1/2-SIZE MYSTIQUE BUST

$225 HERE

UPDATED: I previously posted that this bust was life-size but I was mistaken. It's 1/2 scale.

I like this short-lived incarnation of Mystique. Writer Sean McKeever was doing great things with her in her now-cancelled monthly series... and from what I read, had even greater (IMO) plans for the future. I was really sad when Marvel decided to cancel the series. While the first few issues sucked, I thought it got really good from #7 and on.

Recommended Mystique:
Mystique #7-24

or the collected editons:
Vol 2: Tinker, Tailor, Mutant, Spy (with great art by Michael Ryan & Manuel Garcia)
Vol 3: Unnatural (with great art by Manuel Garcia)
Vol 4: Quiet (with great art by Manuel Garcia)

* Mystique #1-6 written by Brian K. Vaughn

Yeah.... you see the model posing, not the character.

It's not lifesize. It's in the Legendary Scale Bust series, so it's scale 1:2 (half the size of a normal bust).
