        I like that original idea of putting Oscar with Rudy. That would make more sense given the briefcase is a over-sized replica of the Oscar suitcase from Kenner. I think I'll have to buy an extra Oscar Goldman just to complete that idea. Another good idea by the folks at BBP. I still think they should do an Oliver Spencer (Oscar Goldman inspired) figure for the series. The flip side to that is they could make a perfect Kolchak figure from the same production line. I think it would sell very well to collectors.

            hope its still getting tweaked. sleeves and pant legs too short and boy that paintjob really brings down a pretty good sculpt.

              I'm still having a tough time seeing Lee Majors when I look at him. Hope the pants hide his ankles. Looks like he may have a bionic arm under there too. Cool.

                Wow, Steve doesn't look so cool like I imagined.

                  I'm digging it. if you look carefully, his right arm and legs appear to be silver. That's pretty cool.

                  Besides, yes, it's the prototype, so when the head is reduced in production, I think it's going to look nice!

                    Who's the guy in the red jogging suit next to Bigfoot?

                    I was so looking forward to this. I'm sorry, but I'm not seeing Steve Austin in that head sculpt at all.

                      I didn't much care for the head sculpt the first time I saw it, but I was hopeful it would look better later on. This is not particularly comforting, though.

                        looks more like Henry Silva than Lee Majors.

                          The paint app looks nothing like Lee Majors. If this is the final product, I will not be spending my money on this.

                            Now more than ever I feel having his eyebrow slightly raised (not exagerated) would really have benifitted the sculpt. I will have to wait until I see actual production shots before making final decision.

                              I am confident this figure will turn out awesome, seen it up close and it's creepily good. Also glad they didn't do the eyebrow thing, it's kind of cartoony.

                                I agree. If anyone should have been set up for disappointment, it's me because I'm a big, big fan of the show. So I expect alot. But I like what I'm seeing. I think it's all there. I will be ordering more once they are out. Plus I'll be putting different outfits on him as originally intended anyway, so the red suit is a non-factor with me. He was seen in that outfit maybe three times in the entire series run and that was for mere minutes. I think BBP has made a really nice figure here. And the Rudy and Big Foot figures will compliment him perfectly. Great job guys!
