I just checked him out after seeing a posting over at TORN that there is this 360 view of the statue for the gift set.....he looks kinda....Gollummy I guess:

I really like the detail around the eyes, but the rest looks kind of cheap. I guess you can't expect more considering how it is mass produced.

[diasyjazz]

Yeah..he eyes are VERY detailed and look pretty bloodshot actually..I guess to show the pain that Golllum has endured throughout his life and transformation from Smeagol to Gollum.

I will be interested to see it up close and to see what the material looks like.

[PsYkOoOoO]

yea...and notice the detail on his back?those scars...

[Lasgalen]

yeah, they look cool! Well, not if youre Gollum they dont --you know what I mean.

The only thing I don't like about it is the strands of hair. The lines look a bit thick and clumsy.

[PsYkOoOoO]

agreed...like....drawn accidentally

Those guys make a great head/shoulders of Gollum. Same site, different area. I'll link to the page, and try to get an image here.

That looks AMAZING. But yeah, like I said before, we can't expect something that is SOOOOO mass produced to have the same time and effort put into it. That bust is most likely a limited number, I'm assuming?

Yep, there will be only 1500 of them, at $250 USD per. It's pretty big too, almost a foot tall. I don't know if I want to wake up and see that staring at me!

[scifi guy]

i like the eyes...but i'm not fond of the rest of this statue

[Dogbert0228]

On second thought, maybe I don't really want something that scary/disgusting in my room glaring at me forever...

[Kaluza]

The not massed produced one is 100 times better. I'm probably wrong but doesn't Gollum have a little greyer skin tone?

[PsYkOoOoO]

im not sure bout the grey skin tone...but it looks awesome indeed...i really dont want that thing in my room...freaky

[The Moose]

i want that, but i am not going to pay too much for it though

[PsYkOoOoO]

yea..250...too much
