Who is Mota Hata

He's sculpted the Movie Thing which is a very good sculpt. Who is he?

I don't know much about him, but I do know that he sculpted a Thing model kit for Horizon back in the early 90's":

Moto Hata has been around for a while, mostly in the special effects ind. for movies. But he had sculpted a number of pieces for Horizon Models like the Thing Phil showed, and the Hulk, and the Terminator kits. Great artist!

What do you think of his Movie Thing. I'm very tempted.

Well, I think the sculpt is a beauty. I'm not too sure about the new design of the movie version of the Thing myself....but the sculpt looks really well done. I just hope the movie is good!!!!!

Its such a good likeness to the movie one thats what i like about it. Not the fact that the Movie look isn't that great but the sculpt is excellent.
