Next up for the leftovers from The Bad Guys is Buzzard.

Buzzard was the one named character who appeared as a 5" figure, but not as a 1:18 figure. Buzzard is getting a gender-bend here, and re-imagined as the co-pilot for The Big Bad Chopper.

I'm happy with how the painting turned out, particularly on the face. But overall this figure is a flop. I oversculpted the helmet size, which hurts the figure because it's already very small framed (a Princess Leia figure).

Four to go and The Bad Guys are done!

Looks great to me! The sculpting and painting are top-notch. Helmet proportions are a tricky thing and very subjective. This feel just right from my perspective. (Side note: I'm always a bit annoyed when new takes on Wild Weasel or Televipers make their helmets smaller. The giant melons on the originals were perfect.)
