A Second Head

Ken Plume's FRED has another, more varied look at the new line of Venture Bros. action figures. This time we have classic 21's head, complete with paint. More heads as they become available!

That doesnt look anything like 21. It looks more like a young Rodney Dangerfield. Man, I am disappointed.

Its impossible for a sculptor to capture the full cartoon style in the peice while keeping the figure attractive, I feel that it is an acurate interpitation though.. It's not perfect but they can't get too much closer..

Sorry but I don't agree that it's impossible to capture a style and keep it attractive at the same time.

Examples from the top of my head... The yellow Submarine Figures, Futurama Figures, Genndy Tartakovsky clone wars Action figures,TMNT action figures from the old ones to the new ones and even the ones that look like the original comicbook versions of the characters. The only trick you need to keep a figure true to the model is talent.

And yeah, that head is not bad but it's also not 21's. That's what I feel.

Uh yeah. I meant everything I said there but I didn't want to sound so mean. That was the rage of the geek in me talking. Now I can have a good night's sleep.

Any imperfections, and there's bound to be some, I'm chalking up to that whole "being done in the 70's style" thing.

Are they applying the 70's look to the entire figure or just the packaging?

Well, they are Mego dolls. I mean, they're sort of inherently 70s style just by being Mego dolls. Also check out some pics... http://www.megomuseum.com/remego/bbp/toyfair/

That head also looks like it might be a prototype head, which means it will generally be imperfect in some way because the molds it's made from aren't super high qualify factory ones that get used hundreds of times.

First footage! Title revealed! https://youtu.be/eXJ5OM9RfV8 Synopsis and cast too! “In The Venture Bros.: Radiant Is the Blood of the Baboon Heart, a nationwide manhunt for Hank Venture leads to untold dangers and unexpected revelations, while the Monarch is literally out for Dr. Venture’s blood. An imposing evil from the past reemerges to wreak havoc on the Ventures, the Guild, and even the Monarch marriage—it will take friends and foes alike to restore the Ventures’ world to order… or end it once and for all.” The voice cast includes the returning James Urbaniak as Dr. Venture, Patrick Warburton as Brock Samson, Michael Sinterniklaas as Dean Venture, Chris McCulloch as Hank Venture, and The Venture Bros. co-creator Doc Hammer as Dr. Mrs. The Monarch. (Hammer and series co-creator Jackson Publick also wrote the script, and Publick directed.) Other voice cast members include Nina Arianda as Mantilla, Clancy Brown as Daisy and Red Death, John Hodgeman as Snoopy, Hal Lublin as Clayton, Jane Lynch as Bobbi St. Simone, Charles Parnell as Jefferson Twilight, Jay Pharoah as Nuno Blood, Steven Rattazzi as Dr. Orpheus, JK Simmons as Ben, and Dana Snyder as The Alchemist. A project of Titmouse, Adult Swim, and Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment, all that radiant baboon heart blood will be gushing forth later this year. Go Team Venture! https://gizmodo.com/venture-bros-movie-adult-swim-warner-bros-animation-1850353234

Okay, Venturoos. Here's what ya get for the Extras, at least on the DVD version. I felt it was a little light, but that's just my opinion. Deleted Scenes (as always) - Some are B&W sketches with the dialog, others are animated with the dialog. Ghost in the Pro-Blem - An extended view of the distorted images of events from the Pro-BLEM's point of view. Maybe there are some clues hidden in it if you like frame-by-frame advancing. Maybe not. Sirena Goes Off... - Cristin Milioti ad-libbing way more dialog than the script calls for. Poor Rocco. Promo - Basically the season 7 promo. Maybe there's Easter Eggs to find. I haven't done any extensive searching yet. If anyone finds any feel free to post them here!
