Yeah, he looks just as amazing and life-like in that still as he does in the film.

This is actually based on the movie suit. They're just using the comic title to get around licensing issues I think.

Since they film these things to look much different in order to hide the fact that it is a man in a rubber suit.
I think that is what he means anyways lol

Yup yup. Overall I think the statue looks great.

The comic cover does look very very similar to this though. Just like the scorpion alien.

We all know this is their "Jungle Hunter" They found a loophole to make one in the scale they wanted and they ran with it. Good for them, but it's 100% our old jungle hunting friend with a few addons (spear etc)

This thing is going to be amazing. I ordered the regular edition as I will just display it with the bio mask on. I’m realizing that it’s not going to be easy to keep this thing clean and free of dust. Has anyone come up with a display option for this? This is going to command some serious real estate, and the cases I’m seeing around don’t accommodate something 28+ inches tall.

Seriously though, if you don't use glass cases then the best option is to not have dust to start with.
Because of my extreme allergies I have no draperies-just shutters, hardwood floors, no rugs, leather furniture and whole house HEPA filtration. I dust about every 6 months and even then it's not even noticeable dust.
But depending on where you live (like the desert) you may not be able to escape dust.

That too. If this comes out the way we hope, it will become a centerpiece.

I figured carpet flooring would be better than hardwood, as it catches dust.
