Sauron Legendary Scale Bust

[The Josh]

Sauron saturation?

A statue, helm, and a bust and that's saturtion?

 

[Seretur]

Well, how many other polystone versions of just that one character can you think of?

 

[RoboDad]

And they're not going to be doing any human likenesses, so this was an obvious choice, I guess!

If that is an absolute certainty, then that's good news for me (well, for my wallet, at least). No humans, no legendary sale to me.

Outside of those two. None.

We have way more Gandalfs, Frodo's, and Aragorns than Sauron.

This bust is absolutely gorgeous. Incredible detail in the paint - it feels like Sauron is staring out at you from inside - kinda creepy actually. And a very dominating size.

I think the Legendary scale busts are focusing on the creatures at first - not sure if they have plans for human/hobbit/elf characters in this scale. Good question for Ask Sideshow!

 

[Darth Loki]

LOTR PFs? Is that a product line that Sideshow used to do?

Tell me about it. I actually wish I hated Frodo right now because I'd be getting out of this line. But nooooo. He had to look much better in person didn't he?

I'm just really bitter right now. I really shouldn't even consider getting this bust but it may be too great to pass up. Of course I'll go through a retailer though and save some dough.

I'm sure it is, Dusty, but for me it doesn't offer anything significantly different from the 1/4 scale helm (other than a bit of shoulder armor, and a larger size). The reality is that there is no face inside the helm, so the bust is nothing more than empty armor. That just doesn't do anything for me.

 

[Seretur]

Actually, the "no humans" rule applies to the SW 1:1 line, right?

I got a bit confused there, sorry.

Oh, and Robo? Should there even BE a face inside that armor? Seeing as how Sauron just escaped from Númenor a few years prior to that. I don't have my books with me -- was he fully incarnate by the time of the Battle of Last Alliance? I honestly can't remember.

(Better. Paintjob. Than. The. Helm. Way better.)

Kinda like a 12", a life size bust, and PF :maul

Darth Maul is the schiznit baby!!

Darth Maul is the schiznit baby!!

HEY, we actaully agree on something

 

[customizerwannabe]

No doubt I'm getting it as I own no WETA pieces, but I still would love an elve or a hobbit. Now I really doubt they'll be making any.

It's a day to celebrate then.

I must say I was hoping for a Balrog or Ringwraith bust, but Sauron suits me fine. Though I never intended on collecting the legendary scale busts I was really impressed with the scale and quality when I saw one for the first time. I have no doubt Sauron will look amazing up close and personal.

 

[Fritz]

I'm sure it's going to be very cool but it reminds me of the Sauron Helm by UC in that it's a large scale Sauron head. Since I'm not collecting the Legendary Scale bust line I guess it just means there's another Marvel PF I can spend my money on since it seems that there is no love for LotR PF at Sideshow.

 

[The Josh]

Sauron QTVR Looks really amazing!!

 

[customizerwannabe]

Looks kinda skinny to me. Like a pencil neck.

 

[Deadly Dagger]

I've got the Sauron statue (love it)...helm (love it) and mace (love it)...but thats all I need...still considering the ML tho...I still would have prefered an Orc.

 

[KAOSINLA]

I've been debating the ML Bust for a while....This release now makes my decision easier....Sauron and ML it is.

I've got the statue and the UC Helm.

I think I'm going to sell the UC helm on ebay and pic this bad boy up...as long as my girlfriend can live with it (she bought me the helm for x-mass last year). I don't have the room for all three, and this look much nicer.
