when i think of cashing in on a sculpt, i don't right away think of killerj and his rip-offs. i think of remco and their warrior beasts, warlords, conan, pirates of the galaxseas, etc. marketed as "plays with (all of those listed above) & other 5 1/2" action figures. (the other's, i'm guessing, is there shady way of saying MOTU....) and i still love 'em. authenticity is overrated.
They look great! Can't wait! We're trying to slow down with purchases for SDCC but I want to make an exception with this one.

I love the old sculpt as well, but KillerJ's version are coming in colors and paint schemes that I would put in my collection. I can't say I like the idea of ripping off another sculpt but many of us may not have had ended up with the original.
