Fantastic 4 diorama

[TOE]

I agree 650 was pretty high for that one.

I think this line has potential. A low ES of 350 to 400 would kick it off right on such an essential exclusive.

i don't know. The price is pretty low so i am thinking around 750-800.

Ultimately, it depends on how many pre-orders come in before the time they decide to set the ES. If 500-600 people have pre-ordered by that time, then an ES of 750-800 seems logical. But if the number is only 150-200, then an ES of 750 would be more than a bit excessive.

Sideshow has kept the Marvel dioramas with very low edition sizes on the exclusives for the most part. I doubt there are that many orders for this item since it has so many mixed reviews. It's not a Vs piece and it's not a bust. It looks great but is not making that "must buy" vibe other items get. Not to mention money seems to be tight with a lot of collectors these days.

That's why I say closing the ES quickly on this exclusive would kick off this line well. If indeed it is a new line.

I'm with you, 100%!

Doesn't anybody else find the faces of Reed en the Magneto statue very similar? Pablo Viggiano is the artist of both, and of course he has a certain style, but I find them too similar....

 

[SolidLiquidFox]

Magneto has Cyclops teeth problem from the Vs diorama. Otherwise the likeness is acceptably different.

I just noticed the prototype pics have been removed from the product page. I hope they do darken the shade of The Thing a bit.

I second that!! I love the piece, but I wanna see some legs on the ever lovin' blue eyed big guy!

That's what I want too! I don't think adding two extra legs would make a big difference!

I think we just have to accept these diorama/busts for what they are.

I had hope the Gray Hulk diorama had a symbiote Spidey in it but that did not happen either...

At least you got a grey hulk dio!

Sounds perfectly logical, but that's 'undercover' inclusive ordering, isn't it? Personally I prefer that the ES is set before the item is going on sale, like it was the case for the Grey Hulk Vs piece. - to bad SSC lacked the communication skills to make sure all their collectors had a fair chance at it. Good that they made things right with the SSE Ardeth Bey 1:1 and the Grey Hulk PF.
As far as I'm concerned, the exclusive on this Fantastic 4 diorama (?) IS essential. I mean, what's the essence of the 'invisible girl' besides all the other essential female qualities we really really really can't do without?

Personally I don't think $190 retail plus shipping for any bust is "low". I would have been interested, and it's great you get all four characters, but the price is close to that of a 15-20" comicquette full statue, and that just doesn't sit right. At $100-125, these would have been much more appealing.

So maybe I should amend my earlier post. YES I'm interested in smaller scale statues...but not at the same PRICE!

[SolidLiquidFox]

Seems to be a motion globe by Diamond Select.

I wonder how much it is....

YOURE RIGHT SOLID AND ITS 150$

 

[carbo-fation]

Not bad! It would look nice besides sideshows!

 

[Viking28]

Could of been good but don't like it esp Richards face, not a fan of Diamonds paint apps either.
