He'll probably end up being about 20 inches tall to the top of his helmet, and about 21 inches to the helmet's wing tips.

Sorry to ask a second time, but I'm really curious to know if my eyes are as good as I think: Is that a JB Cap on the upper left corner of the back of the Cap bobble-head box?

JB .. there's not really any one particular reference art, because of the size, it's going to be a pretty simple (though we're shooting for iconic) museum pose with folded wings.  So I sent Keith a bunch of different reference pictures from various "eras", and it's really going to end up being an amalgamation of everything ... but it will lean towards the classic.

I did want a very specific body type though, so I sent him over a dozen classic pictures of Bob Paris.  I wanted built, but not roid rage built.
