Queen Studios: Alien Life Size Bust

[Greyskull]

If they only have to paint 199 of these, then they should be able to nail the paint.

Your optimism is admirable. Still there could be 199 ways to f**k it up.

Specfiction sold out.

Just going through scenarios in my head when this shows up and my wife finds out I bought it.

Same here! LMAO

Good luck trying to use the same old line, "oh this thing? I've always had this"

My wife usually notices absolutely nothing, but there is not a chance in hell I could get this slipped past her lol.

Sometimes, it'll be 'I ordered this thing years ago. Sorry, I totally forgot about it.' Lol!

 

[marker2037]

Haha, I've used that one before. It gets the eyeroll.

When my ridiculous Prime 1 1/3 Predator arrives, I'm going to try out the old "I've always had that, I've just moved it" Pretty sure that'll work When it inevitably doesn't, I'll just buy her something, that definitely does work! That said, she hasn't noticed the 1/4 JH yet and that's pretty huge!

Sounds like beesub has done other work with Queen Studios that he can't discuss yet. Excited to see what it is!

Beesub did the now canceled CoolProps Alien Warrior maquette.

Looks undersized tbh. My Bruce Hansing bust is HUGE. I believe it's the same height as this and doesn't have a torso. Also a good 20cm longer too.

Have attached a screen grab of the unboxing I did as a size reference.

Will do some proper measurements when I get home if people are interested.

I almost bought one from Hansing. It‘s a beauty but really light. I wanted a heavy statue. I bet Queen’s is going to be near the 100 pound mark.

Yeah it is very light indeed. Easily the lightest statue I own.

You have a beauty regardless. Sometimes lighter is better, especially if it’s displayed on a floating shelf.

 

[Galactusz]

Oh, I officially preordered the Queen Studios Alien Bust.

Production pieces...

 

[Patriot666]

It looks so clean. The dome looks perfect! Not the most flattering lighting for judging the paint work though.

 

[Blue Liquid]

They look fantastic for production pieces. Don't tell me these companies have finally learned....

Well, these latest pieces also cost as much as a used car.

Production pieces...

I‘m in love. I had to cancel the Prime One 1/3 Jungle Hunter for this…and glad I did. This will be the centerpiece of my collection.

Thanks for the pics…

I was quoted a trade in value of $11k for my 10 year old, beat up, 100k+ milage van lol. Used car prices are as inflated as these statues!

Van prices are crazy atm. I paid £16.5k for my 2016 lwb Transit connect with 35k miles just over a year ago. The delivery guy told me that the dealership had sold it for less than I paid three years previous. So somebody basically got a top spec Transit, ran it for three years, put 35k miles on it and then made money. Beats leasing if you can get it....
