I believe the grin is a nod to fink.shit, the original fight figure. We've already had that discussion though ... there are a lot of tributes and nods in this figure.
It wouldn't surprise me at all if we see more "half and half" RxH colorways, although I may be wrong as Shinto is already a half-and-half figure, even when unpainted.

I thought I saw a pic a little while ago with a completely black Shint with all black eyes - I liked the eariness of the figure....was that just a one off and this one is built of that one?

No, no ... these things don't get released in big numbers. Naysayers, keep saying nay!

This new Shinto reminds me of Two-Face.
Even more so with that grin.
Here's an appropriate picture:

I think its the cat eye for me. Any figure with that eye has my attention every time. At first I just though that the black side was a heavy shadow. So very cool !

I think a really cool companion piece to this one would be a black Shinto with the reverse side painted in metallic red and gold.
