Maul 1:1 Bust...F*****G AWESOME!

[Deak Starkiller]

I don't own one personally, but I have seen this in person and you truly need to in order to get the feel for the piece. Truly an amazing piece considering the price too. Great work SS, :chew .

Those displaying with the hood... how are you dealing with all that extra hood? The shoulder pieces fit perfect, but there is enough hood there to fit two busts into!!! If you bring it up over the forehead as it should be, you have a ton of material in back that drapes everywhere! Any thoughts?

Gather it around in the front.

All that extra hood lets you put nice folds and gathers between the ears and the shoulders, adding to the illusion that the hood is part of a larger garment.

The average yearly salary in the U.S. is $39,795.33 per year, so $200 doesn't have much of an impact.

I'd imagine that the average Sideshow collector's salary is higher than that given the expensive products most of us on here buy.

WHAT????...I wish I made 40k a year...I must be poverty level if the average person is making 40k ....of corse I work for the state so maybe that explains it....

 

[Dusty]

Yeah, 40K seems high to me too... I think, instead of an average (which takes into account that small percent who make millions per year, thus skewing the averages), it might be better to find some stats of how many people make (pre-tax) 0-10K, 11K-20K, 21K-30K, 31K-40K, etc. I would guess - and this is just a guess, mind you - that the majority of families in the US are in the 21K-30K range... which definitely makes $200 a stretch to the budget, what with all the other bills there are to pay each month, while also trying to put some into savings.

Collecting has never been a cheap hobby, no matter what it is your collecting!

So by that reasoning I'am not poverty level anymore....Thanks Dusty I feel much better now.........

Yeah, I agree. I've seen what the actual average is and I believe it was something like $25k a year. I know pre-tax my salary for teaching next year will be around 33k.

My Maul bust arrived today but had several places that had been damaged or paint defects.

 

[Mini-Rock]

Sorry to hear that Viking. At least with SS, you're in good hands.

That really sux but SS will take good care of you....

 

[Viking28]

Thanks guys!

 

[Darth Loki]

Just give them a call and everything should be taken care of for you. That sux.

I inspected mine very closely when I got it and there's nothing wrong with it. At least no one can say his arms are too long.

... his ears are too long!!!

 

[dunedain]

WOW

:maul

That's all I can say about this piece

 

[KitFisto]

Yeah, I agree. I've seen what the actual average is and I believe it was something like $25k a year. I know pre-tax my salary for teaching next year will be around 33k.

25K a year is the average? Geez, that much can be made working at McDonalds. I am not trying to insult anyone in anyway, but 25K a year seems WAY low to me to be the average national salary unless they are including every high school kid working min wage jobs which can bring the avg way down.

Of course I guess cost of living also determins how much people are paid in any area of the country as well. I just live in Northern Va which is WAAAAAAAAAAY too expensive these days.

North Viriginia explains it, thats one of the highest cost of living areas in the nation. We are seeing the some flux here in the Traingle (Raleigh, NC). Considering my wife is a teacher an her starting salary is 26,000+ the average seems accurate. Also take in account that Walmart is the nations largest employee and then seconded by the Federal Government, between those two groups, the average takes a big hit...but back to the topic....

Here is a pic of my Maul with his hood...

True enough.

And that Maul is SWEET. I really need to get one on ebay.

Another great pic Azog. I like the new avatar, too.
