I wouldn’t. Frill or nothing for me.

Frill removable via a magnet.

I like that idea, except I think if it's no frill it should be closed mouth

I think if they do a dilo bust it should be frill-less. There’s something about it that is cute yet menacing without it. Just have the dilo head cocked a little bit like when Nedry is talking to it and it would be perfect.

This is hilarious. They could actually have a " frills" and " no frills" edition.

Haha. It would be a beautiful but deadly edition to Chronicle's JP line!

Seriously, I think it's a clever idea making a bust from the Dilo. Even if they don't have access to that moulds, sculpting it. Years ago a guy made a bust in fiberglass with all of the neck and it was very impressive/desirable:



Even being in fiberglass impressive. I've seen also other attemps on the Dilo and they were all interesting too. I hope people at Chronicle would consider it...

That looks cool. This is more ambitious, and I think more dynamic

A way to avoid it would be to include shoulders and arms, but i can’t see this not raising price alot.
Or just closed frill, but, where’s the fun in that?
I totally agree, the paint application would need to be spot on. They could use decals on the frill which would probably come out really well. They're using them on the Blue & Owen figure.
