Judge's Comments:
Robert - I was not expecting this one. I don't collect this size, or any Sideshow/Hot Toy figures, but this was a very fun change of pace and there's a level of authenticity and detail you can't beat when you are working at this scale. I loved seeing one of these customs get back to SE's roots and show him with a more modern origin/backstory. I loved reading the file card write up as much as seeing the figure. Without being more of a collector, I can't speak to the construction of the parts, but as a concept this just made me smile!
