If you are gonna go with this license from a film called the Mummy--why not start out with the title character. You know--The Mummy? Releasing B.F.in an attempt to start a line=sabotage.

I agree. One thing I hated about the recent franchise is the focus on the Fraser character. Poor Arnold Vosloo. He did a terrific job filling the (now CGI) gauze worn by Karloff and Lee, and he gets fourth billed.

Can you imagine

DAVID MANNERS
Zita Johann

in THE MUMMY

With Edward Van Sloan
and Boris Karloff

Back in 1932?!
 
1/6 I woulda bit if it looked like Fraser that is.
I know what will be the most common prize during spook 2011.
 
I have to agree with you on that. I mean this looks like a guy at SDCC dressed as O'Connell. Even if I was interested in this, I wouldn't order until they fixed the sculpt. I'm really surprised just how much Sideshow dropped the ball on this. I mean its not one of those cases where the nose it a bit to big or the chin too long. This doesn't even look close. :dunno

Makes me really wonder if there were issues with Fraser's likeness, so they just went with "random dude" O'Connell. Though, the likeness being off would be right up there with their Michael Rooker looking Marcus Wright.
 
I didn't even know there were any fans of this movie? Let alone anyone looking to have an odd looking Brandon Frazier in there collection.
 
In a couple of years, this will be the prize in chat for the next 5 years during Spook!

:lol:rotfl:lol:rotfl But quoted for truth.

Even if this was 1/6, I still wouldn't get it. Dunno if anyone else feels the same, but the likeness is... pretty bad. Looks more like young John Connor than Brendan Fraser. Probably one of the least-impressive PF sculpts they've done. I'm betting it'll also show up on the GC list a few weeks after release.
 
You guys are seriously complaining about how the evil villian is billed lower then the actual hero character? Wow.....

Bwhahaha....holy ____! I totally see it! :hi5:
 
Scrap the Mummy they should of gave us a line called the Legend of Clive Barker and started off with Rawhead Rex or Pinhead. Either statue or 1/6 figures. Then move onto Nightbreed.

Not sure I'd want the Sideshow interpretations though. Clive's work's been licensed out to several companies so we're not likely to see that happen since it'd be a licensing nightmare.
 
None for me thanks--but take a peek and wonder why:

Another Dead end license, what a waste. Of course, you know, the money they lose on all these licenses that don't pan out just get's reflected in a higher product cost for us.

This one will look great on the shelf between The Prince of Persia figure and Van Helsing. :gah:

Yeah---but the movie is called "The Mummy" not the "Brendan Frasier":1-1: Not that it matters much. Because I honestly think that even if they made the Mummy it would be a weak seller. There's just not that devoted a fan base. Van Helsing may even have a more devoted fan base than Mummy does.

____ then...you're right. You know, that movie Predator sucks, I mean, why the ____ are we following Arnold's character??? It's not called DUTCH! Amiright? Alien sucks too. WTF IS THIS WOMEN ____! God that movie blows. Holy ____ The Shining sucks too! Where is this shining??? WTFFFFF!!!!! OMG MOVIES SUCK.
 
I wonder if there's issue using Frasers image like there are with Eastwood and weaver, so instead of an acurate portayal we got a brendanesque figure?
