    I think he should have blood stains all over. That would be really cool.

              I don't know the series, but when I first read the title I thought it was about Lonnie's Superman :D

                  Again, no idea who that is, but that body is great custom fodder

                  Do you ever have anything positive to say? Whine, whine, whine is all you ever seem to do. Try and be a little more positive and supportive, will ya?

                    Spoke with BBP today, Brock is still being worked on so don't expect this to be the final figure. Although, I do like where it's going.

                      The Venture Brothers don't interest me, so I won't be purchasing them.
                      Some of you ARE interested in the Venture Brothers, and plan on purchasing them.So; out of respect to you, I WILL NOT be bad-mouthing the line by saying things about the head sculpts, colors, or the way their clothes fit.In fact, I won't be making negative comments of any kind, because I truly want you to enjoy these figures.
                      How's that for a novel approach?

                        Since a lot of y'all are expressing bewilderment over this property and Brock Sampson in particular, I thought I'd post a few things that cast some light on the nature of the Venture Brothers. It's basically a delightfully grown-up satire of Johnny Quest gone horribly, horribly wrong. Brock is Race Bannon turned up to eleven. Witness:



                        And from the 10 page Venture Brothers primer at about.com:



                        Part Cherokee, part Swedish, and 100-percent redblooded American, Brock is a hulking, brooding man of few words and profound mystery. A downscale James Bond officially employed by an unknown branch of our government’s secret service, Brock was assigned to protect the Venture family a decade ago – and then promptly forgotten about. He barely tolerates the uptight and neurotic Dr. Venture, but the job gives Brock the opportunity to travel to exotic locations, meet interesting people and sleep with them – or kill them. He reacts to every threat with swift, silent, excessive brutality – striking first and usually not even bothering with questions later. He is a man of action – a jack-of-all-trades whose duties at the Venture compound extend beyond mere protection to include piloting the X-1 supersonic jet plane, repairing H.E.L.P.eR. and being all but a surrogate father to the Venture brothers. Or at least a big brother. A very big brother.

                          I've heard a few people call these sculpts "bad" and I don't agree. These sculpts seem to be based on the more early, season 1 designs and I think that is throwing some people off. Because those not the designs they are most recently familiar with. For Brock, I think his wide jaw would look better is there was a large neck and shoulder area below it, but that is the limitation of the buck body.
