They improved the figure? Holy shi-
Do you think this is HT's reaction to seeing Enterbay's Vito?

I could care less what it is a reaction to. If the final product looks like this proto, this figure will be easily one 2009's best.

Competition between companies is a good thing, keeps them on their toes, keeps 'em sharp. Promotes quality product on both sides.

If I didn't know HT was putting out this figure, I would've sworn that was a remastered screen cap.

From the new newsletter-
You deserved to have this fabulous Godfather collectible figure! - Thank you all of you! We've received your kind praises via emails and on the web forums. Don't worry, we won't be over prided, you are encouraging us to level up our work!
Capturing every angle of the Don, this figure is sure to be one of the most accurate collectibles of this unforgettable Hollywood Icon - Marlon Brando. Have you preordered your Godfather yet? If not, you better make up your mind after viewing our latest prototype of 1/6th scale Don Vito Corleone collectible figure.
Today, we are glad to share more details of this figure with our newsletter members exclusively! Our costume designer used real fabric and detailed cutting to present the Don's black suit looks exactly the same in the movie. Besides, proper material is another big concern for us – Finally, the triple-layered costume does not make him bulky BUT fits the figure body perfectly!
For sure, the most difficult and important part of this project was the head sculpture of this Mafia leader, our Korean artists grasp the Don's facial expression with his imposing manner shown in the movie, you can even feel his hegemonist power through his eyes! In addition, we've also given him a pair of old man's hands as well.
Well, we knew the cat wasn't perfect, so here we have a newly sculpted lovely kitten for our Godfather.
The last secret is about the chair - something you might not know by looking at the pictures! Someone may say "It's just a chair!", but we don't think so! What you will get is a rotatable chair with adjustable back function PLUS real-like fabric cushion! Surprised?
Last but not least, our Art Director in Chief - JC Hong promised to supervise the mass production and control the painting lives up to perfection. Is that a good news for you?
If you would like to kiss The Godfather's hand "in person", preorder yours via our official dealers while you still can! You cannot claim that we didn't warn you, as our order goes really FAST! This product will be available in April, 2009.
Preview - final prototype of 1/6th scale Don Vito Corleone collectible figure
It just gets better and better and the padded chair sounds great!
And how many people have hegemonist in their vocabulary... cool!

What makes you think they dont monitor the site, Thats what I do!!
Makes me laugh that people have already written off Enterbay.
Hot Toys running scared of a small company like Enterbay, OK, I'm a official dealer of Enterbay so I'm a little one sided, but I also stock Hot Toys too.
Dont get me wrong, HT Godfather is fantastic, just wait to see what Enterbay has on offer.
Would you think HT would of done a tweak if Enterbay wasnt a threat, you guys would of been happy with the 1st proto!

This is deffinetly a two horse race, people may have their favourites but I think both will offer an outstanding product. And the differences are what make this interesting.
At the end of the day it's all about the final product in our hands, but even then people have different ideals. I said a while ago when reviewing the Medicom Stormtrooper that if every company worked from perfect reference to the same scale then The Marmit, Medicom, Hasbro and SS Stormies should all look 'exactly' the same... of course they don't, thank god, because I for one want to see the different aesthetics.
