Wow that's huge!! I don't think I have enough space to display him that's for starters. The sculpt seems okay and the paint is fine but it doesn't have the quality of what I would want to collect (yet again, good enough quality for a figure this size = GSC price tag)

Looking to the pics again will probably just pass on this. The similarity with the character is pretty good but I personally want a full statue, not a piggy bank. That makes it lose the appealing of the overall thing. Just too expensive for something that is a piggy bank first.
Hoping Sentinel makes his version! Although I would prefer the Armored Titan first.

There's no way I'm buying any Colossal Titan before I get a Jean scale. Also, this was "meh" for me.

It's a good size, the sculpt is ok, it's a freaking piggy bank, strange overall. I'll wait until I see better pics Reminds me of the 24" Stay Puft Marshmallow Man bank, they are about the same size. Seems like BIG characters are being made in that hollow/rotocast style now. I actually have the 12" diamond select Staypuft.  That Bandai Colossal piggy bank dosen't look good to me. Look at it compared to what gsc put out. Not that i'm gonna blow 500$ on a statue... |

Just got Mikasa in! Currently experiencing a headache from putting her together. Had to use super glue on some parts so they would stop falling off but after all that work, I'm very happy with her. She looks great with the Sentinel line really complimenting their vanilla poses with her dynamic one. Probably gonna end up getting the rest of the GSC line as well  Took some quick pics on the phone so excuse the quality!   |

Great man, finally you got her! She's lovely.  I haven't glued anything but the left supplement connector can't be put into the left rear axel hole. I guess you had the same exact problem, right?? |

Yup, that's the one that made me reconsider collecting and life itself  Really loving her, couldn't be happier! |

On the topic of the Colossal Titan, I just discovered this bad boy. I love it but the price is $600-$700. He's 56cm tall (22 inches) so he's pretty massive. Definitely worth it more than the GSC one, but a lot more expensive than the awesome piggy bank Bandai wants to give us. A bit stylized but he looks badass and Figma's would look pretty awesome taking down this guy UMCF Colossal Titan  |

Those BIG statues are crazy. My friend spent about $1500 on the 24" Sideshow Optimus Prime Maquette exclusive.  |

Yeah i see nothing wrong with picking up a GIANT super good looking statue for $500 when people are dropping that much money on sdcc goku all the time anyway. |

A bit stylized but he looks badass and Figma's would look pretty awesome taking down this guy UMCF Colossal Titan Imo the Bandai's version is the one who looks closest to the original art of Isayama. But as I said I don't like all the visible joints and that it's a piggy bank. I will just pass on it. While the Plex doesn't look bad, I think the proportions are off, I would then choose the GSC, even with all the unnecessary details that doesn't exist in the original design and it's half of the body, the coloring could be much better too. Either way, it's too expensive. Passing on everything right now. |

Either way, it's too expensive. Passing on everything right now. Same for me. I have yet to see something that has a good sculpt with a decent price point. The Bandai one comes close but not enough for me to get it and same goes for the others. We'll get a good one eventually...I hope |
