In this last pic his head looks HUGE! reminded me of Bejamin Button.

Nice -- I would like to get my coat to be able to do that!
Top Stick you say, eh? Cut off snap and use top stick and that's what you get? Looks good. Was your snap troublesome too? I guess it was.

Indy had that problem, too.
Turns out the headsize is fine (about the size of a Hot Toys head), but it looks better on a Hot Toys True Type.

Don't have Rene, but Sideshows heads have always been a little bigger.
Maybe the new smaller Prom body made this even more obvious.

It wasn't troublesome, but it looked out of place, so I just snipped the threads holding it on, and that's what you get.
Mine arrived this afternoon. My suit jacket fits fairly well after soaking and stretching. Like many others, the idol environment was my motivating factor and doesn't disappoint, but Belloq's pretty cool and while I agree that for the price, he should be great right out of the box, for me half of the fun is the ongoing tweaking that make's each figure unique to it's owner.

That coat looks better!
I really see the likeness in Tron's second shot there--moreso without the hat. I think it turned out nicely. (And I know what the flash does to pictures, so I'm sure the eyebrows don't look quite so bold in person and under regular lighting.)

Much better with the grey hair.

Glad you were able to score an Exc. Josh. The pedestal will look great with Indy. Tuesday can't arrive soon enough for me.

Yeah, it was funny. I had just put myself back on the WL for the Ex earlier yesterday. So when it went back up for SC I had to go in and cancel that so I could order it.
Belloq looks fine. Maybe not the best figure ever but he looks good. The pedestal will go great with my second Indy Josh is working on.

Its a relief to see jackets that work. Nice shots!
Great work on the hair, Tron! Really improves the Belloq look.

It makes a huge difference... I'm definitely going to do that first thing.

It really does add a lot to the appearance of the figure.
For Wor Gar:
Unfutzed WITH Stand under jacket (therefore pulling it apart, looking like yours normally)
Unfutzed, right out of the box
Hope that helps. I know others have posted pics by now, but since I promised.

looks a lot better
Thanks for that BM!
I emailed SS with a pic so we'll see what they say about mine.
