JAWS

[Toastybuffoon]

I have quite a few sideshow statues from Lotr to Starwars and so far this is my favorite among them.

High praise indeed. Makes me look so much more forward to this piece. I snatched one through flex-pay on second chance. I'm really excited for this.

Sorry, a little off topic but this picture made me go :eek

You can display Jaws either way as the base has a set of grooves around the outside edges and the plaque fits into those grooves, so it can be displayed pretty much all around the base.

Bruce itself only fits one way into the watery stand, its a nice tight fit too, no wiggle room at all. The finish on the outside of Bruce is a little uneven, some areas are very smooth to the touch, others are a bit rough, like a fine grade of sandpaper, but nothing major. The eye's look a bit different then the photos, but can hardly tell the difference.

Think I am going to have to get a larger bookshelf or pedestal for him, I have the Macfarlane Jaws set as well, was hoping to somehow display that below Bruce.

Is that pic for real or just a photoshop?

Ive seen that before and I may be wrong but I THINK its actually a dolphin.

Either way, its a very cool pic.

That's the same plan I have. I have the shelf all ready with the Mc Jaws sitting at the bottom waiting for the SS JAWS.

Will be getting the Mc JAWS 3D poster also.

You know what, I think you're right. It never clicked in before because I was doing a search for JAWS and my mind just connected surfer with shark. But now that you mention it, it does look like a Dolphin.

Yeah, I'm almost positive that is a dolphin. I've loved sharks forever (even had a pet shark at one point), and their shape is instantly recognizeable. That's not a shark.

Blueprints are nice, but really I have no place to display them, if someone had the room, they would frame up nicely, but my office walls are already taken up and I was lucky that the Jaws Poster fit in that corner.

I thought for a little bit about displaying it my theater room but Jaws wouldnt look right with Starwars and Lotr sideshow statues. I have a good size hallway leading to the theater room but it has my dvd's, books and other statue's taking up all the wall space and that doesn't even take into account of the framed movie posters up all over.

Good thing my wife loves me

I'm thinking about a display group for Jaws that will include the maquette w/ one of the blueprints hanging above it (professionally framed of course). I'd then like to get a PF or sculpted 1/4 Quint and get an original Jaws insert poster to go with that.

I like pdx's idea of having a tasteful grouping for my favorite movie series of all time. I'd have a LOTR area, Star Wars, Jaws, Indy, Alien, Terminator etc. all w/ artwork, statues, and a VERY minimalist/classy approach.

Gruson's display set up is very well done, I wish I had a room that I could work with like that.

We have an unfinshed third floor my wife and I are in the process of finshing and she mentioned at some point to make it into a collectable/library set up, but honestly I'd rather have a nice master bedroom with a corner soaking tub.

Came home early today, Jaws looks great here in the office, dog keeps looking at it though, maybe he thinks Bruce is gonna steal his dinner.

Pic's a dolphin. Tail is wrong for a shark, dorsal's a tad too thin and high, and pec fins are way too forward...
Great photo though. Does make you react...

Evan, your updates mean much fella. Thanks for them.

Tomorrow for me! ONE....MORE....DAY!...
Can I stand it?
It's like waiting for Christmas morning when you are a kid...will I sleep tonight or spend all night excitedly thinking about it...


More to come....

:chew SWEEEEET!!!! :chew

 

[Gruson]

Well get to work on the display already El!

I am one step closer...just need that damn shark to hurry and arrive!

 

[pjam]

OMG Gruson, that is so sweeeet looking.

 

[figuremaster_les]

Gruson! For once, I am fully ensconced in you and your fellow collector's Premium Format/Statue/Maquette world! And ya know, right now, I am just fine with it!
No "dollies" today!

By the way, that is one sweet display area you got there! Looks like a movie museum with a stolen object!
Mine's not nearly so crisp and clean, but it will do for now! It's just to my right...

Til tomorrow's pics, enjoy this badly photoshopped nightmare!
TOUCH THIS! Heh, yeah!

 

[DarkArtist81]

Nice pic! I would crap my pants!!!

There is nothing I fear in this world more than sharks.... they terrify me beyond words. Beautiful.... but scary as Hell.

 

[figuremaster_les]

YEAH! Oh...yeah...

It's big! It's bad! It's IN DA HOUSE!!!!

View from my computer...ahhh...basking in his glory!

Get you some!

More Brucey goodness to come!
Good luck all! Hope your's arrive soon!
