I think there's a whole series of these being put out by MINDstyle, and this must be Secret Base's design for it. Any thoughts? I'm not totally sure if I dig it.

Looks lame. Like Toy Story x Ron English.

Edit: Ha, I just saw the top of the photo where it says Toy Story.

i think it is cool, but wouldn't pay to much for something like that.
and would like to see other color choices (mostly b&w) than just using the standard colors that the regular character normally has.
probably would work best in a mini-size.

Just curious... what makes the Bounty Hunter one OK to you. In my mind, it's the least inspired of the four there... it doesn't take much to apply a logo on the largest flat surface. :?:

Maybe the SB will be a chase and actually have sculpted details. THeir sketch doesn't look like flat graphics on that platform.

Word. But that's BxH's schtick it seems.Pretty much everything they do is a variation on this theme. :twisted: I think its funny that Kozik gets shit for it and BxH gets applause... whatever...

I think the thing about the BxH logo is that it looks face like, with the mouth and B and H are in position to be eyes.
It's not just like a nike swoosh or something, so I think it works.

i like the all black, and the bxh logo sorta looks like a face on the fig.
and i still don't think i'd go for it, hence the "ok" instead of "awesome!!!!!!!!!!"

I think this illustrates perfectly the fuzzy line between stuff we endorse and stuff we abhor.

That seems to be the general consensus . . . far better hitting those $1000 NNN's and leave the cheap, mass-produced Chinese crap well alone! :wink:

I think these would look a lot better if they actually got the toy's proportions right. Here's a comparison shot, it's overall less round and the head is about 1/3 of the figures size, where on these it seems more like 1/2. Once it's designed and painted by someone else it even looks less like the original design. The Stitch design from mindstyle is much better, although still not great.
