Considering what HT is capable of at their current level, it's far from perfect. Although in person, I'm slowly starting to gradually see more of Bridge's likeliness.

Too bad the hair doesn't have that bit where it kinda flicks outwards towards the back though.

I didn't see Tron: Legacy until it came out on DVD/BD and have read absolutely nothing about it, though I did see the prototype pics for the Kevin Flynn fig. And when I started watching the film, I went "I didn't know Jeff Bridges was in this".

Yeah...sums up what I think about the prototype sculpt.
 
While that is completely true looking at the prototype pictures, it's only partially true looking at the final sculpt. It looks like Bridges for sure, but the hair sculpt is only partially right. Much better than the proto IMO.


Ah, I should clarify... his beard and hair isn't accurate to the film. And while it IS better in hand, 50% of people who don't know anything Tron Legacy will look at this figure and not know what it is at first, while every other Hot Toys I have is pretty obvious.

It is what it is. I love it because it is the Creator but would love it just a tiny bit more if the facial hair was closer.

This was my point exactly. :goodpost:

I caved in and bought Flynn b/c I'm a Tron fan and want to support the line in hopes of more characters, the ones I really want, being released in the future. I can forgive HT on the facial hair not being perfect, but I can't give them a pass for not even attempting to recreate the neon light of the suit and just slapping an inaccurate black robe on him.

This is really the bottom line. That tried to capitalize on the license while putting little effort into it. They rushed it. Look at how many times the light cycle has been delayed. Maybe they realized that they had to pick it up from Flynn. It's just not very good. It could be. Even the base was done with the right idea (light-up), but little focus on QC because you can see a ton of holes in the black coloration when the light is on in the dark. It's just not up to Hot Toys standards. I mean he was cheaper, but does cheaper now really mean crappier product with HT?
 
It's done :thud:

Very nice custom display base. My only nitpick would be about the font, since it's not from Tron: Legacy. That's the same font from the Spider-Man movies. I think if you would've used the same style of font from the movie it would've looked better. Like this example I just made:

And obviously those fonts could be sized to whatever to fit right. Just my opinion.
