The first person I thought of when I saw the Blitzway Tyler Durden was Shai.

I know he's stoked about that figure.

Couple more shots. Just slightly different angles . . .

Amok Time ran this photo yesterday. Is this an unpainted shot of the 1/6 scale figure, or possibly a new 1/10 (7 inch) scale figure?

 

[TheFiend]

Not a fan of the sculpt, but the rest of the figure is killer.

 

[DarkMario616]

I do recall now that pcs wanted to do 7 inch figures.

 

[PopCultKid]

Ah, here's the other thread I was looking for. Mods should merge that other thread with this one.

I'll say it again here, I wish Threezero's Rick was tailored this well

Excellent!

What ?? Wait???

I thought these were suppose to be 1/6????

Sorry but that photo doesn't show the edges of the eyebrows. They would be the same as in the other picture. They would never look like the painting on the sculpt. They are also to narrow.
It's exactly where the hair covers his eyebrows in your picture that the problem is. Also what you see is bushier and thicker than on the sculpt.
See this picture. Those eyebrows are far from what you see on the painted sculpt and therefore it's loosing resemblance:

...the eyes are not perfect, but they are close.The eyebrows are not.

Its the area directly under the eyes.....

[xipotec]

[Johnny Utah]

Probably. Get used to delay after delay after delay.

I asked Jerry a while back and said it will be different than statue release don't think they go up for PO until the figures are ready or something like that.
