Just an FYI for you Broncos collectors on the Mane.

I'm not feeling this sculpt. It just doesn't capture Bailey, to me anyway, seems to thick around the waist/hips and the legs. Just a bad pose for Bailey figure. McFarlane missed it on this figure.

The statue seem to model his pick against Oakland when he was covering Moss. Too bad they didn't have Moss in the backgroud just looking at him with his arms in the air.

The definitely could of done better though.

Yeah I agree, that pose does not say "Champ Bailey" when you look at it.

To be honest, if you compare the Mcfarlane to the Ingencorp you have, Mcfarlane wins by a mile. The Igencorp one you have doesn't even look like Bailey. (It looks like they accidently put Shannon Sharpe's head on Bailey's body)

The Mcfarlane looks very realistic to me.

Damnit, I was thinking the same thing about Sharpe and then I came down and Gonzo was saying the same thing. In less than a months time I've found myself agreeing once with Footsteps and then agreeing with Gonzo, I need to stop coming around. This place just depresses me.

So tell me, how does it feel to be right for the first time in your life? Huh? Must be an amazing feeling, you know.

I like it. He's intercepting the ball, how can it NOT be Champ Bailey?

They should of had him catch the ball at its highest point. That would have looked more athletic. But it still is a pretty good piece.

The only thing missing from that Champ pose is Troy Brown standing behind him with his arm out.

I gotta get the Bailey, Elway and the Jack Bauer figure.

Of couse I will buy this to go with the collection. But, he looks a little big in the belly for Champ. If you looked at this body without the number, I would have called it #26 Tatum Bell (oops, he got traded, let's turn it into Champ).

Looks like they missed on his nose and eyes also. Excuse me for saying this guys, but Champ has a "pretty" face with a small nose. They did well to hide that face under a shield.

I do like the shoulder brace though.

I'm buyin.

Does it look like Ty Law in a Broncos uniform to anybody else? The thought of that makes me not want to buy it.

That elway one is cool but why are his legs spread apart? Not accurate of his throwing motion.

Any Elway figure should have him running, or in mid throw.

I like the setting of the sculpture.

Bailey has really made a name for himself by robbing people of TD's. It's kind of his signature.
