Re: Official Enterbay Bruce Lee Line Thread

It's a different scupt altogether.

EB's is done by YJ

Oh! I though the smiling headsculpt was taken from Arnie's main sculpt. No wonder it has something off about it. I really liked YJ's work on The Jack Bauer and Goku, but he just doesnt seem to be able to nail Bruce the way Arnie does.

We all know Arnie is Bruce Lee king!

HT has Arnie now, and as much as I respect and love Yulli's work I think they should use him too, after all if they want to put their strongest cast list on Hong Kong's favourite son, they should do it now!

Re: Official Enterbay Bruce Lee Line Thread

Like most, I have followed Arnie's Bruce works since '04/'05 & for the 1st time, I'm actually pretty impressed with a Bruce's head done other than the Master. I personally like both protos & thought them appropriate for the different smiles Bruce had in different movies/times.

Arnie's had always come across as portraying Bruce's genuine happy/cheeky smile (eyes are usually more squinted when associated with a real natural smile), so more suitable for WOTD or his off screen persona.

Y.J's smiling Bruce, be it intentional or otherwise, have eyes that don't squint as much so the impression I got was more of an alert, 'taunting' smile, which I reckon is coincidentally very apt for the bamboo scene with Dan in GOD.

Hopefully the 1st head of Y.J's will be tweaked further cos this set is definitely heading towards my 'must buy'.

That's a pretty awesome sculpt. For a min, I thought bruce was alive.

EB continues with great-looking heads.

Re: Official Enterbay Bruce Lee Line Thread

This quarter-scale smiling head has only been posted by Arnie himself, on his personal blog and on Facebook. I don't know whether or not Enterbay owns the rights to it. Hot Toys hasn't released a bust in a long while. So I wonder whether this sculpt will ever be available.

Regarding the upcoming "Game of Death" figure ... the shape of the head/hair is off.

Body pictured is a prototype.

How anybody can find fault in this headsculpt is beyond me.
It looks amazing, plus it's one of two great sculpts coming with this figure.
This could turn out to be the ultimate 1/6 Bruce Lee figure to own

Re: Official Enterbay Bruce Lee Line Thread

great sculpt, but i like Arnie's better

Re: Official Enterbay Bruce Lee Line Thread

What i just realized was that that specific GOD Smile represents the smile from the Fight scenes in the tower,looks just like him from that scene when he was tapping the Bamboo stick on the floor.

Arnie's sculpt represents a Natural Bruce Lee smile,so that's different.

Arnie Kim could take a dump, mold it and people would love it.

Only if it was presented as a true 1/6 scale of a real life turd. I bet the articulation would be awesome but it would probably make a better statue.

yup, thats what I realised too, I was watching The Immortal Dragon last night and when I saw the part where they show the full footage shot by Bruce for Game of Death I realised the same... the tapping to the bamboo stick to 'shave and a haircut, two bits'. The face has been sculpted really perfectly for that scene, my bad however the hair piece needs a little tweaking. Also the first neutral sculpt head also has to be changed. Thats just not Bruce Lee...

Re: Official Enterbay Bruce Lee Line Thread

Oh okay I've now read through the last few pages of this thread and I understand what's going on now. Wish I did that before posting in the thread Wookster just started about HT's new announcement though.

Silly me.
