The ratio of prototype to production version is about 6% - but some
factories can handle the math once they are comfortable with the
format.

The factory that made our Star Trek and Apes was able to take
a vintage head and give me back a new rotocast head at the same
size. Unfortunately, when we made Chekov, the signals got mixed
and he came out a little smaller than intended. Even so, he sold out
in a short time.

To make up for this, James Brady made Pike's head too big, but
the new factory assumed the prototype was 100% and sent the
production head out at the same size. I didn't see the test shots
in time to correct it, so Pike can out big headed.

He still sold out quickly.

As long as everything is straight for the Marky Mark Planet of the Apes figure.

Scott and Brian that was a great interview! I look forward to the next episode.
