Man, I'm just not seeing these heads as oversized. The hair makes 'em look kinda big, but they seem in proportion to me.

Starbuck looks to me like Brian/Palitoy with a `70's 'do.

Okay, I was planning on just getting a Cylon but have to get Lucifer. NICE!!
Apollo seems to generally be the closest to scale. The BSG guys look a little better from this angle too...Originally Posted by Iron Mego
Hey - If you don't see it, keep that magic feeling =)

Looking for Tong body style LHT/Australian release Ninjas of any color, and here's :::My Expansive Wants List::: WARNING: I am medical malady boy, and have recently proven to be chronic iffy-to-negligible-trader-response-guy. Like After School Special worthy. This is my self-imposed Scarlet Letter.
The good doctors' heads seem a little large. But some old dudes have big heads! The others looks good to me. They've got big '70s hair that's for sure. Thanks for the comparison, btw. It would seem odd that these would be large. The Twilight Zone heads are pretty perfect if not on the small side a little.

Right?
I have a Kanamit which I've dyed to match a Ponch body color (Rit Tan by the way... I haven't added red in yet to see if I can flesh-tone the B&Ws though, maybe I'll do that next. B&W has kept me from picking up other TZ figs, it'd be nice if I could work a solution to fixing them) - anyway the face seems especially small (for mego) on that one. It's actually not far off from a realistic scale for the body, so then Cap/Spidey vintage heads are enlarged by about 8-10% over realistic, and several of the remegos seem another 8-10% larger on top of that. Like good Dr Wells there - I was actually surprised by that one. I have a few friends at SDCC right now and was planning on having one picked up but I told them to ixnay the Wells figure when I saw final pics. There seems to be a surprising amount of scale variation happening, and I wonder if it's all coming from the same or from different factories. Maybe it's a QC thing? It would appear to be a sculpt issue from the way the Wells heads turned out (by forehead to neck ratio) but I certainly don't know the process.

There was the podcast with the sculptor of the Universal Monster figures and he did say there can be quite a variation between factories. And I think he also mentioned that there wasn't as much shrinkage as there used to be.

I'm confused. The SDCC photos have a note saying prototypes and that the heads will be smaller, but in the pics they also show packaged figures. Comments?
