Incredible Hulk Comiquette Exclusive

                                       

Your World Collectibles is proud to review the Incredible Hulk Comiquette from Sideshow Collectibles. Limited to 500 pieces the Incredible Hulk Comiquette is based on the art of Ariel Olivetti. Weighing in at 30 lbs and at almost 24 inches high this statue is massive. No Hulk statue would be complete without huge muscles and this piece delivers, the detail and definition is trademark Sideshow. I belive the dynamic pose is what makes this piece stand out head and shoulders above the rest. Landing after one of his monstrous leaps the Hulk destroys the ground beneath him flexed and enraged, the pose gives the impression that he's about to make lite work of another one of his enemies. The paint on this piece is excellent but in my opinion I would have preffered the Premium Format olive green to the lighter green, nonetheless an Incredible Comiquette from Sideshow. I proudly present my Incredible Hulk Comiquette EX, until next time, Happy Collecting. LK7

Pop Culture Shock M. Bison

Hey guys Alucard here with a review of the powerful M. Bison by Pop Culture Shock(PCS) and sculpted by the talented and owner of PCS Jerry Malcaluso. This is such a beautiful sculpt and a demanding pose. The two bison's I have here are the regular and the exclusive the difference in the two are the color fabric. They both come with two head sculpts and three different hands for alternate display, originally the bison only came with one head sculpt but Jerry the nice guy that he is listened to his fans and sculpted the second head and threw it for free, the original head is the grin sculpt. The bison measures 19" in height and weighs 20lbs, this guy is not light. The three hands sculpt are beautifully done and very detailed. My favorite is the hand with the psycho power flame flowing around his hand. The hands stick to the arms with a magnet but for some reason the flame hand doesn't stick to well and it's because its heavier then the other hands imo Jerry should of used a stronger magnet. The head sculpts are also held by magnets. Putting the shoulder pads is kind of a pain but all you have to do is move the fabric around until you see the two holes where the pegs go through Jerry made slits in the fabric so that you don't break through the fabric. Be patient and you'll get it. Some people are complaining about the fabric that Jerry used that it's too thin but I think its perfect cause it hugs all of bison's muscles perfect. If your iffy about getting this you shouldn't think about it and just get it cause imo you won't regret it especially if your a street fighter fan. Enjoy the pictures and don't forget to check out my video review have a great day and always happy collecting.

Hulk 1/2 scale

Hi guys alucard here with a review of a beautiful sculpt, the custom made 1/2 scale hulk!!! this statue is so sick! why I say that you ask? you gotta love all the detail on this piece, like the skin the muscles the wrinkles on the skin its just absolutely beautiful you can also see pours on his skin!!. Sculpted by The Art Department in the Philippines, Hulk measures 60' inches tall with base and 53' inches without. He's made out of hollow fiberglass material for lightweight and durability he also has glass eyes and fake eye lashes he is painted in multi-layering translucent and automotive paints for realistic durable skin tone . Since I mentioned the base earlier lets talk about that. It looks like hulk just landed and broke the concrete and is ready to fight, the base looks so real and the sculpted name plate looks awesome too. If your a hulk fan(or just a collector of very good quality statues) you gotta get this, the only thing is that its sold out so if you can find one congrats on your purchase. Click on the pics to enlarge them and enjoy the video. Happy collecting.

Aayla Secura Mini Bust by Gentle Giant

I would like to introduce you to my latest Star Wars bust addition, The Aayla Secura mini bust by Gentle Giant Ltd. This was definately a sleeper piece when first distributed by GG, The Aayla Secura mini bust has shown a strong following on the secondary market and for good reason. A superb sculpt, The Aayla Secura bust shows an essence not usually displayed by the Jedi. Sexy and well textured between smooth skin and gritty textured sculpted leather and her defensive yet confident stance, the piece is definately one of the greats by GG. This particular piece is #1033/4250 but dont let the edition size fool you, finding one will be difficult, in the mean time enjoy mine. Happy Collecting...LK7

DeadPool: (Pearl Thunder Studios Custom)

    Now it's time to get serious here folks. There are many fabulous sculpts & amazing representations of our favorite heroes & villans out there in the collectible world. I am not trying to downplay any of the wonderful works being done out there by the pros. & amateurs alike BUT...
     Here is the "Custom" DeadPool statue by Pearl Thunder Studios. I will say it now, HANDS DOWN the best DeadPool statue made to date. Bar none, end of discussion! He is 1/4 scale & is Ltd. to 50 pieces. Attention to detail is what makes this statue. Guns, grenades, knives, swords,sheaths, straps, belts, bullets... all the goodies are on this bad boy and completely breathe life into this statue. A true work of art in every respect of the word.


As you look at the sculpt from all angles you will see that there is something new & great around each corner. He is ready for an all out war thats how many weapons he is carrying. A very neat feature is the addition of a real metal sword blade which is in he sword he has in his left hand. Also bullet casings riddle the rusty floor he is kneeling on futher making this statue tower over many in terms of exclusivity & uniqueness.



    This satue comes all the way from the Phillipines for those wondering where it can be obtained. Like I wrote before it is Ltd. to 50 pieces so it is very hard to come by. If this statue has any drawback (it is a nit pick actually) it would be the paint on it. It  looks different from your Sideshow/Bowen paint apps.It's more of a matte finish and things like the gun and  the black areas on his body are a bit dull but nothing so major as to affect the overall grandness of this statue.

    If you can get your hands on one of these DO IT! You will not regret adding his wonderful piece to your collection. Heck I will go as far as to say he will rival & maybe over take your #1 spot!
Till next time...Happy collecting- Loop
