I saw Christian Slater in the first picture. It doesn't help that he's a little cross-eyed. My gripe is: Why call this a DARKNESS cop figure with obvious reference to the movie and not have a head resembling the actor who played that role?alex teohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10434098393320787285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-6192649128852223482011-03-20T19:46:48.252+08:002011-03-20T19:46:48.252+08:00I think the sculptor deliberately tried not to get...I think the sculptor deliberately tried not to get the head to look like Gibson. I mean, a sculptor who can do that level of fine detail would surely be able to get some modicum of resemblance in there if the intent was to actually recreate the actor's features. You can't really see the likeness in there... to be honest, it looks more like David Arquette than Mel Gibson.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-85173965710706522592011-03-19T23:13:33.406+08:002011-03-19T23:13:33.406+08:00The accessories and suit don't look bad.

It's amazing that Wild Works spent so much for the licensing, but paid so little for a decent sculptor. Blitzway's soon-coming Scarface release shows that you can rival titans like Ashley Wood's ThreeA and Hot Toys. FoxBox also looks quite promising in the future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-26960201690113072372011-03-19T14:00:57.791+08:002011-03-19T14:00:57.791+08:00Maybe wild Works didn't have the license to pr...Maybe wild Works didn't have the license to produce a likeness of Mel Gibson just like Hot Toys before with their terminator/predator line.
