Awesomeness!!!!!

I'm going back to my motherland this coming December for my monthlong holiday. I'm very excited this time because I will be attending Manila Comic Con and Philippine Toy Convention. What makes it more interesting is that a lot of local artist/exhibitors will showcase their TALENT..I MEAN TALENT
look at these photos below...
I will definitely get one of these

These are life size bust:):)

I think they do made to order custom figures

Stan Winston once said that modern toy and bust sculptors are comparable with sculptors from the Renaissance.

...sculpting marble seems harder than sculpting plastic to me though. ;)

They did'nt (filipino sculptors) compared themselves to Micheangelo:)

They r all pretty impressive! It shows how talented us Filos are!

Now if only they had a TF bust...

yeah i was just wondering how much something like that would go for, i guess it would depend on how much work is involved in what you want made, but around how much do they go for? if anyone knows..

I'm guessing between $300-$400..I'm still waiting for their reply RE: Heath Ledger

just found out that Michael Jordan was long sold out (they only made 23 in total)

25 maximum per bust/figures

heath Ledger joker is limited to 15

Ooooh pasalubong! :D

BTW drop by the Transformer Philippines (TFPH) booth and say hi to the guys there. Look for Mr Marc Cerbo or Azrael Colladilla - founders. Im sure they'll be happy to entertain you and help you in scouting out the bargains. Just tell Marc you know me - Neil. Already mentioned that your attending the Xmas Toyfair to him.;)

They're in The Philippines my friend hehehhe..1 peso is equivalent to $34(at the moment, come December I'm hoping $40)

2 ft figure is priced at P6500 = roughly $200 not bad considering Bowen?marvel statues will cost us $200 (limited to 500.. how can be 500 limited?) Philippine made figures are limited to 50(maximum)

I managed to place an order for this one ( I still want the Heath Ledger statue though)

Work in progress pictures..looks MAD!!

Scale is 1:2
