Oh my GOD, that looks so much better!

It's pretty surprising how much better looking the Sideshow one's are. The HT feel like they are higher quality, but the look is totally wrong.

Looking at pictures of this on Ebay I see that he must have a rubber upper body like the HT, as there are no joints. I was hoping this one would be harder plastic, as even the possibility of deterioration of the HT would worry me.
What's the material like in hand?
He looks like he'd be a good replacement for the floppy, skinny Sideshow version I have.

It is reassuring to hear that the "knock offs" are decent quality. I have been eyeing them up for some time but wanted to make sure that the rubber didn't split or perish or that there weren't other obvious problems. Now to battle with my conscience...
In the meantime, my custom Kroenen to look at. I started with the Sideshow Kroenen and the swapped out pretty much all of him. He is now on a TTM-16 body, with a bodysuit by Kato, the mask is by taylerdurdem on OSW (I bought a second mask so that I could have assassin and officer Kroenens, and then stuck with his as the paintwork is so much better than on the Sideshow one), boots by DiD. I still want to find a replacement for his bendy plastic blades, but no luck so far. I might just colour them with metallic wax and hope for the best.
And the Kroenen brothers. I am not finished with officer Kroenen. My main kvetch is that the cap looks too small on the mask. It is a 3R Heydrich cap and I unpicked the seam at the back so that it would fit over his head. But it still looks too small scale wise. Anyone know who makes SS caps for blokes with fat heads?

I have never liked the baggy pants on my HT Hellboy. These look great. They make all the difference. I may have to hunt down a Sideshow Hellboy figure now.

I really like the look of them, they fit better and are not as shiny. You can get a Sideshow Hellboy pretty cheap... I paid around $20 for a loose one and right now I'm selling the rest of him (except for the pants) on eBay.
Parted out I'm already up to $30 for the remainder with about 3 hours left

Where can I find a loose bullet from HT Hellboy? About to get a LIB but a bullet is missing from the box set.

Here it is...
Hellboy II - Prince Nuada's Spear 1:1 Replica
Love it the Mirrored finish & Elfish symbol on the blade is great, i got Nuala's Dagger too which makes for a good letter opener
Pretty heavy though which makes for spinning and twirling it around difficult

Congrats Nova! Nice catch. Very beautiful piece esp. from a Nuada fan here.

^ It's worth it. But you gotta be careful, because it's a dated figure, some of them has cracked rubber, but mine's doin allright after all this time.
