I think with this sculpt that the problem is the opposite. I think if the chest would have been slimmed down the sculpt would feel more in portion with the rest of the figure.

I'm interested if you guys might agree and here's a link to a full body pic I took of mine...

With that said...I still think the figure is really nice and the torso does not bother me in hand.

Have a lot of companies started doing three-headed sculpts? I can't think of any. With all the two-headed ones coming out I've wondered when someone would up the ante and throw a extra head on the thing.

I like most of the two-headed figures coming out but would prefer to see some figures that stood on more than two legs(Always thought the Maza would have looked good if it was tripedal).

Splurrt will help you out with this pretty soon. :)

As far as the 2 heads go- This SHBxWombat body style doesn't bother me near as much as the new Mishka monkey with long-ass titties.

that marmit? two head (gold) with the clubs totally look like they pinched in the waist of a marmit Sanda Gagantua figure, same scales and texture and such.

...JUST checked yr pic. Still think it looks too slim round the waist of the ole 2-head. So much so that my brain went straight to:

Remember: Say no to monsters in corsets! The monster form is beautiful untouched, in all sizes; and should not br distorted to conform to modern 'standards' of feminine beauty!!

(seriously though, yr right, it could have been made better by slimming the chest to match the waist, or bulking the waist, to match the chest. All just my subjective stoner aesthetic view though.)

Those Gargantua sculpts are my favorite Sanda and Gaira! Any comparison is a compliment in my mind and I definitely saw the similarity. I was actually planning a shot with all three together.
