heck, i still call cds albums!

i am just surprised that this amp suit was announced (july, 2009) well before avatar was in theaters and that it has not yet been released yet.

I saw this thing at the SF Wonder Con in the Zbrush section. Not exciting whats so ever. The pics that Sideshow takes makes it look 1000 better then what I saw.

Wish this would have sold out last year when I pre-ordered it. Comes out in 2 months and still no update on materials or finished product

It looked pretty good in some videos I saw from comic con

I took some pics of the thing. Though it's damaged but the thing is still a must have. There are LOTS of details on it.

Thats because its made of plastic..and SS knows if they put that they will probably have 100 cancellations soon after. No one is going to pay $1000+ for a plastic statue.

Well judging from the pics provided its bigger than I thought and look like it has quite a bit of intricate detail with metal as well. Im excited for this thing again!

 

[Master Wayne]

This is made of plastic? Seriously?

 

[tnaig001]

pros and cons actually, but yes, $1000+ for plastics alone does seem somewhat steep.

 

[Bezzerkerr]

I passed and never looked back. Pretty cool piece though, if i could get it for 30-40% off, I may make a move.

It is fine to extrapolate! but you have evidence?

Instead of saying that it is plastic. Ask by mail to the manufacturer, it will be much more useful.

 

[lightwave000]

Yeah, what he said!

 

[Doctor Who]

Just pre-ordered mine on a Belgian site.

The production photos show that its made of plastic. Maybe the base is polystone..but that's it.

you cant tell what the production photos show. It looks like mixed media to me

 

[Atheris]

Looks plastic to me.....do you think if that was polystone he would be holding the cockpit with only 2 fingers
All of the weight from this thing will be in the base, not the actual suit.

Chris

 

[tnaig001]

well it might make more sense for plastic since it would be less top heavy and depending on the type of plastic less prone to breaking at fragile parts?

still wish it cost less if production cost was less.

Just like the 1/2 IM maquette. Anyway, it's an awesome piece to own. If SS can paint it right.
