Hey Alterton, do you think any chance of a large scale dropship?

Actually, you are being rude and disrespectful. It's one thing to offer a critique, but referring to someone's work as horrible or garbage is out of line.

If you don't like a pose or character design that's fine, we all have differing opinions, but post your comments with respect or don't post at all.

toty, I believe a dropship has been planned, dont know size
Sanhaim, company picked the pose, licensor approved it. Not much to say there.
And carty, ok kid, I am sorry but you are gonna have to wait for another company to do what you are expecting.
Thanks Nidgit.

Decent price for the size, but the pose kills it for me. Did Michael Myers ever pose like that? Also, the spattered blood base is very cheap and tacky looking. Completely ruins the peice for me.

As a Michael Myers nut, never thought I'd give an easy pass to a 1/4 scale Myers.

I think when he was coming through the closet to get Laurie in part 1 he held the knife that way. I definetly feel your pain on this one.

This piece is weak IMO. The pose, the base. Just don't like it.

I think this is a piece which would have benefited from having cloth, the boiler suit just doesn't work as a fully sculpted piece imo.

Also with such a simple characters i think more of a diorama base would have worked better.

Shame as i would love a decent 1/4 Myers.

I don't hate the pose and I'm pretty sure Michael did that a few times throughout the various movies. But for $350 I really need more than that little section of floor or whatever as a base. Especially since, as has been mentioned, Michael's look is so simple: just a mask and coveralls. He really would have benefited from a cloth outfit; as it stands now there isn't much difference at all between him and one of those 18" statues from Mezco or Neca. I do think the sculptor did a nice job making the mask look neutral and yet also menacing: so many Myers sculpts never pull it off and we end up getting truly goofy looking "expressions" on the masks, especially combined with wild hair.

If they added a real diorama type base I might have pulled the trigger. $350 is too much for something so basic.
