They really love their bronze editions don't they, is it possible that they look way better in person?

Sly Cooper looks great but I have never played those games.

Still crossing my fingers for a Twisted Metal Sweet Tooth statue

I received my first bronze statue from Gaming Heads and I would say that I'm not disappointed (check my introduction if you're curious). I believe it depends on what you are "bronzing" as my belief is I think it's okay for statues that are replicating a game's statue. Probably why I am okay with the Shrine of Talos being bronze. I probably wouldn't say the same if they were trying to bronze a character that was in an action pose i.e. the Dragonborn statue that Gaming Heads made. Just my thoughts..

Surprised no one mentioned yet or there is no market here for it as the game just came out but Gaming Heads announced The Evil Within statue of The Keeper.

haha idk he's a new character and i don't find him iconic...

havent played evil within yet, but im importing the japanese steelbook...

i have a 1/4 scale dark knight batman hot toys and when people come by they take a picture of it with the bruce wayne headsculpt lol..

anyway i preordered the Doom statue from gamingheads.

i cant pass that up. i grew up playing doom. started dooming at 4 years old.

think i mentioned this before here.... after school (kindergarden) i would turn on the computer and play. eventually i would get scared, and then i would just wander around in the same area... moving in circles, running in circles. shoot at the wall to see the bullet holes disappear after x number of shots. shoot at the wall with the rocket launcher out of curiosity on the splash damage. shot the wall wall from a certain distance with the rocket launcher - 10% damage.. hmm lets get closer 50% damage!

then watch as doom guy's became bloodier and bloodier as his health gets lower.

then pulled out a machine gun and held the trigger to see doom's guys angry face with different levels of blood. allowed myself to get shot from the side just to see the doom guy's face turn to the side when he's shot.

**i remember cheating to the final level of doom II, when i was 5 or 6 years old... that head scared the crap out of me. i always associated satan and devil with that head.

i did all that until i fell asleep... that was my afternoon nap lol.

then i would wake up by 5pm, and watch DUCKTALES!

btw did anyone else subscribe to a magazine called (i think) CD-ROM?

Each issue would come with a CD, filled with demos. i had one that has Sam & Max, and Rebel Assault 1.

I.. heh threw it out 3 months ago when i moved... i really regretted that...

I know you jest but sometimes it does bother me when people joke about gamers and their habits; how we can be basement dwellers and don't have a social life. I do have a girlfriend, of 5+ years (prob. TMI), but the point I'm trying to make is that why can't gamers (males) have gamers (females) who feel the exact same way about this kind of stuff as well. My girlfriend loves these kinds of things. Heck, her absolute favorite characters are Alien and Predator. She loves H.R. Geiger (RIP) and he is known for some pretty gothic/erotic artwork. We are both social people. We drink, have friends over and we own our own house.

I apologize if I'm out of context or if you think I'm attacking you for your joke. I don't mean to make a serious conversation about it but I just wanted to put my two cents in when people stereotype gamers. I do struggle with it sometimes because I am in my early thirties and at my workplace, I am the only one that is this dedicated to games. Everyone else in the office has children who they buy the games for and obviously there is a disconnect from what interests them and me and I wonder what stereotypes they think I follow as a "gamer".

Again, apologies for using your comment as a platform for my feedback. I hope I didn't offend you. /rant
