    It didn't come cheap, but I just love this bust.

    sk







    Absolutely fantastic. To be honest I'm not much for busts and action figures/statuettes, but man does that Frankenstein bust make me jealous.

    Thanks, guys. All credit goes to the artist who painted it, Steven Parke.
    I could have bought the bust unpainted and paint it myself, but there's no way I would even consider going for this option.
    Don't think I'll ever come across a more impressive version of my #1 movie monster.

    Very happy to add this to my collection. Out of the prelims this was the one I wanted most. I hope I'm lucky enough to have a corresponding remarque for GE.

    Default DTII S/L PC

    My new pride and joy. A flawless S/L DTII to expand my PC DT set to 5 books. This book is 30 years old and it's perfect. Thanks go to David at Bett's Books. My goal is to have a PC set from II-WTTK. Looking for DTIV, V and WTTK PC copies.

    That price is more than extortionate.

    Congrats on another piece of the puzzle _PCC_.

    I added one of my all time holy grails to my collection. For me this is the definitive copy of Frankenstein, no artist can or will do it better.





    Huge thanks to Dave (divemaster) for helping me out with this one! I never thought I'd own a copy.

    I 100% agree on Frankenstein. The labor of love that Bernie put into that book is undeniable. That book is on a short list of books I'd like to add to my collection.

    Cross posting from the bookcases thread as this is my favorite acquisition in a while! Not so much a book, but I finally got new bookcases and like the way it all turned out. Feels good to have room to expand!
