Just wow!!! When I first saw that I thought it was an actual picture of Elijah. Are you sure it's a statue and not a picture? 
That's just simply amazing!!

It's an awesome piece, would love to have picked one up at the time but damn short of money. The guy that did this is amazing, so come on sideshow time to step up!!

It was around $500 I think for a raw bust, looking at well over $1000 for a finished bust. Damn sweet piece to have in your collection though.

So it's an actual life size bust and not a full size statue? Even for that stunning of a likeness, I think $1000 is just too much in my opinion.

doing it...for all of us
$1000 seems like a bargain for that amount of detail, clothes, etc.
Compare it against Cinemaquette statues.

how about a lurze or orc 1:1 ?
if they did just one to a high standard and an edition of no more than 500 i can see it selling no problemo...

I nominate Elm Studios to make my long-awaited 1:1 Boromir with 33 points of articulation!

I don't really want to knock this piece, since it's very cool. But I never thought the likeness was THAT good. It looks like a real human, yes, but it actually doesn't look much like Elijah Wood to me.

Here, these might help
I don't need your glasses, thanks.
Seriously, you think that looks exactly like Elijah Wood?

if sideshow missed the target like that frodo then they shouldn't do lotr life size busts.
i am still praying sideshow can find a skulptor better than the Don bust!?

it looks like he's a rocker from some 80's hair band.
this is the reason i generally tend to stay away from human characters, it's just so hard to get them right on.
one of the few i seen lately that ssc nailed right on though, is the anakin pf, he looks damn good, and of course aragorn is pretty close.
but it seems with most of the others there's always something just not quite right about them.

I think if it was at a different angle and the bad, and you got rid of this:
If the cheesy 80's mullet wig were actually a more accurate mop, you'd see it better. I think that's what's mainly throwing it off. And your comment was:
While I don't think it looks "exactly" like Wood, I can definitely see him in it.

I agree. I think that looks quite good.
