Don't know about you guys but so far my main complain is with the female
faces. I didn't buy one female character yet because I'm not convinced at all
with the likeness.
Also, I mostly own bad guys. They are much more colorful and fun.

I think, and this discussion has been already.. discussed, that Creel can decide whether he will absorb the properties of the chain and/or ball or not. I think this rule applies because the chain is under the same spell as Crusher himself. Also, I think this is how ita has been depicted in the stories.

Pascal, I think at least Sue and Jean are almost exactly what I would hope they would look like.

I might agree for Sue but I can barely recognize Jean (except for the
costume of course).
Anyway, I'm just disappointed Eaglemoss can't capture enough likeness for
my own taste.

Nice! Not a huge fan of the character, but I'll definitely pick that one up!

Tell me about it! I've decided it's best not to add up the cost of the collection as it's money already spent. Doing that has allowed me to keep my head on my shoulders!

So, there's a poll over on the figurine forum about what size to make size-changing characters, either as regulars or the normal Special size (think Colossus). What do you guys think? I'm in the distinct minority that they should be Megas (Galactus), since Giant-Man/Goliath/Atlas/Bill Foster get to be pretty darn big, and the Mega classification would keep them better in scale with the rest of the collection.
Doing a Goliath where he's only a head taller than the rest of the figures makes no sense to me.
I also brought up Sasquatch being Mega size (and have done a few times) since, at 10 feet tall, being a normal special doesn't do him any justice either, but I'm in the very very small minority there as well.

That's a tough one. I wouldn't want Giant-Man to be a sculpt as tall as Galactus or the Sentinel, but I would want him to be taller than the normal sized characters. I think a head or two taller than, say, the Cap figurine would be a good size. He'd look taller than everyone around him and yet not as tall as Galactus, the Watcher, or even a Sentinel.
I know scale isn't strictly adhered to with Eaglemoss, but I do wish certain characters were reissued to approximate their sizes relative to the other figurines. Dr. Strange always looks way off compared to the three other Defenders I have him posed with.

Doctor Strange is so damn heavier as well!
I'm all for bigger figurines for the size changers but I can understand why people wouldn't want them as bit as say Galactus or The Watcher. I try to forget the scale issues especially when one can think of a 'reason' why they wouldn't be that big.
