that is lame
I don't much like figures from comic movies either. Hell, it's not too often I even like the movies all that much.
I think the main problem is that in the movie, most of the time it's dark, or the people are in the shadows and shit, just doesn't translate well into figures, plus I dont think he's like that all the way through [img]eek.gif[/img]
and maybe because im an optimist with a customizer point of view, but, he's not THAT bad, and/or he's fixable

goddam do those ball jointed shoulders look rediculous when there isn't any other useful articulation on the figure. a big "what the fuck" is goin' out to NECA on that one...
the legs also look pretty fucked up coming out straight at that angle, especially with straight shorts with hardly any wrinkles. i don't know...it's not bad, but just looks pretty off in some spots.
yeah it looks sorta like the sculpted everythign to the bottom of the shorts, then changed the leg stance
and the upper body just looks too much like an old figure, with the straight up and down arm movement, it's too plain, I guess
...at least the shorts are sculpted nicely? [img]redface.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]
First, please understand that I'm speaking as a huge Frank Miller and Sin City fan and NOT as an employee of a different company. I actually like a lot of stuff I've seen from Neca and have never bashed their work.
This, however, is pretty bad. The shoulder articulation is certainly awful, the pose is just weird and it doesn't "feel" like Yellow Bastard. Hell, it almost looks like they photoshopped a finished head onto an unfinished body sculpt.

I think it looks right on since it is from the movie and he does look like that in the trailer, although the shoulders do look weird and the pose is "so so"..I think this line has a lot of potential, lets see what the next figure looks like next week...

think I'll pass on these and wait for a comic based line like I did with Hellboy~
I know squat aboot Sin City, but the fig looks okay...as a fig.
dunno aboot how it SHOULD look, though.
