Godfather 1:1 life size bust

[IrishJedi]

Sometimes Sideshow can be such a huge disappointment.

They are so freakin hit and miss

It really does look a lot better in the video... so maybe this is more a function of the overly lit pictures than a horrible bust.

What's in the picture and video almost don't look like the same product.

 

[Batty]

If you're going to show a product for the first time and want your customers to spend around $500 for it, you want the best looking representation you have. With the preview photo they didn't do that. If it is just a matter of lighting or paint apps, they should do something about it. Why spend time and effort on a product to have it ruined because it isn't presented right?

And sure it looks better in the video. It's hidden in shadow.

I am gonna use the age old quote: "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all."

Its not completely bad. The clothing looks real nice. To bad about the likeness though.

 

[Agent23]

$500 ? uhh....no.

 

[King Darkness]

A 1/6 scale figure should never surpass a 1:1 bust. Never.

Oh Sideshow......

 

[NASEDO]

The Paint apps look bad, SS needs to fix that problem. The PF figure also looks bad.

 

[The Tuggernaut]

Ugh. Nasty.

Fail. Fail. Fail.

 

[Kratos]

I'd rather have 10 of Don Vito in 1:6 Scale HT form than 1 of these 1:1 Busts

 

[The Ween]

He looks like he needs some Chapstick.

I don't collect busts so of course it's a pass for me.

I'm waiting for the 1/6!

At least some of the angles are more flattering; I think the problem here is more the paint than the sculpt. I do LOVE the tailoring and the base - very classy.

Indeed...
the sculpt is good...its a bad paint job though!
looks too glossy.

I agree about the base- nice touch!

I think it looks ok... but I agree, I think the paint apps are hiding the great sculpt we saw previewed. Cmon Matt, let's you and I order this puppy!!!

I am sure I will eventually, but I don't feel the need just yet.

 

[usswanker]

I dont like it at all!

I wonder how opinions would change if the edition size came in at 50 or even less...
