For those that don't venture over into the Junkyard and haven't been following the ongoing thread there, this is an Emperor Palpatine 1:1 bust sculpted by Cyberman and finished by Bjorn at Elm Studios. There were only 10 of these made and I am very honored to have one of them in my collection. I tried to take a couple decent pictures to show it off, but I'm an admittedly crappy photographer. :unsure

Anyway, here are the best pics I've been able to take so far:

And just for reference sake, here's a shot of Ian McDiarmid taken on the set of ROTJ:

Thank you. It might have been better with the Sideshow ROTJ Vader bust but that is displayed somewhere else alas.

That's true, though the world is never at a loss for forecasters so I'm just waiting to hear what the next dreaded "date" is going to be...
