well one of the best designed villains ever, he was pretty inept whiny and cowardly much like cobra commander Mumm-Ra was one of the few 80's bad guys that wasn't a whiny ----- most of the time, even if he did fail just as often

Between you and spazzy, if I was a statue maker...decision making on what style to go with would be all screwed up...

I say this in jest. Opinions are so varied. Its a wonder Jerry decides on just what style to go with.

Interesting news to start my day this morning. Not sure if I'll like it enough to buy a 1:1 from PCS yet though.

Bust looks super detailed and very cool.

This must have been what Jerry was referring to when he said he'd be doing the toon style and a realistic style.

Mike Tyson sounded funny too, doesn't change that in his day he was one of the baddest dudes on the planet.

I believe Jerry decided to go realistic on the 1:1 busts because life-like realism lends itself better to 1:1 scale compared to 1:4 scale.

Not sure if I'm going to dabble into this line. I'm going to wait for the mixed media cartoon version.

The concept art is more to my liking. The way his head is tilted down gives it a better feel IMO. The final seems lifeless.
