Hmm. I agree that these aren't great, and I've been a bit skeptical since browsing through their other action figures (the doll style isn't great and that's reflected here), but I really like Rusty and the Monarch, and the big sign that says NOT FINAL PRODUCT leaves me optimistic; I assume they'll go through significant changes in the next few months.

I see what they are doing on the faces -- they're using extremely sharp contours on the faces as a way of emulating the drawn lines that exist on the cartoon versions. Their other option would have been to go with smoother, more human-like contours. I think BifBangPow was brave to go with the sharp contours. But it's not how I would have gone.

Nope. Almost all figures at ToyFair say "Prototypes - Design Not Final Pending Licensor Approval" but almost none of them change at all.
