These are absolutely gorgeous. I don't collect stuff like this but they look really creative.

In particular, I'm in love with these little dioramas on the back of the busts:

Also wonder how much that axe will cost. Neat idea for a collectible! Almost wish Playmates would make their own affordable/dollar-store version. :lol:

Kong will apparently have silicone skin and individually punched hairs... and yeah, the axe is separate.

Since my current loan is almost paid off, I'm seriously considering getting another loan to get the Godzilla bust and just keep my credit score up.

These busts are really neat looking, especially with those cool little dioramas tucked in. But I can’t help but think taking on debt (be it a loan or credit card or what-have-you) to buy one is particularly sound financial planning. Unless you have the cash to pay it off whenever you want and are just taking advantage of zero interest or something.

Jesus Christ.

I shudder to think of what this'll cost.

Wow that diorama is impressive! The atomic beam light-up sequence is amazing. I imagine it will be a pretty limited production run.
