I'm surprised nobody has said anything about these guys.
I just stumble across it on Roto, but I think he's pretty cool.

I haven't been this impressed in a while and have been waiting for this toy to release. The character kind of gives me a Hobbit or Lord of the Rings vibe for some reason, but I love it. |

I like ryniaks work and this is pretty cool but from the front it looks like he is wearing a shirt? and why does it have cuffs, seems a bit out of place to me... |

I really liked it till I noticed the cuffs/shirt/beard? the beard is really bothering me. |

The cuffs on his arms and legs are lame as well as the cutoff tshirt and little hat. I like the colors though. |

It is not a cutoff shirt and hat, check out the side and back pictures in the other thread for more details. The cuffs, however, are there, but they don't bother me. I'm liking this guy a lot. |

With it being rotocast vinyl out of china clear is kind of out of the realm of possibility isn't it? |

Thanks for the comments guys. We're having fun with this project. Yes, he's kinda got cuffs, though I prefer to think of them as armor. I LOL'ed at the shirt/vest/hat comment. I hadn't really seen it before. Not sure I see the hat at all even now, but it's funny. Clear vinyl is not in the plan right now....as mentioned, we're rotocasting these in China (but painting them here) so a good clear is not gonna happen anytime soon. |

I'm actually really, really impressed by this. I dig the 'beard' (I have a massive one -- Zombeard holds a special spot in my heart), don't see the 'hat', I can kind of see the 'shirt' but like Kirby said, it appears to me more like a chest plate. I haven't bought any Western vinyl in years, but I could see a couple of these guys in my collection. Congrats to everyone involved on a cool toy. |

I live on a lake and could totally see this little guy dragging himself up onto shore to catch some rays... maybe munch down on some minnows and tadpoles while wrestling a snapping turtle or something. hah'...!!! those silly cuffs could be his armor to protect himself from all the baby gators and sandhill cranes that wanna eat him up...

I don't think it has a beard; I think it's a throat-sac, like some amphibians have. |
