Yes -- I actually have that, too -- forgot that one. But the Batman image in my head is more of the cape flowing down from Batman like a waterfall, hitting the base at almost 90 degrees and flowing horizontally over the base, down the edge of the base and 90 degrees on the the shelf. It would look silly on a standing Batman, since the cape would seem too long -- but maybe on a Batman perched on a Gargoyle, where the length on the hanging cape is longer than the distance from Batman's head plumb-line to his feet (since he's kneeling).
Another cool one would be a Hulk throwing a piece of rock that has been ripped from the base like a piece of pie.
The notion always being to push that 4th wall barrier.

On the one I have, the base is rotated a few degrees counter-clockwise. It
was not until I posted the picture that I noticed the little Sasquatch face
peeking out of the lower right of all the critters Narya has become.

Although I don't have any statues, busts or such there are a few statues I would love to see.
The Celestials!
Large scale similar to the large pieces I've seen of Galactus. They would look cool!!!
How about someone commission a Galactus vs. Celestials?

Garett, sadly I own just Snowbird.
These busts are something that I have tried to resist,and I have been successful so far, but I cracked finally. Like an idiot I think I'll chase down the rest of AF now that the prices are sky-high.
I also own the Iron Fist actually, but I bought that when it was first released quite some time ago.
I remember that you posted pics of your Alpha Flight busts on this thread, and I haven't forgotten that you have JLU figs I have yet to find. Hmm if I didn't know better, I would think you're gloating, sir. :)

no no no, I was just trying to get a sense of who the biggest AF fan on the board is (after Ryan of course... :)
The sad thing is I got into the AF busts quite late as well (only taking the splash after Puck was announced)
I paid over about $125 for Guardian <cough> <cough>
It will also be interesting to see how my JLU collection fares now that it is Target exclusive

The Target exclusive nonsense is very frustrating.
I still need Vigilante,Obsidian,Deadshot,Barda,Volcana,Hawkman,
Mr.Miracle,Fire,Ice and now this...
AAAAH!!!
-Sadly, $125 seems to be the going rate for Guardian. But I plan to rob
a bank soon so I think everything will work out for me in
regards to my owning a Guardian bust! Wish me luck, I'll
let you know how I do. They have internet in prison, right?
