Fair enough, but to me the Transformers toys themselves are already aesthetically pleasing. In fact, I find them more aesthetically pleasing than a statue or bust -- I suppose because I enjoy the inherent engineering, design and fun behind each figure. When I look at a TF figurine, statue, bust etc., I don't get that.
But I think a big turn off for me when it comes to most TF statues/busts is the price. PVC figurines, decoys, MyClones etc. are just as inanimate, but they're cheap. Also they're small and don't take up that much shelf space. As I have a somewhat largish TF toy collection, I'd rather prioritise more space to toys than busts/statues.To each their own.
