It simply looks awesome!<\/p>\n<p>Diamond Select\u2019s 1:2 resin scale bust expertly replicates its sunken, angular cheeks and distinctive T-shaped visor. The approximately 10-inch tall bust also reproduces the tops of Mando\u2019s original pauldrons and chest plate, his flowing black cape, and the curved butt of the disruptor rifle strapped to his back.
