I think the helmet IS the head
add:
If the helmet was clear and had a fade from top to bottom it would hide the inperfection but give a stellar effect and show part of the upper arms .
no blood splatter, please. I like the effect of a small drip or 2, but nothing crazy. evils look nice.

Hmm well I just took the one I had off the shelf and this guy seems pretty busy as it is to me with all the cracks, the cape and the mohawk. Seems to me he would almost look better 'clean'. Of all the RXH guys I see him washing his hands and making his bed in the morning...
Hope that make sense... Ill still get him either way.

Clear helmet sounds almost as good as a completely clear figure. Clear helmet on any color body except white? go for a competely different colorway!!
my 2 cents

There's a clear body with GID BBs.
That's the closest that I've seen to a glow body wiht a clear helmet.

Nothing really to see Frank. Just take any RxH fig and take the head off. Thats what it looks like under the bigaro head/hood. The bigaro head is like a sleeve that goes over the fighter body.

the photo has been on my desktop for ages.....yes yes!!!
painting the eye would go great...and it would distract from what some see as a design flaw..the exposed peg neck...which doesn't bother me,,,,atleast in this pic/version..

If you know the Bigaro, you know the sculpt.
You can see past the photo.

The glow pic looks great and all but when its not glowing you can see that nub neck and unless you got a spray coverage to cover that.... I don't think it will fly

I would like to see this same figure in daylight.
The photo almost looks doctored with the magenta on the chest.

I am probably wrong here but wasn't that one a really low number production wise a special gift or prize?
So it only seem right to reproduce it so more people can have it - right Lash & Toybot?

absolutely! So everyone can sign up to enjoy their own "homage"
If Mori doesn't like it, he doesn't have to sell the blanks to Kozik.
if anyone doesn't like it, don't buy it.

may I make a suggestion?
I think the top of the clear helmet should be painted somehow to hide the ugly hole on the place of the absent head
just m2c
I do like the whole set up - GID painted body + clear (painted?) helmet
