The pathetic thing about that Galactus is that it's the SAME ONE from Marvel Legends series 9 that came out years ago... and they changed the head just to make it different!

The proportions look different between the two figures.

Huh. I just went and looked at an old ML Galactus and quite a bit is different on this one. The wrists, the chest emblem, the belt area, the shape of the skirt. The basic figure itself is the same - you can tell for instance that the arms, legs, torso, etc are all just repainted, but a lot of the deco work has been altered. The wrists being different and the head being bigger would explain the difference in proportions, I think. The legs look identical, just repainted, and the torso is the same other than the different belt and emblem shapes.

Hmm I think I have the ML Prof X that came with the head but not the rest of the body, should be an easy swap.

Kinda makes me want to post something equally crappy and tell everyone "I like it!", just for old time's sake.

Why does Galactus have on racoon-face makeup?

Not a fan of the armored look for Sandman, but that's still a really cool looking statue!
