Oh man.... I think that video just pretty much sums up the Iron Man 1:1 bust fiasco relatively well

If I paid $700 and received something like that, I'd imagine me having the same reaction.
But congrats to those who got good paint on this.
Hopefully bad publicity will keep Sideshow on their toes and ensure we get top quality on future stuff.
Wow, this is blowing my mind if this is what you guys have been accepting as "quality" all these years. I've been collecting 1/12 and 1/8 scale models for about 9 years now. If your not familiar with these, they are BIG about a foot to 4 feet long in some cases. With EXTREAM attention to detail, the bigger the more detail is usually involved. I have cars with real leather seats and functioning dampers to open doors, hoods, trunks...ect. These cars are worth between $600-$5000 in some cases. For that money dust doesnt even dare to come near. They have MIRROR paint finishes....better than the real car. Now these are pieces with much labour and time dedicated to their completion. Are you trying to say SS cant put the same kind of attention to detail into their stuff....especially when thats what they pride themselves on?
Thats ridiculous, this bust is clearly a rush job......probably painted in 20-30 minutes or so. However, if im wrong and their was much time and dedication put into these paint jobs........then SS.......you need to fire your painters.
Below are a couple pictures of my 1/12 scale (1 foot long) Lamborghini Diablo I got a month ago. Look at the paint job on that thing....the interior,dimensions....everything.....THATS worth $700 (literally the paint job alone was $700). So when I see SS claiming this thing has an AMAZING paint job, they should deliver. It just isnt the case, I think they should raise their standards a little more.

That video is going to receive a ton of hits...
Funny as hell too!!
It's tragic to laugh at it but the music and words used were so hilarious!
It's a must watch for any collector.
