i am hiding my credit card so i don't get this.

[Defunct]

Wow!

Beyond it just being quite neat that there's Alpha Flight swag like this coming out, that's a really cool bust. I'll be very tempted to buy it.

[birdygirl]

How handsome! :D I'd like to see this in my living room!

(And if they make one of Snowbird, I'd definitely buy that one, also! :P )

[Le Messor]

Damn! US$50... Why can't they make one I can afford?

OTOH,
It will be mine. Oh, yes, it will be mine.

Cripes, for a second there, I thought it said it was over six feet tall. :shock:

Oh my...how tempting...

[PWalk]

If I get my income tax refund by then it's mine.

I've added 2 additional images of the bust in AF.net's Latest News (http://www.alphaflight.net/latest_news/index.php)

Wow, this bust looked good to begin with, but is so much better now with the metallic red paint.

I must serioulsy consider picking this up.

[Ben]

I've already asked my local comic shop to order one in for me

Ben

[Scarlettspiderg]

I´ve got my on order as well!! Cant wait.

[birdygirl]

I also have an order in for this beauty. It's going to look great in my house, (either in the living room or on my bedside table!). :D

Looks like I had a missplace quotation mark on the links to the big versions of the images on the news page! If you wanna see the nice big versions, it works now. Thanks to Del for finding the dead links!

Ben

[templar]

Oooh, with shiny variant... :D

[Phil]

Did anyone ever get this in the end?

[Ben]

Did anyone ever get this in the end?

I ordered one from my comic shop, dunno if he has it in yet, haven't been able to make it in there for a while.

Ben

[birdygirl]

I ordered this months ago, and haven't received it yet, either. What's up with this?

[Phil]

That's okay, as long as I'm not the only one.

[JohnnyCanuck]

Did anyone ever get this in the end?


Ouch!! and this a family site.....!

:P hey! that's Phil's line! :D

[Phil]

That remark resembles me....

[Phil]

Dredging this one up from oblivion...

I've just been informed that there are two versions of this bust, a plain red and a metallic red version.

I've got the metallic one, what's everyone else got?

[DelBubs]

I just took a trip to AF.net (http://www.alphaflight.net/news_archives/jan-feb_05.php) and only just noticed that Ben has pics of both. Too answer the question, I have neither, but have a plan to aquire some AF busts through certain religious festivals and the kindness of a good lady wife.

[Phil]

I just presumed that the first pic was just the lighting making it look plain, but apparantly not.

[Ben]

mine is the metalic one

Ben

[DelBubs]

I was gonna say that lighting could be the cause of the first one looking different, but couldn't convince myself that that was the case.

I'm prolly wrong.

[Ben]

Where did you hear that from Phil? I had assumned that the non-metalic one was just the paint moc-up, as that pic was around before the shiny pics. Does anyone have a non-shiny?

Ben

[Phil]

The owner of my old LCS said that he'd had both versions in.
I haven't got any proof, hence my asking to see if anyone actually had the non-metallic version, but he's generally reliable.
