Kaiyodo's Revoltech Line of action figures has now added more Pixar characters with both Wall-E http://www.hlj.com/product/kyd00011 And Nemo (with mini-Dory) http://www.hlj.com/product/kyd00010 Hopefully, they've learned their lesson from the "Creepy Woody Face" experience... I'm wondering if they're going to be doing THE INCREDIBLES, because I could do with a Syndrome action figure, or the robot.

I thought of the Mego too, so I wouldn't be to quick to dismiss those thoughts.
The face looks great, spooky really, but the costume just comes across as not going with that face. Seems off somehow, like it's straying from statue to action figure and back. Like it can't decide what it wants to be.
If you like it, great, but I find it a bit off.

Okay, found a good deal on a Bowen Superman statue, so I bought it. Again, I like to say this forum is turning into a really, really bad influence.

Don't really have a preference or opinion about how Angel "should" look, but this statue makes him look like a bad, mo-fo!

Spider-man looks good but Thor looks like your average guy in a Thor costume.

Kaiyodo's Sci-Fi Revoltech line has added another vehicle to it's action figure stable: The classic version of the Gohten-go, AKA "Atragon", undersea warship. [HLJ Link] (Seriously resisting to quote a former governor of Alaska here) I've already got the superb Aoshima die-cast version of this ship, but this one would be the right size for my workstation cubicle...
