At first glance, I did not like this bust and was half tempted to place it on my pass list; however, after looking over the statue, I think it is a rather good representation of Apocalypse - both the drawing representation and character personality. The statue encompasses everything from origin, to personality, to disdain.
Points in Favor:
* Facial expression with a sneer – as it portrays a sense of him looking down on everyone-
* Armor – which goes all the way up the back of his skull
Points Against:
* Eyes come across merely as marbles – which fits the character, but I don’t like
Personal choice for now: Neutral.
(Zimm 10/03 Update: The more I look at this, the more it is moving into a "Buy." As soon as I hit "Hot Buy", I will probably order one for myself - which will probably be too late by then.)
This is a personal preference bust, and my preference would be the Stealth Iron Man Legendary Scale Bust, or if you can find it at a reasonable price, the Iron Man Legendary Scale Bust.

I'm just going to say, I really like this bust. If I had an extra $200 lying around and had room for it and was looking for an Apocalypse piece, I'd be all over this thing.
However, since I don't have any of the above, I'm with you Zimm on the Neutral rating.
On second thought, anyone to trade for a 2 year old? LOL!
I'm surprised you haven't ordered it already.
