    Scott Ian and The Dude

    From More from Bif Bang Pow - Laser Mego

    I got another box from Entertainment Earth, full of 8" Bif Bang Pow goodness!

    First is Scott Ian of Anthrax:







    He has great details such as his beard and the tattoos on his legs. The guitar fit nicely and is a perfect scale.

    Next up is the Dude from The Big Lebowski:







    He comes with a rug that really ties the figure together.







    I like this figure more than I thought I would. He is very photogenic, and just a joy to pose. The rug is a great addition.

      Those are awesome! I will definitely be getting those soon. I always like to kind of wait a bit and get the reviews first before I jump in and pull the trigger. Thanks for the great pictures!

        I like the sculpt on The Dude, but I think the head is too big. And I love the outfit and that he comes with the rug!

        Also doesn't look like Scott Ian has any eyewhites, which detracts from the otherwise great sculpt.

        Definitely getting these two, though.

          He does have eyewhites. It was just my lousy photography skills.

          Here is another picture to show his eyes better.

            The likenesses are good but I can think of about 10,000 other mego's that would sell better than these guys. I'd leave these guys on the shelf next to Bat-Boy.

              I give them credit for each coming with an accessory.

                That's a really nice guitar.

                I just re-watched Lebowski. What a great movie. I'll have to get a Dude now. I liked the figure a lot when I saw it at SDCC. Maybe the head is a touch big, but it works.

                And hey! Who else was in Lebowski? Why, none other than Lost's Jacob--Mark Pellegrino!

                  I guess that's a reasonable enough thing to say, but it makes me think you should change Supporting EMCE Toys 100%!! to 85% or something.

                    Fair enough Scott....but supporting them 100% doesn't mean I like 100% of what they do. While I'm thrilled to see all these mego's hitting shelves I've been disapointed by some of the licenses they've put their effort into. That said, I do support them 100% and hope Anthrax (or whoever the heck he is) sells like hotcakes!

                        BBP got the licenses - we supplied the means of production.

                        If somebody came to me with the Spawn license and wanted to
                        make a mego of Spawn, I would be glad to help bring it to life.

                              the Dude looks cool. he should be set on someones coffee table or something... LOL
                              I thought Scott Ian was an odd choice for an action figure, although I guess it is very Megoesque, since they did all sorts of celebrity dolls. Is he an action figure geek like us or something?
