This was originally raised in General Customizing, but thought might be worth seeing in its own place.

Ok so I bought 4 toobs in all.

1. Penguins (for obvious bat-purposes, not shown)
2. Presidents
3. Around the World
4.World Landmarks

Pictures below.

The Presidents are cool busts. As is, they'll be nice background eye candy. Options include finding someone to shrink them (working on that), displaying as is, or using as Legends scale fodder (size comp below). If I customized in Legends scale, I would have already chopped them up.

Items from around the world are pretty cool, as are World Landmarks. I view some pieces as being in-scale sculptures for tomb-raiding and such. Others might also be museum pieces, and some could also be scale model, 3_D map accessories, etc...

These photos are brought to you by world famous adventurer Knighthawk.

Image heads clearly not in scale

unless you move up to this one

all the toobs have a rotating globe at top. this can be modded into some dio fodder as well

Interestingly, Mt. Rushmore heads are in-scale. But aside from George, it would take some work to get the others to be useful if you chopped it up.

So anyway, pretty interesting stuff. I got each of the toobs for $10 and change with free shipping via Amazon Prime. I don't know how that compares to in-store

I found some of these at AC Moore.

I grabbed the set with the Coliseum and Great Wall, but didn't see the busts anywhere.

I will have to go back and get the Egypt artifacts one.
