8 inch SMDM Steve Austin Head sculpt Prototype

[The Bat]

After seeing the final figure...I'm now totally convinced it looks nothing like Lee Majors. Just look at the picture on the Card art behind him...there's your comparison. This one's an easy pass for me.

That is exactly what I thought when I wrote my reply.

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.

Must be a LOT different than what's pictured at EE. Cause that is nothing I see as Lee Majors.

I'm not going to continue but I've held the damn thing right up to kenner steve austin and it's a great likeness of the guy.

Continue with your bashing.

I'm going to trust your opinion on this, as you're the only one here who's seen it in person.

[thunderbolt]

OK, even with my glasses on I'm just not seeing it. Hope you are right.

I get it Joe.

At least reserve final judgement until SDCC, when photos will be available. The side profile is great.
The sculptor is an ace for likeness and bbp brought him in because of it. It looks like him, trust me or don't, its not that vital to me that you like this. I've just seen it up close and really liked what I saw.

As long as I have enough time to cancel my preorder after seeing the SDCC pics. The pic of the original sculpt is impressive and hoped it would translate to the finishe product well. This along with the Monsters are my two lines I would collect after the demise of new Trek classic figures.

[palitoy]

I think there is at least two weeks to decide.

[GlobalObserver]

I really loved the unpainted prototype sculpt, but this looks nothing like Lee Majors. I'll reserve final judgement until better pictures surface during SDCC. I've already pre-ordered three of the red suit/Bigfoot and three of the Khakis. I really want this line to succeed.

Does anyone know if Bigfoot was given bigger feet, or will they actually be tiny little 8" size Mego feet? Bigfoot is called Bigfoot for a reason.

There is an awful lot of bitter in here.

I'm holding out hope until after we see pictures from SDCC.

It always disappoints me how quickly people turn on anyone trying to do something like this.

[powersthatbe]

looks alright to me,true i miss the raised eyebrow of Lee,looking forward to seeing the final production piece

[The Bat]

I'm a little confused on this point...is voicing your opinion considered "bashing"?

[thunderbolt]

Guess so, Dane. This was the Mego-esque figure I was wanting the most and it really doesn't look good compared to the prototype sculpt pics.

[jeffbearco]

Never forget that there are living, breathing, feeling human beings who have invested a lot of time and money into bringing these figures to market. And there is a very fine line between constructive criticism and bashing.

For myself, I am very curious to see what they have done.
