True, most of the LSBs and 1/4 scales do sell out eventually, take the recent Rogue/Cyclops PF which are sold out in a day/days. If Carnage and Venom 1:1 had a mainstream look, they would have sold out too. The ES and price of this was just set too high so may take a while but the sculpt is decent.
You're not taking into account that this is G.I. Joe. You can't use format comparisons here, you have to know the license and how it sells. It's not Marvel, not by a looooooooooong shot. I'd guesstimate that a good 75% (and I'm probably lowballing that percentage) are cheap Hasbro collectors that denounce everything not made by Hasbro. Swing over to Hisstank.com for proof. It's hard enough getting Joe collectors to spring for $100 high-end action figures. Look at the statues and dios and how not-well the PF and com are selling. You really think Joe collectors are gonna pay EVEN MORE for a low ES 1:1 bust? 
Either way not producing 1:1 busts will not stop me from getting some eventually, I have been wanting to commission some for a long time, and maybe if my skill gets better I can just make my own!
True I have always agreed that most Joe fans are quite cheap, no arguing there, I know these wouldn't get made anytime soon, of course the other lines would have to gain some momentum before venturing into 1:1 busts, but it could be a possibility. If the bust is an amazing sculpt I can see it selling out eventually, there are many cheap Joe collectors but also plenty of rich ones too that are willing to drop $ on Joe collectibles. I cannot be the only one....
As for the statues already, SS just needs to put out what the on the fence collectors want, good quality 1:4 statues, dios always have had a bad rap, even though the 2 released so far are quite good. The PF Cobra Commander isn't what many wanted, I like it don't love it, still ordered but was hoping something more similar to the cartoon lighter blue outfit etc... This Snake eyes is beyond awesome not too many complaints about the actual statue except for size and price. If this was 1:4 I bet it would have sold out, NRD's don't help much either, takes awhile for most items to sell out nowadays.
Whatever lets you sleep at night.
That's the definition of a collector. Doesn't have to be the format you collect.
Too bad that Sideshow specializes in statues, then. Because you know that's always gonna be their preference. They're better at it than they are at 1/6th scale, and I suspect they make much better profits with it. So it makes sense for them to do statues over figures if you think about it in the abstract. Though I do agree that Joe fans generally want figures, if figures were all folks were gonna buy, then Sideshow might as well hand the license over the HT IMO.
I'll usually kick it out of courtesy to others who may want to use it. You don't want to experience backsplash from a urine-filled urinal, or to deal with the strong smell if pee-pee in the air.Well....
The only time I fail to flush is at the stand up urinal in a public restroom, and that's done purposely to avoid touching the handle.
I would think this and Stormshadow would at least be made.
