There are constructive ways to say what you said.
Do you want Asmus to leave the board again?
Also, you did mean to sound like a dick, and that's how you came across, so well done.

Looks way better.
Asmus Toys should be congratulated for entering the lions den where others fear to tread or having done get eaten alive.
I think this looks closer to Chris Pratt than Kurt Russel.
The head in your original strikes me as being too big for the body.
Sorry Asmus, even the earlier sculpt version is not good. Also consider adding a movable eye.
The hair strands looks too thick for some reason.
My recommendation, go back to resculpting from the beginning if you want to sell this. This is a very niche character and only real fans of the movie will buy it and only if it looks accurate. The Sideshow is way better than this in the headsculpt. I would buy the Sideshow one before this right now anytime

I was very excited for this announcement, but unfortunately would likely pass unless the sculpt is updated. Everything else aside from the likeness looks very promising, though!
I think these suggestions are a really good start:
The issues sort of remind me of those with the earlier proto for Mondo’s Mac:
vs. the final proto:
I think going for a hard squint/scowl and the face tapering to a weak jaw really hurt it.

Everything looks solid except the head sculpt. I’m seeing more Jeremy Renner than Kurt Russell in the sculpt.

I really appreciate that Asmus puts up with us and attempts to appease us. The sculpt needs work, and it's great that they listen and want to hold off on PO's until it's updated.
Need another Snake, after selling the Sideshow a few years back. Please ditch the rooted hair and improve the likeness Asmus. That is all.
This is weak. The Sideshow one looks like Kurt, just the paint sucks. This only kinda, sorta ressembles him if you can convince yourself
Personal opinion here of course, but even though they are fielding all opinions…I don’t see the hair or moving eyes as really viable constructive comments YET, we really should be fielding the main issue directly and synergistically (first time I’ve ever used that word). Let’s keep the narrative clear and get them on the right path for the likeness to Kurt. Which we all know hasn’t been nailed 100% yet, the final Mondo sculpt wasn’t terrible. This however, is bad. Let’s avoid a bad headsculpt first. Then complain about features eyes/hair
I think it's better than the Sideshow and don't even have to think twice.
I have the Sideshow and just can't really see Kurt.
