Myersjessee Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 Well...despite past failures I decided I would break down and buy the bookends. I got some money for Christmas, and decided I wanted to give them a shot. I must say, I am pleased. I know they were expensive, but upon arrival, unlike with the Masterpiece...I was greated with a heavy, well made, piece of art that looks really nice on my desk. Considering it is their first forray into porcelain, I am very impressed. Ratings - Paint job - very nice...B+...could have been an A, but they botched some details...still looks good from a distance Sculpt. - B ...love the pod...the VF1S has some issues, but I do like the motion to it..however realistic, i think the sculptor caught the emotion of the moment...thumbs up Overall...I would give it a B...not a stunning A+, but definitly well above the F- I gave the Masterpiece. I hope this piece does well, and they do more art....it would be nice if they made more, and made them cheaper...but definitly a nice change from the norm. Quote
Myersjessee Posted February 1, 2004 Author Posted February 1, 2004 I love the motion and flex in the Pod..very well done! Quote
Knight26 Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 nice, can we get another shot of the interior of the pod, looks like some blood and gore in there, cool. Quote
MrDisco Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 very cool! thanks for sharing the pics. Quote
Tiny Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 It looks cool and all, but are those windows the valk is shooting through suppose to be in human scale? If so they're pretty huge! Quote
UN Spacy Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 How much does each bookend weigh? They seem to be pretty sturdy......great pics btw. Quote
gnollman Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 Very nice! Wanted to pick these up myself, but funds don't allow... thanks for the great pics! Quote
Myersjessee Posted February 2, 2004 Author Posted February 2, 2004 I dont know the actual weight, but they are heavy....bought the same weight as a bottle of wine....plenty heavy enough for books. I can shoot some more pictures of the interior when Iget home. It's just a mass of "guk" with what appears to be blood and smutz everywhere.... Quote
Anubis Posted February 2, 2004 Posted February 2, 2004 Thar be minced Zentran in that there pod. Quote
Jolly Rogers Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 Are they made of porcelain? What if there's an earthquake and they fall off the bookshelf?! Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 Nice, I might consider buy a set now. Are they still for sale or is it still sold out? Quote
StealthLurker Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 Nice! Where did you order yours? I had a pre-order at valk-exchange but they didn't get enough so my order got cancelled. Quote
Southcross Posted February 3, 2004 Posted February 3, 2004 (edited) They have been sold out for quite some time now. Good luck, you might try E-bay. But expect to bend over if you really want to get one. EDIT------ Please correct me if I'm wrong... these were a limited run right? Edited February 3, 2004 by Southcross Quote
