They've done classic. I want modern. Giant and veiny haha
I am curious to see what direction they go with this one.

I sure hope he's talking about venom. Gonna be hard to beat the last one tho. That one was amazingggggg.... one of my favs by far.
Yeah, a great concept & sculpt, but still perplexing, & a bit of a bummer, why classic portrait GG was not produced. As stated on statue forum, SS should really consider making classic & modern portraits a standard, period. This would allow SS to cover a wider fan base, with each character having two distinctive looks, as their Rhino & Deadpool show with great success. Still an absolutely fantastic sculpt of GG!
As for getting a positive vibe from SS of late, I believe we will see more timely releases for the Spidey line, hoping no more 1 or 2 years wait for next character release. I predict we will see GG go up for pre-order very shortly, with a possible second rogue issued before year's end. I mean I'm still totally confused on why SS never followed up with more character releases for the original Spidey, Venom, & Carnage comi line?! Possibly the 3 best renditions of these characters, completely sold out, praised by all, & then nothing?! Sideshow, please do not make the same mistake,........ ever again.
P.S. We did get Rhino, ................................................................................................................after an excruciatingly long wait. Amen.
They could've done the exact same headsculpt minus goggles and people would've been happier (cough....Emma Frost PF....cough Batgirl PF....lazy)
Gonna put my money on a change-o-hand with different pumpkin bomb as the EX...yawn
I hope the EX is better than that. That would almost be as lame as the modern Thor PF exclusive. How could they not know a COH was what most collectors would want? I wouldn't mind an EX that doesn't blow me away if 2 portraits are included. Look at the Doom PF. The EX on that was OK but hardly anything special. However, if you took away the classic mask, the piece wouldn't be nearly as good as it turned out IMO.
I agree with you 100%. Even a COH without googles would work with this PF.
They had to have known that a classic style head would be the most wanted EX (and most obvious...). It is like they are deliberately not giving us what we want to prove they don't take the boring smooth road (totally unnecessary IMO).
Oh well I'm gonna stop crying about it now. Rant over. Still anxious to see the full reveal.
Then you wouldn't buy the newer 'Classic' version in five years time
Given their policy of making exclusives non-essential, it will be a long shot that the EX will redeem this release for those expecting something a little more classic.
That and Igo said already it's too late.
True, but even giving us a portrait without goggles would be cool. I mean, look at the EX on the Batgirl PF. I think they'd be able to squeeze that in. It's not like a lot of work would be required to give us a COH without goggles.
It isn't the work persay it is also the approvals process... This is pretty far down the pipeline already and they can't risk a delay or get their hand slapped by Marvel. If the head is removeable a classic custom will get made.
Just show & tell already Sideshow!
Add it to the list, Spidey!
