Man that bust looks great, congrats man! I'm happy with my Twilight blue version, but this SS bust would be hard to pass up. The one, only, single thing I don't like about the Darkness bust is that it won't fit in a cabinet. I love how you have it on that lit base. Where'd you find it?

Thanks so much everyone for your incredible comments and kind words... really means a lot guys/gals

Wow very epic congrats on finally getting one. It's huge !!!

Thanks Ant, you know as well as anyone how much I wanted this bust god knows how many times I pestered you about it over on facebook hahahaha!!!! Now your getting me back regarding the Wolverine 1:1 bust

Mega great acquisition my friend!

Thanks Darth...about as mega as it can get for me...this piece will never leave my collection

My niece used to be so scared of my Darkness bust, she has since grown out of it, but it was cute at the time.

It was convenient too, cause it kept her out of my collection room.

I would've thought the same thing Chase but my daughter loves all the scarish-like collectibles that I bring home such as the Darkness PF, Predator, Endoskeleton and now this Darkness lifesize bust...you think a 3 year old would absolutely brick it!!!

An impressive piece for sure. Congratulations.

Thanks Shoo

Wao Andy That EVIL its beautiful!!! Awesome pictures. Felicitaciones!!

Evil indeed my friend Oscar thanks for the kind words bud

Re: RobertoBagg10's Display Thread

Well guys, it took over 2 years and many sleepless nights but finally I have found my grail I think some of you may know that I've been searching for the Lord of Darkness 1:1 Bust well it's arrived safe and sound and it is everything that I hoped it would be and more...

Like the Dr. Doom PF, it was a piece that I never thought I'd ever get the chance of owning and for those who have those rare pieces that they are still after, never give up cos in the end a window of opportunity always comes along. I fell in love with this bust ever since I was introduced to Sideshow back in 2012 and like most of all the old school grails, I was always going to play catch up to own my favourites. The Lord of Darkness Bust was the last on my wanted list of grails and I was beginning to give up hope as the ones that came up on ebay were at ridiculously high prices and also the chances of receiving one in brand new condition was proving to be an impossible task.

Well, a few weeks ago I managed to secure a great deal - at least at a cheaper price than I've seen them sell for plus I managed to get one in brand new and undisplayed condition So the bust arrived yesterday and what can I say? The reports I'd heard that this was one of Sideshows best ever busts were proven to be correct...it is a phen-omenal piece!!!! from the incredible paint apps, shading, detailing of the mouth, realistic eyes to the incredible size of his two horns which are fit comfortably in the two slots at each end of the head....simply WOW!!!

The film Legend has always been among one of my favourite fantasy movies and so purchasing the Lord of Darkness Premium Format early on was a no brainer...however, the lifesize bust was always the pinnacle and I just knew that I had to have it The actual Lord of Darkness character means as much to me as say Vader did when watching Star Wars as a child or even Iron Man in the latest trilogy of Marvel movies, hence why it was so important that I never gave up the hope. He depicts the classic demonic figure, that in my opinion, has not been portrayed better in any movie I've seen since...

So Ladies and Gentleman, I give to you Sideshow Collectibles Lord of Darkness 1:1 Lifesize Bust ES 238/250

Thanks for Looking

Plus, as a bonus...here is a really quick, rough and ready YT vid of it too

That's fantastic Roberto! Congrats

Thanks Carey

Sweet looking bust...glad you were finally able to track down a personal grail.

Hey Kris, thanks buddy...took me long enough but I got there in the end just waiting for my Fabri-Tac to arrive and then it's commence Bat Pits!!

Congrats on an epic score Andy! That King of Darkness bust is one of Sideshow's finest and a worthy grail. Awesome!

Thanks Ski couldn't be happier buddy

An AMAZING piece! Congrats on your grail!!!

Thanks Marc

Re: RobertoBagg10's Display Thread *UPDATE SSC GRAIL LORD OF DARKNESS 1:1 BUST IS HER

Nice bust.

wow epic bro

Thanks BR and Shabs

Great piece... I always think all the Darkness items are pretty great.. I almost picked the PF up myself back when it first went up for pre order. Such an amazing look. However I have watced the film serveral times and in it's different forms and I just can't get into it. Thus always making Darkness a pass for me. But it's always nice to see new pics of him. Congrats Roberto.

Hey Jaws, cheers buddy maybe if you watch it an eighth time you might get into it yea, got the PF pretty early on in my collecting days...but this LIFESIZE bust was always the one that I wanted...

Wow huge congrats!
I really wanted this many years ago but my wife drew the line and didn't want it in the house, I settled for the lsb which was great but just didn't measure up, so I let that go. Now the cost is so high there is no way I could ever get one, truly is an amazing piece!

Thanks Patrick yea, there's something abt the legendary scale version that I just didn't like...think it's the face sculpt that looks slightly off or maybe it's the solitary nipple on show?

Re: RobertoBagg10's Display Thread *UPDATE SSC GRAIL LORD OF DARKNESS 1:1 BUST IS HER

Hi there my friend,
First of all, very big congrats cause I love that movie I guess for a particular generation, some movies are like a true grail cause they helped to improve our imagination and creativity. These movies have always great visuals which are unforgettable! Maybe we understand the rich texts behind them later cause we were just child but the strong images amazed us for forever I am 38 years old and when I look at the world of collecting, I see only one thing that these strong visuals are still the KING like Robocop,Terminator,Alien,Star Wars and many more... Ahh and Lord of Darkness for sure So I am very happy for your new acquisition bro And if you don't mind I want to share one of my grails too to celebrate yours

Thanks for the great post my friend and kind words I am just a little younger than you so I completely agree with all your points regarding the movie The PF is another beautiful piece and definately one of the more underrated PF's from Sideshow. I could only pick up a Regular edition so missed out on the unicorn

Sweeeeeeeet!!

Finally got your hands on one hu? Good job man congrats!

I think it's the one piece I will never sell from my collection, it's just got so much cool factor.

I have my boxes in a storage unit, but I remember the box for this being freakin massive.

Chris

Oh without doubt Chris, definate keeper. It took me so long to find one so there's no way I'd ever sell him...and yes, the box is HUGE!!!

that thing will scare the crap of many people, congratulations Andy, awesome piece.

Thanks Wei...many thanks bro

awesome bust 1 u hav been waiting for for a long time holy grail of grails hope ur looking forward to robocop and ur blue fanta lol

Nice one Jay...it's so awesome buddy...come round whenever you like (before it goes back in the box!!) yea, looking forward to Robocop today @ blue fanta

Wow Andy, nice score on this bust! Congratulations my friend and let us know when your museum is open and ready for us to visit with the family

Thanks Eric... as soon as it's open you'll be the first to know no animals though

Great addition Andy. This is one id love to add aswell. Just an insane, mental looking bust with massive presence .

Lucky bugger

Thanks Matt the presence of this bust is like no other...and with the lighting casting off shadows when on display it totally brings this bust to life

Re: RobertoBagg10's Display Thread *UPDATE SSC GRAIL LORD OF DARKNESS 1:1 BUST ON PG4

Major Congrats buddy.
That is very impressive. Love the movie.
Glad you finally got your grail piece buddy.

Hey Remy, thanks for stopping by buddy Seems to be a massive cult following for this great movie and its so nice to have part of it displayed in my collection...thanks again

Congrats!

It's freaking amazing. I was planning to pick up the LSB.

Hey Tam, thanks so much buddy...yea, the LSB version was one that I too was looking at due to the rarity and cost of the lifesize bust, however, something about the facial expression that didn't appeal to me plus the solitary nipple was just bizarre

Congrats. its always nice when you can get a personal grail ticked off.

Thanks Daryl appreciate the comments...hopefully that's it now for my grails...now its all about the future!!

Congrats Andy! One if the rarer gems in the world of collectibles. I've never been much for busts but this one is quite impressive. It looks awesome! Bless your wife. I wonder if she knows you sold your unborn child to pay for the latest additions! Haha I kid I kid

nice one James My wife has been great regarding my hobby, she knows its something that makes me happy but at the same time she'll let her feelings be known when I have more coming in than going out Thanks for the kind words as ever buddy

So the usual ritual for new acquisitions, especially one as big as this one, means this amazing piece goes back in darkness and returned to its box and in temporary storage...the last pics...
