The head stock itself isn't copy righted unless you slap the logo on. The shape of the head stock is generic guitar not trade marked by Fender as it's used by 1000's of brands.

This looks fantastic. Will definitely be ordering. Would be great to see BW taking on more Icons of Music.
Elvis -- 50s, 60s, 70s
Freddie Mercury—Wembley (+ Queen group Bohemian Rhapsody)
David Bowie — Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane, Thin White Duke, Serious Moonlight
Kiss — Destroyer
Prince — Purple Rain (but I do have a custom)
Micheal Jackson — I already have the Hot Toys versions, which I?ll eventually have repainted and haired. However, a MJ Thriller/Werewolf transformation 2-pack would be pretty epic.

How aware Fender is of figures I don't know. Blitzway probably wanted to avoid any issues. You do get head stocks like Fender's just like our figures that are made in other countries that aren't licensed.

Their prototypes always look good.

Let's be real. Their final in-hand products blow anything out of the water that Sideshow has ever given us. There's a reason I've sold most of my Sideshow pieces but have kept the Blitzway stuff. Anyway, looks like the thread has voted and the next 1/6 after Jimi should be Elvis
I'd also love Blitzway to do horror figures like a screen accurate Jason and Freddy from the 1980s. Michael too

I think members of the 27 group should be next. All in for the Lizard King!
Stage 1 - "Wow it looks awesome!!"
Stage 2 - "It's taking so long! Is it coming out. Was it canceled?"
Stage 3 - "Final product looks soft and hair looks trash. Canceled PO."
Stage 4 - "Meh, it looks better in the new pics..."
Stage 5- "I'll get it, but I will have to spend $$$ on upgrades."
Holy cow so true.....
You need some added items . (First blurry blogger pics) between stages 2 and 3.
And actual good pictures properly futzed stage 3 and 4.

I'd say these turned out pretty well
Yeah I regret not picking up the Universal Soldier figs, they were really well done.
Literally music icon collectibles would be a whole new forum and so many new collectors. Better collecting in my opinion.
I agree! Gathering from the response on facebook over 800 shares etc.
Would of been nice if they done Montrey pop as exclusive given the half bit of the guitar.
