It may be me but that seems a little steep (especially for something that I'll knock over and break...that's based on previous experience). Can you even call these Hammer Busts busts? It looks like they all go past the waist. Isn't there some kind of bust standard? (that's the most times I've used the word "bust" in one day). "I'm cheating him. I'm getting scared for nothing!"

I was thinking the same exact thing, seem a bit long for busts.

There are hundreds of Marvel and DC comic inspired versions, many going below the belt line. What catches my attention is how great the Peter Cushing sculpt is. Me want. Pitt and Lee are just OK , but Van Helsing is awesome.

The slightly messy hair on the Van Helsing sculpt is a great touch. Any physical action in a scene would cause Cushing's hair to go haywire. "I'm cheating him. I'm getting scared for nothing!"

Here's a link to what I've found (so far) to be the best pre-order price for this item http://www.tfaw.com/Profi...lsing-Mini-Bust___390657 For more info on the general release etc. I suggest you Google "Titan Merchandising Hammer Mini-Bust" and see what appeals to you.

Dec 29 11 8:27 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I just thought I'd bump this. The Van Helsing was supposed to be released this week on the 28th, but no. The Dracula was supposed to be released next month and the Tom Baker Doctor was also supposed to be released in Jan....all have been pushed back to Feb. The only figure that has been released was a Matt Smith Doctor. These figures look fantastic, but hopes of actually getting them seem remote. They have announced a bunch of stuff of Doctor Who, and even Star Trek, very little has actually come out. A pity as I would really like to have these figures. It really makes me want to cry. Excuse me......You want me to do what with my what now? Last Edited By: RKS Dec 29 11 8:30 AM. Edited 1 times.

Feb 25 12 4:07 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	These are really excellent but it seems the release date has been pushed forward again. This time to mid April 2012. I saw them displayed at Toy Fair NYC and they are really worth the wait. Hope the series is popular, I'd love to have them do an Oliver Reed "Curse of the Werewolf" bust. Photos of the three Hammer figures, as well as some of my images of the Mezco Universal Monsters prototypes, are at this link.
