Whoa ...first Wolvie, now Deadpool. Very nice!

Both sculpt look exceptional, too.

So this would now constitute a line, right?

 

[AC_808]

Yup, looks like a line to me.

Hopefully it doesn’t tip over

I'm disappointed that they can make something like these two that look amazing, but put them in such a small scale. Both of these would be amazing in 1/4 full scall figures and not tiny busts.

Yea, good point. Would've loved to see these 2 in full body 1/4 scale statues.

I like this one

Other than the bases (which do look like tipping hazards) these look pretty cool. Fantastic detailing and expressions, not to mention more space friendly. I also like that they have arms.

Will have to see how they're priced. I've thought for years that someone should produce a line of 1/4 scale busts. However, I'd prefer to see a nice mix of B-list and C-list character like Bowen used to make. That said, Sideshow is notorious for starting and ending lines, so wouldn't get too excited. To be honest, while I personally think these could be great, I tend to doubt the profit margin will be there at least to SS's satisfaction. Most collectors want full sized statues, which limits how deep into the catalog producers are willing to risk going. Busts are good because they can supplement a collection, give different takes on characters, and/or appeal to buyers that have limited space or budgets. So it's a shame that nobody has really been filling that market niche until maybe now. However, if Wolverine and Deadpool busts can't turn a tidy profit, good luck with Omega Red, Wrecking Crew, Enchantress, etc.
