Sixteen12 Collectables - Cyberman & Cyberleader

[kevb0977]

I have recently purchased a Cyberman & Cyberleader statue from Sixteen12 Collectables, they are both approximately 12" tall & made from some kind of poly-resin (I believe)..., both look quite good & well detailed although the Cyberleader statue I have been sent has a bit of a paint deafect (hand holding the computer panel/board hasn't been painted properly).

Apart from that minor problem they are both quite nice statues, not my favorite version of the Cybermen, I'd have been happier with the Earthshock style BUT maybe they'll make them at a later date.

Taken a few pictures: -

Hi Kev sounds like you have got some nice items there.

Shame about the paint job on the hand but its not surprising, it should not happen but it does ,problem is we pay a lot for items like this and the quality should not suffer like it does.

Your picture links have not turned out correctly can you repost them please?

Cheers

Hi Chris, I have reposted the pictures, I copied the link off of my computer rather than photobucket, not sure why I did that! They appear correctly now though..., they are both quite nice statues & apart from the paint problem on the Cyberleader I am quite happy with them BUT I definately agree the quality should be better seeing as they weren't cheap.

stunning photos. it is such a shame that these are not action figures rather than static statues.

Stunning pictures indeed, a nice set of figures.
I would like to own them myself but funds are at an all time low now.
Thanks for reposting the links.

nice pictures,im looking forward to CO versions more preferable to statues
shame they did not continue with them as 1/6 figures

I got one of these myself last week. The Cyberleader's "May I present you with this Cyber bomb?" pose put me off I'm afraid, so I just went for the Cyberman.

I must say though that photos do not do it justice. It really is an excellent piece (in my opinion of course). I'm so impressed with the Cyberman that I'm now a little tempted to go for the Leader as well, despite my earlier reservations .

Here a few photos of mine (hope you don't mind me hijacking your thread Kev):

This is a beautiful sculpt, I have every intention of getting one but only at the right price. A set would be nice but space is a major issue with me at the moment.... The 60s design is probobly too archaic and crude for such a premium scuplt
so I love the fact someone has been bold enough to go for a mid-way Cyber design, something other than the overused Earthshock vintage. There's something to be said about going for the one-off design of the Revenge models over the arguably better regarded Invasion debuted design - I like that they've plugged the gap.

Hi Liberator, nice photo's!!! When you have both of the Cybermen statues together..., although they both look equally good I would actually say that the Cyberleader is the more impressive in the flesh so to speak, just thought I'd let you know my opinion as you were thinking about getting one.

Thanks Kev. It may have to wait until next months pay packet though
