Glad I'm not the only one. I'm getting rid of mines precisely for the reasons you stated. His level of understanding anatomy is better suited for action figure lines, like Marvel Legends. Held up to scrutiny, there's no way in hell I'd compare Sosa's Akuma to even the original, and highly stylized '07 PCS Akuma - much less the MM Ultimate. There's nothing like PCS Street Fighter. And sculptors like Cleary and Reilly can still carry the company without Jerry.
On HMO's females, I agree with the plastic surgery look. Every sculptor has their weakness. But this guy also sculpted X and Zero, and Morrigan is alright. On the Mai front, Kinetiquettes already won. It would be nice if HMO and the other companies making KOF move on to other characters already.
