I think we're on the event horizon.

Well, it's a singularity alright...

Yes, we have.

The headsculpt that everyone was making fun of, the one they said they would add detail to in the next step. The figure from that overseas toy show, that was part of the Seven booth.

They've shown the production sample, in that line-up of the three outfits. When they announced it had been approved by the Lennon estate. It's pretty clear it's degraded from the hand-painted proto.

That endo that was majorly stepped down from that skeleton-looking render that was posted at the outset.

They've shown a number of molded pieces, like the hands, the boot bottoms.

You could easily cast that sculpt at home same with the hands, didn't look like a factory piece just something quickly cobbled together from bits.
The pic of all three outfits on their website looks pretty photoshopped to me so they're possibly not even a full figure.

2029???

Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With plenty of fibs, and plenty of lies..
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
There’s no way that I’m going to buy..

Plenty of renders they’re hoping you see
Taking your money away
Climb on this thread with your head in the sky and your gone!

Choosey TIL I See What I’m Buying....ah!

Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

Interesting, but this could easily be the same prototype that has been seen before.

Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

Not trying to be smart but what does this change?

 

[RiggsMcClane]

Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

Nothing. The same proto they've been showboating all along.

Looks like a 'Exclusive Premier' level figure from the 90's in those shots.

Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

Sorry guys It's the one they showed ages ago after looking at it on the laptop.
Still weird as to why they didn't post this on the normal site.

Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

Because they are playing games... hoping many will think this is new... and order.

Re: Molecule8 - 1/6th Scale John Lennon

So now I have to go train with Pai Mei to get the figure? My Cantonese is terrible.
