Thoughts....
Cleopsis: I want to know what is under that mask. The little exposed flesh that we can see, especially the knee, worries me. I'm put most in mind of Cronenberg's "The Fly" remake. NOT a favorite movie of mine, I hate body horror like that. This is the "Eater of the dead." What eats the dead....? Think about it.
So, I need to see closer, better pix. If the mask is removable, I'm going to need to see what's underneath. [I think its probably not removable, though.] Jury verdict: still out. No bugs, kthxbai. She could be a snake-lady, though. I would be down with that.
Kier: From the waist up, this figure just cant be beat. Lovely face, cool corset, sword is a go, cape, yaaaaaas to the cape, hair excellent and we have the benefit of masked vs unmasked heads. That hand! With the smoking skull! WOW. Cons: She's a warrior. With bare feet. And unarmored legs. Warriors rarely do their thing basically naked from the waist down. they don't go into battle barefoot. Top half does not equal bottom half: I am confused. Jury verdict: still out. But that hand with the skull... wow.
[And what's WITH all these bare feet, anyways? Does Lord Death not provide footwear for his female staff, what's up with that?!! "ARE THERE NO LOUBOUTINS IN HELL, O MASTER?!" I would cry.... and probably be banished to the lower Ninth level. Oh well!]
And that leads us to..... Xiall. Xiall. Proudly posed in a classic summoning stance,with regal staff denoting her status and just rocking the house from the tip of her bone crown to the bottoms of the aforementioned natural high-heels. Its almost like her feet were bound in life. She is regal, the more I look at her the more I like her. Jury verdict: a strong contender.
Gallevarbe: still staying.
Machiko: in serious danger of being dethroned from my preorder list. However, nothing shall be decided hastily.
Hot Toys Ellen Ripley: Normally I'd be all over that. But I have seen these evil ladies, and so I doubt she will come to live here.
Pinhead: The husband likes him. Ut-oh.
'Cause I am not cancelling Machiko, no matter what. I DONT HAVE ROOM FOR ALL THESE PFs!
