Not a huge fan but having a Kristen Stewart bust would be <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" /> <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" /> <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" />
New Idea... Twlight Busts? - The Death Curse - 05-18-2009
If you're someone who likes the Twilight series at all, I will automatically assume that you have rock-bottom standards in terms of writing and art in general and I wouldn't trust - or ask - your opinion on anything, at anytime. That's my view on this subject.By the way, Kyle is right. That type of piece probably wouldn't sell worth a crap around here...The action figures sell because they're affordable and easily available in Hot Topic and Spencer's Gifts stores all over the country. But...a high-quality BUST of any Twilight character? That's a bit risky.Furthermore, I honestly don't think anyone from that film acted well enough in their roles to be immortalized in bust form...Cheers,Ryan

There are tons of Twilight forums to market on and based on the amount of money my own wife has spent on Twilight things... there are MANY others who'd shell out a couple hundred for a good bust.And if you're forming your opinion based on the acting job done by the actors in the film... I could name you many horror characters that don't deserve immortalization either, then.

I actually read all the books, as well as the Harry Potter series. My wife sits through endless hours of horror for me, so when she has in interest in soemthing like that I read the books, watch the movies, etc., so I can be part of that experience in her life. Books weren't horrible, story isn't a bad idea, just written for a younger crowd, similar to the Potter books, which I liked.

I haven't read the books but I've seen the film.... MANY times. I actually like the film more and more each time I watch it. I just don't have the time to read such long books. I did start to listen to an audio book of the first one but didn't make it all the way through due to needing to do other things. It's not the best written series of books but I do think the story is interesting. My wife finally found something she can get involved in and I support her 100%. It's awesome to hear that others on here have wives that are into it and have support of their husbands in their interests. My wife puts up with a lot of Freddy-talk. So, I decided to "put up with" my wife's Twilight talk.... at first. Next thing I know... I'm watching the DVD several times on my own simply because I wanted to and enjoyed it. It's not for everyone but nothing ever is.That'd be awesome if one of the many talented sculptors in this forums would take on that project. It'd be a new challenge with, I think, a lot of potential profits.

I would think the movie is too recent and being a mainstream film rather than a "B" movie like a lot of horror films, and with the hype of a sequel, that any unlicensed merchandise for sale would bring a lot of trouble.
