Valid point about the contemplative attitude of the piece, now that you mention it! kind of like Horror and film collectibles answer to Rodin's "the Thinker". Makes you wonder what he was thinking about at the time the photo refernce was taken. Good point!

Agreed. It's a classic in its current form. If Pierce was added, it may look too much like a rehash of the kit.

Not specifically this piece, but there was a 1/6 two-figure kit from several years ago produced by Janus company, by artist Thomas Kuntz.

Just wondering if you are still planning on the newsletter, Mike ? Hope so. It sounded like a great idea. Hope all is well. - Tom

I cannot believe I missed this. Phenomenal work, Mike.
It's hard to believe that's not Boris sat there.
