Yeah, cool sculpt, a little Gamera-ish, but what's it looking at? Or is it for Mutant Evil to yell "OPEN CHOP" and go for the neck?

poor design choice to not have the figure engage the viewer...ruins the whole thing in my opinion.

I was thinking the same thing. Perfect for lower-than-eye-level shelves. I love it and hope to see some production runs soon.

I actually really like this figure.
Love that chest piece and the spikes going down the arms.

i think it rules hard! i'm also partial to the original rxh body so that helps.
the head sculpt and chest armor just look so bad ass, love it!~

Good point. Think about the Skull Pirate/Captain. Always looking down, it sucks for eye level viewing (to me) so I always have them displayed a bit higher up.

I thought figures like this were just one-offs...?

Not digging this one at all.

It's so odd that I find it compelling... love the chest armor better than the Akro armor.

What is not to love? So much character! Plus, if that upturned head seems awkward at first, think about all the vintage dino-like kaiju that have their head in that pose, roaring at the heavens. It reminds me of that, among other things. I love this colorway too, even if it's just a one-off.

I love this figure and how the eyes are off on the side. It's quite different from the RxH norm but the common body brings it all together quite well for me.

I kinda like it. Wish the head could swivel up and down somehow. That would have been a elegant solution. Not really crazy about the paint. Good point about it looking good on a lower shelf.

I totally dig it!

Considering what little we can see, I like this at least as well as anything else since Jinja - this armor is great. But I've seen it only in pics from roughly this angle - anyone got (or know the location of) a pic of it from above, so we could get a better look at the face?

If memory serves, this is a one off creation, a custom. I think datadub has more details, but I wouldn't count on seeing this figure anytime soon.

Reminds me a little of this guy...
