            Very exciting to see the pictures in my mailbox, today! Body looks great! With the new design the body will be able to get more muscular body parts as needed, right? I'm pretty sure that was one of the target goals (more muscular torso?) in the Kickstarter and even if it didn't reach that goal (if I remember right?), we could see them in the near future (hopefully!!). I am anxious to see what the clear bodies will look like!

                That statement nails it for me. Great work guys!

                  I hope its just an unflattering picture of a bad pose. The anatomy seems unnatural. There's no shoulder (deltoid) and that makes it seem like the arms are connecting to the torso too low. Also, the space between the legs at the crotch area is really wide. I'm guessing that was done to accomodate the bandless articulation. I don't remember seeing those things on the kickstarter prototype picture.

                    Mike, Thanks for the honesty bro... I echo some of that, and rest assured we will be making sure it's ready for prime time. The Prototype we showed on the KS, was a physical working prototype, so there is no reason this figure shouldn't look exactly like it... We'll have it in hand come next week.

                      I'm starting to get excited about this! There are all sorts of possibilities in this!

                      And I hope that the 1:6 figure becomes a reality as well! THAT will be the big hitter!

                          The issues some people are seeing are the result of poor photography, not poor design. We've seen additional images of the body since I posted the first one and these issues aren't there. Thursday I'll have a sample in hand and will post better pictures.

                                Workable. Very workable. I like it!

                                Now if only I could get a hold of a good likeness for Paul McGann's 8th Doctor, I could get to work on that custom.
