SideShow Collectibles now has a life-size bust of
EMPEROR PALPATINE. It looks pretty cool, but I don't know why anyone would want this thing in their house... to each their own. Regardless of placement possibilities, it does look pretty cool! Palpatine looked freaking amazing in
RETURN OF THE JEDI!! It's a shame he looked like a
cheap halloween mask in
EPIII. I suppose the
EPIII version was a step up from the
original Emperor in
EMPIRE STRIKES BACK... but Lucas changed that in the
Special Edition. But I don't acknowledge the Special Editions... I suppose I don't really acknowledge the Prequels, either. So yeah, this bust looks awesome! I'm glad they went with the
JEDI version instead of
EMPIRE's... the
only other time Palpatine is on screen. You can buy this bad boy
HERE, for
$500.

Neat !! Palpatine's mask was seriously crap in ROTS !!
Like you said - it looks pretty sweet. But I don't know anyone who would put a life-size head of Palpatine in their house. Do I?? hmmmmm.....weeellllll......nnnnooooo..... I don't think I do. And I know more than a few SW fans.
wher's the as-crack head???,...I wanna see that giant ass -crack for a head like in "Sith"
-seriously WTF,..who didn't notice that when they were doing the bust????
the "ass crack" head is a bit much with the sculpt. but I think the lighting contributes partially to the assyness. plus, he always had that funky brow:
