      I think people may be losing the translation because of the lighter flesh tone on the face, rather than the darker brown face paint you see him wearing in the show. But the head sculpt is spot on. That and his pupils are also white in the show. The prototype has them black. So that gives him a more humanistic look. I'm not worried. It's a prototype and the paint could change. If it doesn't, it's a very simple fix. Overall I am very impressed. They got the sculpt and outfit right. Look at those episodes. It's really all there. Great work BBP!

        The sculpt is ok, I think painting it differently would make it great.

            I think it looks awesome as is. Was really only planning on getting Austin, but after seeing this I'll be getting Bigfoot as well.

              That's a pretty nice sculpt! I had to look up the character from the show, I am really only familiar with him as he looked in the Kenner doll.

              I never picked up a TWZ Gremlin, how poseable was that figure, given the furry suit? Will this have the mobility to be a fun action figure?

              I also wonder if the EMCE Hulk body would be a better choice, if possible?

                I was expecting more of a shrunk down version of the Kenner one. More muscular and less heavy looking. Like on the new hulk style body. Nice head sculpt though.
                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...

                  It's a good Bigfoot and I'll definitely get these.

                  But this one I'll get a second of for my Harry Potter customs. I'm thinking Hagrid.

                    Any way to tell what his feet look like? Are they new sculpted feet or foot-shoes like the cowardly lion has?

                      Very neat !!!

                      Glad to see this sculpt resemble Andre the Giant ... compared to the orginal Kenner sculpt which resembled Ted Cassidy

                        Looks like grizzle Addams, still really cool though. What I really like is that Willy Lomis in tha back ground!

                          I really like this. Just the fact we are getting Mego-scale SMDM figs is awesome. This figure would always be the hardest to pull off, and I think this proto is great. I agree that putting this on the Hulk body would probably be a better choice, but as-is this is a winner in my eyes.
                          I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                          If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                            The paint betrays it a little.
