I got mine this morning and had about 2 minutes to look at it before work but I agree the head doesn't look as big in hand as it does in pictures. It is a little over sized but not as noticeable.

Coen Brothers FTW. If I didn't already have a Dude I probably wouldn't have bought Anton.
 
seen bullets figure in hand today and gotta say wasnt to impressed. outfit and accessories are great, but the head is almost comicly big and there seemed to be an over abundance of red paint on the neck and side of the head. Rainmans a legand but this is a miss in my opinion.
 
Looks great in those photo's Bullet , head size looks much better to me there. :) Not sure about the red paint ?. I'll let you know if mine shows up the same way.

Seems this release is having quite a few problems with stuff arriving with parts missing , paint problems and the head size.
 
Got my TTM21 in today, is there any easy way to get these foot peg sockets dettached from the foot haha?

If your lucky the glue should give way I just cut down the seam at the back you pretty much destroy the foot but not like you need it anyway.

I'd imagine all the fullsets will be the same as mine. Its not like the paintjob is flawed its clearly intentional. Rainman has just painted him as if he's been out in the sun a little bit too long. Bit too much blush around the jawline and neck. Really not noticable under the light in my home so no complaints from me.

I can see from the pics its there on others fullsets you'll see what I mean when it arrives I think.
 
Just added some bubble wrap around the thighs and a lil' bit under the foam vest. Think it looks much better. Oh and Pop, no leg extenders on the body.

Thanks for the info bro. That's a huge improvement. IDK if it's just the angle but filling out the thighs looks like 80% of the remedy. Really that looks near perfect right there because the clothes are fitting perfectly; but I guess if people wanted to take it further, you can play around with filling out the upper body very slightly.


On my way to pop my box open and see what's going on for myself :panic::panic:
 
Finally picked up my HC set. AMAZING!!!! Now the hard part....waiting until I get off work in 8 hourse to get home and put him all together. Already have my body waiting with the foot peg holders taken out of the feet. Unfortunately I was not one of the lucky ones for the transponders. The art book is also absolutely stunning. I already can't wait for next years version.
 
All my New York, New Jersey, Philly, Conneticut and Boston freaks who are in the middle of this Crazy Winter Blizzard stay safe. If your snowed in enjoy the family, mess around with Anton and kick back to watch a few flicks. My rotation tonight is DJANGO, Life of Pi and........No Country for Old Men! :clap.

Wow AJ it's really hammering out on the Island. huh. Didn't get that bad here yet but it coming. All my north east Freaks, stay safe. This is gonna be a whopper.

Nice review Mags! Gotta agree on two important shouts. Turbo for all that ace reference material and Army for coming up with that top 10 system. First and foremost it's fun. Everyone can have their own beliefs but I'll put my money on the fact that that's how Anton came to life :duff


I've been messing around with him for the last 2 hours so I'll drop some of my initial thoughts too.

First the art book. Great touch and a great gift from Rainman. He didn't spare any expense to get this made at a high quality. I'm sure that everyone who was involved had as much fun as I did, and is as proud to be included in the book as I am. Needless to say we are all very appreciative for this recognition from The Man.

The figure; RI-DIC-U-LOUS!!! Personal opinion: Does it dethrone the Butcher??...no. On my rating scale it is DEFINITELY his 2nd best ever. This is considering the entire package; sculpt, paint, accessories & outfit. Bills knife set is damn MFin' good...but I believe that this is his best accessory set to date. And that's saying a ton because we all can probably agree that of all his phenomenal talents, accessories are his strong point.

The red on his neck that some of the guys have mentioned is definitely there and is definitely intentional. I guess it's a pigment technique. IMO not his best approach and it does lose a point or two on the paint because of it, but in no way is it a deal breaker or a fail or anything like that. It's not his best touch but it's pretty easily overlooked as far as I'm concerned.

The outfit is spot on and he did a great job on the boots too. The sculpt is only slightly big, but it's true that it shows more in pictures. Really the head is to scale but it's the body and clothes that aren't, which makes it seem bigger. (When you start to pad the body up, the sculpt looks more fitting and it all ties together better).

The proportions are off but can be brought up to speed with the right padding. Really no amount of padding can make him perfect nor is there a perfect body substitute to give him perfect proportions. At this point there is no way to achieve his exact proportions because the clothes are tailored to fit the new Regular TT and that body is just a bit too small for Anton. To really capture his physique Rainman should've made a real deal fat suit that respected Bardem's build (instead of the foam vest) and then tailored the clothes accordingly.

His shoulders, gut & legs need to get filled out a bit. I padded his gut for a small spare tire and put on thigh extenders; already he has improved a ton. I'll post pics tomorrow when I'm done fattening him up and I'll share the recipe
