My Sideshow Collectibles Silver Surfer showed up at the door - the other day. (I got it as a Birthday gift from Jamie, who ordered it from my good friend Tommy at Best Comics.)
The phone pic (shown here) does not do this piece justice. The pictures at Sideshow do not do this piece justice. He is BEAUTIFUL. This piece is simply incredible. He is massive. (When I put in that he was 24", I didn't register the fact that he was that tall.) This Sideshow piece has me looking at other Sideshow Collectibles - which tend to run on the pricey side of collectibles.
Hmmmmm....should I change my existing orders with Tommy to other Sideshow Statues?
Anyway. Originally, I wasn't a 100% certain about this one (click here to find out more), but now that he is sitting in my office and I have taken a good look at him, this Silver Surfer is awesome! I have to change my recommendation. He's a Hot Buy!
Sadly, I know not who I will leave it to in my inheritance.
Robert: Yeah! I think it would look good in my house. I know I dissed it before, but I may need to print a retraction.

Told you so (back then) :-)
LOL! That you did.
Joerg - You were spot on. I would really like to get your 2 cents on some future pieces.
Good call.
I'm honored! :-) Thanks!!! I have a lot to say about some upcoming Sideshow comiquettes!! ;-) Have you checked out the upcoming Hulk, Nightcrawler & Colossus pieces???
PS: about the Silver Surfer statue: I don't know how you guys feel, but even the head scuplts I didn't like in the previews are awesome in real life! My favorite set-up at the moment is the "angry" head with the "fist" arm! What's yours??
OK! I got to see this one up close and personal. It’s very nice. I still think I like the Bowen sculpt better.
I still want the Apocalypse bust from Sideshow.
