I take no blame for these 3... 56k warning.

...seriously!
We was up town today and we were browsing FP and my lovely lady saw the Joker bust. She fell for him big time

Bless her cotton socks!!

She was adamant we had to have him and "he's no good without Batman" she says so, here they are.
As it happens, while we were looking at the joker everyone in the shop actually stopped to look at him as well, his outfit with the velvet coat and real cotton shirt is so eye catching, truly.

Hope I'm not doing to many picture threads here but I like to see others stuff so I figure you guys might like these.

And I did say 56k warning

Roll call

Flash has blown out his detail a bit but his clothing is velvet and cotton

Bit better maybe..

The Batman

Detail is great, again Velvet Cloak!

Eyes have it.

He's awesome!

This guy was my indulgence

Closer Clarice

Closer

Behind you


They're not in situ yet, I have some floating shelves to sort out tomorrow and they will have their own area

Obviousy Cap is Sideshow LSB but the other guys are DC Direct.

I have to say, my missus has the best taste in busts

Nice pick ups, but why's Batmans wearing lipstick. Cross-dressin night? Also, don't like his bugs life eyes.

Will always love that CA

Bats gets a lot of hate, I've heard him called a cookie jar before now

I will put some 'grease' paint on joker's right ear, it's far to clean but I'm pretty impressed with em overall.

that's awful, making you spend your hard earned money on collectibles

no wait, that's wrong .........your a lucky so and so

I'm not a big fan of dc direct's stuff in the past and have have been put off them as a manufacturer so only have a small section for their pieces, mainly mini busts, but some of there newer stuff is starting to look a lot better, like your joker

Oh noes.

You never offered that one here did you mate?

Would have loved a crack at that, it's a much wanted piece in my house.

It was at the start of the year, Got £250 plus the LOTR Cave Troll LSB which I had been after for ages.

Re: I take no blame for these 3... 56k warning.

Get him off the net and he's about £150-160 Ebay already has him going at £225 (UK price but much cheaper on Ebay US, not to many on there though) and I expect him to go up a wee bit more.

Play, if they get stock is saying next week at £160.

I got a 'deal' as I bought 3 but that is what he goes for.
You know as well as I do he's limited at 500 pieces and 400 for the ex so he's getting harder to track down but FP had 1 on the shelf.

Buff, don't let the missus hear you say that

In hand he's not bad as such, yea he's a bit off here and there but to be honest he's growing on me and lets face it, not everything can be perfect but he's good enough for us and goes well with Mr Joker.

When I get a few more Bat stats I'm sure he'll blend into the background quite well

Re: I take no blame for these 3... 56k warning.

I like Batman in the first pic, maybe it's just the close-ups that don't do it any justice.
