Years ago, Jacob Rahmier was able to show the potential in that Sideshow sculpt. Unsurprisingly, SS botched it once it reached production.

Yes. This was with it modified. I think they heated it up to make it less more narrow. And repainted by Jacob Rahmier.

That's the one. Pretty sure Jake fixed the SS head, then cast it as a one-off. The whole eye-insert plate really messed with the overall look of the final SS product. Again, this was years ago, and my memory's spotty.

If we ever get the Lim Drake, I’ll try to use the second sculpt to replace UC3 Sideshow.
I bought the 1:4 scale Drake statue by Sideshow and that head sculpt looks pretty good, or at least it came close to matching the prototype unlike the 1:6 figure.
Sideshow statues are usually OK (especially when they lean into comic based and not realistic) but their 1:6 figures are hit-and-miss - the new Beetlejuice final product looks bad so far. Their Clint Eastwood figure line is inconsistent - good & bad.

"Good & bad".......& The Ugly.
(I had to)The Eastwood stuff does look kind of all over the place. I only have The Dude from them & he's surprisingly decent, but I've been leery of pulling the trigger on The Crow or David from The Lost Boys as the production likenesses aren't usually on the same level.
The headsculpt on SSC's Drake is actually pretty okay, it was just given a horrid paint job. I remember a few folks here had theirs repainted and the results were stunning. You can check out the old posts here:

I think I've thought about that Nate sculpt at least twice a day (at minimum) since R_R_X showed those pictures.
I'm seriously so excited for this figure.

Considering this thread has real solid intel about everything but the box being done, I would imagine release is close to imminent.I hope I have this in time for next summer. Knowing this company though...I wish I was an optimistic person, but I'm not

Ha! That’s my photo. The separate eyes SSC used on their figures during that time ruined lots of sculpts.

Maybe this is me just trying to will it into existence, but I feel confident this is going to release in November. If they were working on the box two months ago it can’t be far off now.
I just reeeeeaaaallllyyyy hope they start shipping before the holiday rush begins. I’d love Nate and John to come home before the end of the year, but I also want them to arrive safely.

I’d prefer to wait till January. Holiday shipping is horrible + black Friday is on the corner, it gonna be a mess, especially international shipping. Fingers crossed everything goes smoothly.

Yeah, I really hate having figures delivered in this period, it takes literally over a month for them to arrive and I'm always afraid it's gonna get lost.
