Gotta go with Kozik on this one. It reminds me of an old lady with a bouffant harido....

Looks like perhaps Medicom weighed in a little bit heavier than SB on this collaboration...

I love medicom but they really need to bust out a new sculptor.
the 'Medicom Crouch' ruins another cool fig.

Yea, that sculpt sucks. How many times do they have to use that pose?

h8graphix can for sure be hard to look at. The crouch is not my issue, it is the hands. them same hands over and over.

Yeah the hamfists can go.
My big issue is with the facial sculpts - I see h8graphix face sculpts, I think "aggro frat boy" whether it's a mechanical clown/bee or an elephant or Danzig.

I think the lesson for today is that even SB can drop the ball.

Thats good - it makes them strive to produce good designs instead of the substandard stuff other companies keep putting out, that loads fo folk still buy. Hopefully SB will see this and produce something mindblowing

I disagree - I think it's a cool design.
Very Japanese new school.
It's hiarious.
I'm sure it's going to look kick-ass in real life. I can't wait to get it.
I want it to face-off with the new Balzac skeleto-bat.
Now I know there won't be insane competition to get it.
edit-
But the fig. really doesn't look too SB.
Maybe this is a signal that they are making a change.
What really kick and are very SB are the eyes and mandibles.
At least they are trying different shapes.
If you don't like this one, wait for the next.

That's dissapointment for you - like when you hear that Lucas gets off his ass to make more Star Wars movies and ends up making three straight piecs of crap. Or when any Alan Moore comic gets made into a movie. Or whenever Lou Reed puts out a new album.
Mostly I'm dissapointed because SB doesn't usually make much at all in a larger size, so these two Medicom collabs (I don't like the King Skull B either) seem like blown opportunities.
