Just saying, I think PCS would've done better.
Dude the extra Guardian floating sculpt is pretty amazing. Hoping they get the paint right unlike Henrietta from their Evil Dead 2 Ash. Everything else on him was amazing.

Jack Burton does look pretty decent with the jacket on but jacket off looks a little cartoonish.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Snap

Cost me another $200 USD (including 2-way shipping) to get the head repainted and the jacket/trousers fixed. NOW it looks like Snake/Kurt from the movie

I won't be getting Sideshow's Jack Burton because I don't like the face sculpt or costuming and don't think the movie is anywhere near the same league as EFNY or "The Thing".

Sorry the MacReady wouldn't work out financially for you Jerry. As an FYI - I'd buy NECA-sized (7") versions of ALL the actors from "The Thing" - and I'm sure I'm not alone

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

I respect this. Congrats! You should post a picture. Just for Kurt Russell reference

Apart from the forehead, I don't see much difference between the Trev Grove forehead and the sideshow one
