buh his chin is teh huge an heez got eyelinerz I think the face is fine, and it's the best one I've seen. The whole 'eyeliner' issue is because he is the only white male DX (aside from Jack Sparrow who does have eyeliner) and that makes it easier to spot the small gap between eye ball and socket. Also, the pictures posted that make it look bad have all been poorly lit, taken or had flash which spotlights the tiny gap. It's something that I've been hearing isn't bad in person.

Griffin was or was not fucking around? Guess.
Seriously, though, that chin is too damn wide and so is his neck. I will however concede that it's still the best Indy on the market, and I have yet to see custom sculpts (on Sideshow Freaks or OSW) that look any better.

Sorry, Opt - Still not Ford...

Disagree. Best Ford likeness so far. I think it would have been more to their benefit to go for a more posed face sculpt, instead of stagnant pose, Ford has always looked better when he is emotive, and it doesn't help that all the companies that have done him always go for the neutral face.

Hiding the chin and neck helps a lot, but it shouldn't need to be displayed that way all the time.

Hiding the chin and neck helps a lot, but it shouldn't need to be displayed that way all the time. I'm just focusing on the eyes, not the chin. That doesn't bother me. I'll be pricking up a second head, and a second base body to use the map room figure, which will boost the value if I ever needed to sell him.

Well, if you like him - you like him. Enjoy him... What's the timeframe?

Sometime in the next week. I got him off ebay. I'll post pics when I have him. It'll be some time before I post up pics of the map room outfit. I'm gonna hold off on getting a blank body, and the heads are pricey. I don't want to swap clothes, it's a pain...and...weird.

I'm getting the Keaton Batman and Nicholson Joker. Saw Jack at Comic Con and was blown away. I couldn't be more excited for a couple of figures.

It looks like they actually posed JN for the pics, not a figure. I will try to find or make a stand for the long coat and display him same as in the pic with all the accessories.

Anyone getting the Classic Pred from Predators? Where my AVP brothas and sistas at??

Post by optronix on Nov 7, 2011 15:19:39 GMT -5
^Planning on getting it, especially due to the minute differences between the original classic and this one, (it's gonna be more due to the classic than the movie as to why I want him).
Anyway, ended up intercepting the UPS truck, got Indy a little earlier than I would have. HE'S AWESOME. The pictures really don't do him justice at all. I'll post up pics sometime this week, but I'm not so sure I'll be able to do him justice. My only complaint, and it's not the eyes, is the fixed neck, I get why they did it, but I may get a different body for him as others have done.

Getting the classic predator. Really loved the holo accessory and all. Already have the original release, but we are planning on keeping both for now.

Hmmm, just saw that photos were leaked for the as of yet unannounced USO Captain America. Anyone seen them? I hope he comes with an actual Evans head and a torn up army uniform.

Sparrow ordered. TIP - The Exclusive version is the one with the long telescope, but it's 'US Exclusive', so, you don't have to get it from Sideshow. You can get it from other on-line retailers for about 20-30 bucks less, and still have the exclusive scope.
Opt - Very interesting, hope they do have the head sculpt.. Where did you see it?
