Very cool set up.

Looks awesome snaz!

Love the display... c'mon shipping notice..

Nice job with the photos there, not sure if it does anything for me though. It looks like a bash more than something ht made. Nice dio too u got there though.

I can almost accept the likeness, but his head is so damn big.

I was looking forward to this figure but now I've decided not to get it. There's just too much wrong with it, the likeness being off, the head being too big and the rubber vest issue I think is the last straw for me.

Cool setup, Snazaro.

Head size has come up a few times so I thought I'd give a helpful comparison:

 

[Snake Plissken]

It's way too wide, the same way MMS238 was.

If I had to guess it looks like once they made the call to go with a bigger body than the proto had... they must've tweaked the headsculpt on the proto for the worse when it probably would've worked fine and pleased more potential buyers if they left it alone.
A shame.
On the fence, and not sure if I'll get this one either now. Ive passed on so many releases from HT it isn't even funny.

Well considering the last time we got an official commando figure was 1985, there is no way I'm passing on this release, is it perfection no, is it the best commando figure out there, yes I really do like the look of the figure and I'm very much looking forward to getting it, likely a couple of them TBH. My biggest problem is the use of rubber on the arms, not liking that one bit, but it is what it is.

I still got this guy from my childhood, one of the very few that survived and its time for an upgrade

PS mine does not look like this, actually I lost every accessory he came with but I still got him

Pumpkin on a toothpick. Funny thing, the old rubber body on the Dutch was a closer skin colour to Arnie, especially in that picture posted by BMD. Thanks btw for posting the comparison shots.

Forget about Hot Toys, that one is over 16" tall.

Ha-ha you know that thing was the **** back in the eighty's

Most disappointing proto to production from HT ever.

That version will far outlast HT's
