You my friends are bullies, I want to butter your breads with the love from Lennon and you jest me? When this is the figure of the year I hope some of you lose your preorders!

That's all well and good... but again, why have a seamless body when everything but the wrists (which still have a joint) and neckline will be covered. The loss of articulation seems like a poor trade off and you could certainly keep costs down with a different body.

It's not anything that Phicen hasn't already done.

Their Arnold body is pretty damn awesome.

Yup, full metal skeleton. Any natural pose you want. Sure all their males are muscular but a average skinny white boy is something they would do if people actually wanted that.

Yeah, this was my position when I first heard what they had in mind for this figure. Sure, it's innovative, and I'm curious about this skeletal body underneath, but ain't this....overdoing it? I will be picking up a second jointed KO body on ebay for the extra sculpt and outfit. Besides, I'm just not crazy about rubber bodies.

If people want to pose a "Two Virgins" John, seams would be bad. Options. Options. Options.

Isn't it going to be a pain in the ass to change clothes on a seamless figure like this? Can you bend back the arms enough on a phicen body to slip a jacket on like you could w/ any other normal body?

It is. Getting clothes on the figure is one thing, adjusting the clothes once on is a whole other animal.

Yeah... and a large body like that can be used for figures where you would see more of their arms and torso... but with this figure it's all covered by the outfit.

I remember the owner on the podcast say the skin would be thin enough so as not to hamper articulation, I think he said that was one of the things he disliked on other seamless bodies, the fact articulation was compromised.
Looking at its skeleton also, that looks like it would be quite articulated to me so that and the skin being thin I dont think it would be a problem.

I guess we will see.

Sounds like they want a lot of bodies tearing then

Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

These pics from their forum more clearly show the body.
































These actually look like it might be a real, manufactured product. . . perhaps sprayed with primer.

The boots close-up pics look real, there's some small defects there, that probably wouldn't be if it was computer generated. . . or maybe they put it there intentionally to fake everyone out. You can never know with these guys.

Why did they sculpt his **** spread open like that?

did Yoko Ono give them this important detail for the sculpt ?

I am happy to see real photos! The body is looking great
