You know what? I can already tell that I don't like you. And I'm probably not gonna like you no matter how many pull-ups or push-ups you do. All right, anybody who wants to pick on anybody in class, aim for him, 'cause I'm not watchin'. -Kenny Powers
Okay, I see, it's in progress. I think you are definitely on the right track. I love the Zica Buck Rogers (and am getting him in the mail soon), but from everything I've seen so far, even though he does look like Gil Gerard, the face is a bit narrow.

A BIT narrow??!! I was about to ask if the image was squished somehow. Is that what they all look like, with elongated heads like that?
The sculpts did seem kinda long in the prototype stage, but it seems even more elongated in vinyl. I like Alfred Paredes work (I know he didn't do the Buck sculpt) so I take it the vinyl must have warped from the original quite a bit.
Yes, the production heads did have issues with being elongated. I noticed this early on in the prototype stage but the factory was never able to completely correct the problem. Here's a picture of the 1/6 scale prototype heads which shows what the correct shape should be.
I think Hawk would have an extremely elongated face, because it's already started out as narrow anyway, if this issue is not fixed. Not that it looks bad now, but add a little warp and it will noticeable.
Sorry, not to hijack or anything, but is there any chance to have this issue corrected by the time Hawk, etc come out if even just for their release?

The Hawk head actually looks pretty good. The figure that's been shown in the promo pics is basically the production version with the exception of some changes that have been made to the clothing.
