    Got my set today. Indeed Big Foot is an 11 out of 10. Steve is the bummer. Doesn't look anything like Lee Majors... I feel disappointed because Oscar Goldman and Fembot prototypes look very promising in pictures and that will leave us with a line of great figures without the main star and hero. If only they could re-release Steve with another head sculpt...

      I like the Steve Austin figure fairly well, my Bigfoot is shagging and I am a little put off by the arms and long hands. A very creative way to make him taller with the long hands and foot extensions, just a little weird when the figure is articulated. With that said, great job! More, more, more ...

        Wow...I'm surprised the Mods let you say this. If I make any criticisms of BBP head sculpts(likeness's or scale)my post is immediately removed. I guess it's just me they don't like.

          Sorry I didn't get to this sooner, I was busy picking-up Jason Lenzi's dry cleaning. I personally don't delete criticisms as long as they aren't rude or completely overboard in some way.

                I find it somewhat ironic that you accuse me rudeness, but your reply to me is dripping with sarcasm. Two are quite similar don't you think? Maybe I was being sarcastic and not rude?

                But back to my alleged rude post. What did I say that others haven't? I simply replied honestly to Brown Bear's post..."why does NECA and not BBP get to make Marvel cloth costume figures". I said because of poor likeness's(Lee Majors)and over sized heads(BSG Star Buk & Apollo). Many others have made the same statement with out reprisal...but I think your reaction to me is based on the fact that I used the "dreaded" smirking Icon at the end? Correct me if I'm wrong?

                  As someone's work whom you've maligned, I will say you could stand to buy some tact.

                  If your precious gem got deleted it may have been an accident or a glitch but you chose not to explore that with us privately before you accused us in public. Steve's reply was hardly hurtful and he made no accusation in it.

                    It was not a "precious gem"...and you're right, it didn't occur to me it might have been a glitch, my bad. If I had thought of it might have PMed you but it's too late now. As for my lack of tack...never been my strong suit. But I reiterate...others have said the same thing with out reprisal.

                      And so have you, forgive me but i see no lack of your opinion on this matter on multiple threads. Very aware of your position.

                        Bat, for someone who spends as much energy and time putting other people and their work down, perhaps this is a constructive hint that if you don't enjoy the negative attention when your the topic of conversation, perhaps you should dial down your seeming enjoyment of bashing others. Liking or not liking something is an opinion everyone freely expresses here. What get's you noticed is you pile on at every turn. And no matter how many times it's constructively pointed out that makers of these products frequent these boards, you insist on rubbing their face in the mud on your displeasure. WE GET IT. You don't like the line. Good for you. Now quit trying to humiliate these folks who risk more than their opinion to make this product. They happen to be human beings with feelings just like you.

                          There's a few others that certainly should take notice and take this advice as well.
