I'm curious how big it is? How big is it compared to the size of a US quarter? Or lets say a marble?

Im guessing, size wise that Pure used the small adidas 1/6th size as the cast template so the pendant is approx, give or take, a sixth of the size of an actual superstar! about 4.5cm, with the bale it is 6cm. The pictures dont do it justice, trust me on the quality folks.
I am getting a new chain ASAP so will post pics on a chain, in full effect!
Peace

Impressive in the sense of the detail and craftsmanship. You are one detail-having mother MrP. That said, it's way too bling for me.
I'd have one to put on display, but I couldn't wear it.
Quality work though man. Cakes and jewellry. What will you use to make a superstar out of next? How about a crystal one, now that would be sick!!!

Or if you want to go really hardcore, there are even more radical materials...
Have you ever seen the sculpture 'Self' by Marc Quinn? It's the artist's head made from 9 pints of his frozen blood!

It's cheaper than silver, although probably not as practical.
