Can't see no probs with the head or neck, my concern is, the waist sash, shouldn't there be the extra where it's wrapped & tied around his middle...? Or am I being too picky and maybe thinking of the 60's & 70's Doc...? I've even thought of buying a piece of gold sash and wrapping it around his waist just for comparison.

I didn't pick this one up but am certainly thinking about getting one after reading this thread. Thanks for all the comments guys.

Anyone have pix of the "Kirby-esque spots" on the gloves?

This sculpt is one of the centerpiece FS in my collection. I would expect no more from the founder of the greatest non-team of the 1970's, The Defenders!

I'm glad there's more love for this FS on the forum, MadJazz!

Just got mine yesterday. Sweet! I think it's a great piece.

Dr Strange was never one of my favorite characters, but the pictures convinced me to buy.
When I recieved it I was pleasantly surprised that it looked more amazing in person! The base and cape are just amazing

One of my favorites for sure!

I see where some people say the neck looks a little elongated if you look at it a certain way, but I would not change a thing on it.

It's certainly better than most of what's out there, like the character or not, it's just a great all around piece and if you get it or just see it you'll understand.
Sorry BC but the head on the sculpt looks fine to everyone but you, you probably don't like the leaf on Michelangelo's statue of David.

Wrong again. He's just honest. BC hits the nail on the head. He's not the only one that sees the problem, it's been brought up before. So unless there is some history on Dr. Strange that says his father was Mr. Fantastic or a damn giraffe, his neck is too long. Other than that it is a real good sculpt as I saw it in person. Paint was well done. But that elongated neck wasn't a photo angle problem, it's the same in person. For those that have it, good for you. Some just want others to justify their purchase.

Fact is, if there isn't anything wrong with Dr. Strange's neck, then there isn't anything wrong with Hawkeye's ankle either. And the neck is the more obvious of the two just because of where it is on the human body.

Good review though.
