    Looks promising from what I can see so far. I was hoping for a classic Chaney version and this is it!

    Hoping for a mask accessory.

      Wow! I wonder if they already have the packaging designed....I'd love to supply some original artwork.

      I have just the thing ready to go...

        just an FYI, I just added the second photo. A third is here but something is going wrong with it, the figure is actually in colour though.

          I'll be honest: Had I seen this on the pegs as a 10-12-year-old, my head would have exploded. Curious about the flesh-tone.

          Always liked that art, D.

              The figure is hitting the U.S. in less than a month and a half, so it's probably already packaged and cased up. They usually make several of each character, so they could use your art in another wave. You really should talk to them.

                very cool. Mildly surprised, but very happy to see that it does not appear to be a rework of the DST portrait. I am hoping it comes with a mask for an accessory.

                  Very nice.

                  I’m hoping for the Michael Crawford version as well.

                      Looks really nice.
                      You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                          Really wondering how they are skirting the Universal license here. There's no arguing that's the 1925 version we've seen licensed from Universal many times, and it's an incredibly well done likeness, at that. Did Chaney utilize the make-up outside the film somewhere along the line?

                            How differant is this from the EMCE version?

                              It's actually a new head sculpt. The EMCE/DST one was done by Sean Sansom, this one is done by Andrew Covalt.
