Hi guys,
Finally I received my Yoda bust yesterday, HUGE box!!! (also very nice box, I love the Sideshow bust boxes ).
I'll try to make some kind of review, off course, from my honest point of view... so here we go...
The very first thing that blowed my mind when I opened the box was the material... I was especting a ver hard bust like the Maul one, made of hard resin painted, BUT, when I took off the box I was shocked that the material was flexible, not as flexible as a hollow latex mask could be, BUT for a solid bust was amazing... you can easily bend the ears and fingers... really reall cool, but not only those parts BUT you can only FEEL the soft effect ALL OVER THE HEAD... that is something real reall cool, I must admit that is much better than I ever thought...
The sculpture itself is really great... (amazing work there Howard )... you can really feel the Yoda presence when you see it, and that is almost the best you can say of a bust... (It looks like he was alive ... A friend was looking him closely for a while and told me... GOD, it looks like he is going to start to talk...!!! really funny .
The paint work is really really really really great... this is something that surprised me as well, great paint work... !!!
The hair is another great thing... it's made like the original one (If I'm not wrong)... and the same way people do with the latex mask, punching hair by hair... (insane work, I think the makers thanked god that Yoda was almost bolt ).
Those are the very very good things... Now, let's say something I dont like too much...
One of the things that bothers me more is the Stand... I really really hate it... I mean, that stand is great for Maul, cause it has the Ep.I look... but I really think it has nothing to do with the old trilogy one... (like Greedo or Yoda). I think they should have design another stand for the precuel busts... Really hurt the view... (the good thing about this is that you can cover the front of the stand with the clothes , cause it's really ugly for Yoda).
The other negative point about it is the fabrics... they are NOT the correct ones...
Other thing that bothers me a little is the fact they didnt make the other hand... wouldnt be too much work to make another hand, so why didnt they make it ??? No idea :$:$:$
It would be coold if they would include the necklace as well... cause it should go over the hands ... (maybe they forgot it).
With all that said, I must conclude that this bust is really amazing !!! A real Master piece... and all I can say is that it worth every cents ...
Well, that is a small text review.. and now... the pics !!!... : I hope you like them
And now, some reall cool pics about the material... you can see how you can bend some parts easily
