Honorable Mention Busts of 2008

Okay, I've worked my way through the honorable mention of statues for 2008, and before I get to the top 3 statues and top bust of 2008, I wanted review my honorable mentions for 2008 busts. The primary criteria for these picks is that they were released in 2008 - which isn't holding true for one of my top three statue picks.

So, here they are - in no particular order:

Black Knight - Red variant
Product Type: Mini-Bust
Sculpted by: Rocco & Vinnie Tartamella and Randy Bowen
Released: January 2008
Edition Size: 700
Still Available for the Holidays: Possibly
Why the honorable mention: It is all about the coloring, and the red cape with the blue chainmail make this piece worth enjoying.

Scorpion Modern
Sculpted by: The Kucharek brothers
Product Type: Mini-Bust
Released: March 2008
Edition Size: 1500
Still Available for the Holidays: Possibly
Why the honorable mention: I have the Mark Newman statue of Scorpian, which is awesome, but I The tail and coloring on the mini-bust far exceed Newman's version.

Apocalypse
Manufacturer: Sideshow Collectibles
Product Type: Legendary Scale Bust
Release Date: October 2008
Edition Size: 350
Still Available for the Holidays: Possibly
Why it is in the top 3 Busts: The more I looked at the statue - the more I appreciated it. Not a fan of the legendary scale bust's size, but I can appreciate this one.
