Looks evil. Mirror Mirror Kirk!
Ok, here's my photoshopped "fix":
What I did:
- made the forehead wider on either side, or receded the hairline on the sides, however you want to call that
- "Painted" over the moles on the left cheek: Pine has them, Kirk doesn't
- changed the eyes
- edited the lips
Now, the first three are just paint really. An easy fix.
The third, all I did was take the left side of the lip (our left, not his), mirrored it over the right, then stretched it by all of about 2%. The stretching may not have even been needed. It's just a little off on the right, and needs a few paint touchups. No biggie!

Well, maybe it's the lack of paint on the prototype that makes it hard to tell. But the mouth looks better on the proto.

Yes, the mouth fix is an improvement...as well as his eyes looking forward instead of up. Makes him look less angry.

I think this needs another round of tweaks as mentioned above. Not a jaw dropper like Spock. We also need to see a profile shot.

We have a winner.
It's amazing what a few small tweaks can do to improve the likeness.
Hopefully these small revisions will be taken into consideration.
Thanks, guys!
Good point on the hair. The hair color did need a little tweaking, it's especially noticeable in Into Darkness.

Figures will not be numbered. however a signed certificate will be included.
How long is the pre-order window open for? I'd like to get them both but some real world stuff is gonig to make it be a while before I have the funds.

The original prototype was great but in my opinion this latest sculpt is a much closer likeness. I think it is great and I will be very satisfied with this new sculpt. If Denny and crew want to tweak it some more that's fine but it is great. I do agree the hair should be lighter though.
Hi Wake any discount codes for your site?

Hey Wake is there anyway Denny would offer a second shirt with the Brash Captain set? The shirt I'm talking about is the black long sleeve shirt he wears in movies 1 and 2.
