 Ron English "grin" I saw this figure on vinylpulse. I like alot of Ron English work. I think this is a great figure. I know how some of you feel about western vinyl. I think this looks good. How do you guys feel about it?

Re: Ron English "grin" Not sure I'd buy it (well, I'm pretty certain I'm not), but it is well-executed.

Re: Ron English "grin" Definitely not my style, but the sculpt is pretty amazing - much closer to his artwork than the last couple of toys.

Re: Ron English "grin" i like it but my only complaint is that Charlie Brown never really smiled. Might have been good to have his mouth as a squiggly line instead of a smile.

Re: Ron English "grin" the skull nostrils position in relation to the nose seems little strange.

Re: Ron English "grin" Yeah the nostrils dont really match. I think it is his best figure yet. just my opinion. I really like his paintings and his bilboards are awesome.

Re: Ron English "grin" I think its cool. I really like Charlie Brown and have been wanting to add something Charlie-ish to my collection. I was thinking of something vintage, but this will work too.

There was an artist who drew what the skeletons of certain cartoon characters would look like.

Re: Ron English "grin" LamourSupreme wrote: i like it but my only complaint is that Charlie Brown never really smiled. I love this line not only because it's so funny...but also because it's as true an observation on CB as you can get... that image of Charlie Brown smiling must have been some kind of promo shit Schultz drew for something they were trying to sell, because CB's whole deal has nothing to do with smiling at all...
