Body language experts would have that those who converse with arms crossed over their chest are being defensive. Those who choose not to engage weary more on the anti-social meter.
Pity and question then the plethora of characters immortalised in bust. As many of their brethren and comrades have seen, those who choose to open up lose their arms.
Defensive?
Perhaps. But at least those that are guarded remained armed for future battles.
Stare me down?
Peruse the gallery of mini busts for faces trading spaces courtesty of Bowen Designs, Moore Creations, DC Direct and Marvel Select.
No busts (mini or otherwise) are expected this week.
Complimentary to busts, there are statues.
From the pages of Uncanny X-Men and as a member of Canada's premiere super-team, Alpha Flight introduces Shaman. Also known as Michael Twoyoungmen, he was trained as a magician from his grandfather in shamanic tradition and given a powerful medicine pouch, one that housed a pocket dimension and from which he could draw forth nearly anything he could imagine.
Another superb display of quality statue craft. This mini bust was made by Bowen Designs and sculpted by Jim Maddox. It is 6 inches tall and limited to 1500.
Busts expected to ship are taken from the current week's shipping list.
