Marvel LSB line

[JosephCPR]

...

Ghost Rider, and Green Goblin should be showing up within a week. Sabretooth, Thing, and Red DD hopefully soon. All of these, I'm sure will change this list considerably.

What about R/G Iron Man??? He's THE bust imo

I agree, it iooks great but I'm not having much luck tracking one down. All the other ones I mentioned previously are coming my way.

I had one for you man, but sold now. New owner is very happy with it.

Would everyone agree that on the IM and SIM it isn't that unusual to have some minor paint rubs on the bust? In my experience, majority of ones I've seen have disclosed that, or resulted in an unhappy buyer that finds paint rubs when opening their described "Mint" bust.

Unlike the SIM PF, there was no recall on the IM bust and I thought they had the same offending plastic trays.

I have checked my SIM top to bottem and front to back. Have not found one scratch, paint rub, paint chip or defect yet!

I'm wondering if improvements were made on the SIM LSB packaging. I can speak to the original IM LSB from personal experience... as the second owner. Hoping to hear how it was originally received from rest of collectors that were in this hobby then.

I appreciated your full disclosure and wish more sellers would be like you. The pics you sent looked a bit more than minor and for me, I like to keep the pieces in my collection "mint" as possible.

The hunt for me is half the fun anyways.

The SIM is packaged very well with black foam and many, including myself, have commented that they have received perfect pieces with neither scuffs or scratches. I think SS learned from their comiquette packaging mistakes.

and the original IM LSB? I know you can't answer that, but I know I read about problems of that piece during shipping.

 

[JosephCPR]

I've got r/g Iron Man LSB and received it in mint condition despite those awful plastic trays. I might be one of the lucky ones that have never had a problem with a Sideshow piece.

 

[The Mike]

My IM Pics. Just received it....looks amazing. I'm hooked into this line!

 

[The Tuggernaut]

great pics!
that looks awesome!

 

[makkari1]

man, i haven't commented on this line yet, but i just recieved some of these today, and i have to tell ya, i'm impressed. nice detail and compact, making them easy to display. unfortunately mine had some damage, but at least i finally have the chance to see some in person.

funny how all the pics in the world sometimes don't help until you actually see something in person. of course i shouldn't be surprised, after all it is a sideshow product.

 

[SquiderM3]

Congrats quadcent, the line is very impressive and ADDICTIVE. At first, I only wanted a couple of the better ones but now find myself going for the complete set. Their detail and ease of display makes it a very attractive line.

 

[quadcent]

yeah, hey squider, do you want some battle damage versions? one of a kinds, i've got 6 or 7 of them now. i think the green goblin started it and then bailed out, the rest of them just couldn't stop fighting with each other. old GG was the only one to make it ok.

 

[The Tuggernaut]

I don't have any LSBs with me yet. I have Venom on order, but I need a few LSBs
until then. Which ones do you guys recommend? I know I'll be getting
Iron Man (and maybe SIM), but who else?

 

[quadcent]

i would get the characters that you are a fan first. then branch off into ones at you find attractive. the one that would get though is ghost rider. out of all the light up features that sideshow has made this one is the best. imo

I just canceled my orders for Sabretooth and Venom yesterday. They could end up being the two best in the line but I really need to be more selective in what I buy. If I went through with the busts I'd want to get a statue to display with them too. While these are much more displayable (space wise) than 1:1 busts it really starts to add up quickly. I need to stick to my original plan of just getting my favorite characters.

 

[Bodie The Cursed]

bad move dude!

Agreed.

The first and second rules of Freaks Club are:

You don't talk about Freaks Club.

But the third rule is:

You don't cancel until the last possible moment. You never know when you may win the lottery, a rich long-lost uncle dies, etc.
