    Lost Wave 1: Updated Pictures

    BBP! has updated the photos of Ben Linus, John Locke and Hugo Reyes on the Entertainment Earth website with what appear to be factory-made heads that seem to have much improved quality from the Jacob/MIB set. Overall, I'm quite pleased with how these look. They seem to have tweaked Locke's face from the prototype. His neck seems a tad long, but otherwise I think it's a good likeness of the character, he has that kind of gee whiz look Locke got sometimes. I think Hurley's head looks better than the prototype did. The stuffed belly is a bit funky, but it's a fine solution to the problem. I think Ben looks good as well, I can't wait to put him in some civilian clothes and come up with some eyeglasses for him. I can't wait to see the updated Kate when they post it.

    This is a good sign that they are working to fix the problems they said they would fix and that samples is coming in from overseas. I know this line has a lot of critics, but I'm feeling much much better about it.

    They do look tweaked, dont they? That is a good sign. Although I have no desire to collect this line, I like what they are doing with it. I would not mind picking up Locke just for the clothes.

      They do look better...Nice to see BBP addressing the problems. Hopefully the rest of this line will continue to be tweaked.

        I wish I would've watched this show. I'd probably buy the figures. They look great.

          To me the bulging eyes, nose and ears of Ben Linus/Michael Emerson actor are still not as big and expressive as they are. But true is that his head has been improved, and I really appreciate that BBP has made this.
          Now, I will buy this figure for sure.

            This is one line I wont be buying, after a major disapointment how the show ended, just simply "lost" interest in them.

              Huge improvement for sure, I like the look on Locke's face, typical for him.
              Now they still have to fix Kate cause that looks nothing like her

                The necks are still longer than I would have liked, but these look much better. I really like these.

                  These look much better. I'm liking them a lot, but I don't think I can afford another line right now. Locke really captures the look of the character. Nicely done!

                    Locke looks better than that glow-in-the-dark version we saw earlier, but no where near as good as the prototype. Hurley's flowing hair not being fixed is disappointing.
