 Re: Pumpkin brain rip off?
I don't know if you can call it a rip off. A pumpkin head isn't really an original idea to begin with.

 Re: Pumpkin brain rip off?
Looks like a Q ee with a pumpkin for a head. No comparison.

NM, actually it's both!  I meant an actual pumpkin for a head. Didn't the thing in that movie look more like Alien? I don't remember it having a pumpkin head.

I simply meant the sculpt of this [expletive deleted] toy in comparison to the pumpkin brain. http://rotofugi.com/toyscart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=80&idproduct=281

I wouldn't say it's a rip off as much as a fucking pile of shit, insult to my goddamn eyes

For what it's worth, it's possible that the Q_e_e guy was "inspired" by the Skull Brain, especially given that his premier platform toy wasn't exactly original in the first place, but I don't really see a strong enough resemblance to call it a rip-off. It's not the kind of thing that would even be a blip on the radar of most Secret Base collectors. Just another platform.
