Great video that brings out the likeness to MJF at the 14 minute mark. I was criticising the sculpt when we saw first pics but I’m loving it now. Absolutely gorgeous.

I believe people were to judging whereas i think it will look very awesome in hand. These knee jerk reaction happens more than once.
I think it looks really good. Not sure if it bests the first version, but it's just a matter of degree and personal preference at this point. Neither is a slam dunk, Trevor Grove-level homerun, but few sculpts are.

The new head sculpt is growing on me. I can see what they were going for with the expression.

For me the likeness is there on the sculpt just the hair paint is meh.
Correct me if I am wrong but isn’t EG part 3 Marty sculpt the same as this just the hat & different hair?

No, I think they're different. The JC Hong images for the Part 3 sculpt, show a pretty good likeness to Michael J Fox, whereas this one misses the mark entirely.
So frustrating because this is the look I want, and they botched it twice.

Even Trevor can't successfully translated MJF to the T (NECA sculpt anyone?)

I really just want Einstein to be honest. I realize it isn’t that great, but I still want him to go along with Marty and Doc.
Buy me Marty and I'll give you Einstein.
V1 looks like he just came back from the tanning salon, caught a cold, and is on the verge of sneezing

Speaking of, JOhnny Cheung did an amazing 1/6 scale custom run on Teen Wolf years ago that I was very happy to support.

Would be a nice Hot Toys property for the future, if they are into Michael J. Fox now for some reason.

Redman, Dark Toys, or Black 8 coming in 3..2..1.
That one was such a low run that the likelihood of that happening is lower than with other figures. But sure, there is always a possibility of some low life recasting the sculpt and then going to town.
Of course, the real hair version would be much harder to replicate.

His hair looks different in both photos. It's like two different haircuts. The bottom pic looks cooler tho.

Even as a kid I always thought it funny how his hair changed after picking up the newspaper.

His hair is the longest when he shot the first experiment at Twin Pines Mall...
