    I really appreciate Tweeterhead's creative use of themed bases for their characters. They really have something cool started.

    sorry, but the Riddler statue sculpt could be molded and used for a "soft rubber doll" head. Just look at that new Riddler sculpt, doesn't even look like Gorshin and the eyes and mouth are crooked like he has Bell's Palsy or something.

    I dunno, I think this looks great from the front angle and off on the two side angles. FTC could use the same head sculpt and it could come out different once it's turned rotocast. Much different than working with something like polystone or polyresin.. And of course we're talking a $20 item versus a $200+ item.

    The level of detail is not where the difference lies.

    Trevor Grove is one of my heroes. He is an absolute master of portrait sculpting.

    Boy you ain't kidding. I may end up keeping CW and getting the rest after all. Hard to pass up art like this. I'm also on the fence regarding the Munsters.
