    I want to get these rxh collabos first into order (mini sized pics, infos,...)...but can also add the statuettes and esp. the onell(?) and fig.lab(?) collabos here if that´s interesting for some ppl here.. :razz:
    he is indeed a talented guy....and I really think you need to hold his toys in hand to see how cool they are....!

    true !
    I love the Mirock EVIL because of EXACTLY this (the nose :lol: )....I think these new-interpretations give them freshness.
    Also, some ppl say the standing position in this "fragile" way is strange...this is what makes it for me !
    and the oversized heads are also fun !
    I really hope he will have more and more fans in the future...

    I usually don't just outright knock a toy, but there is nothing redeeming about these, in my opinion. They remind of a weird early 1990s polygonal design that you might see in an early "next generation" video game or a movie, and not in the good weird way, either. That or the Transformers reimagining, which I also can't stand, design-wise. Add that to the flames (which I just now noticed) on their heads and I have to wonder what the motivation for that design element was.

    But to each their own, amirite.

    Killer duo, K!

    Man, another quick sell-out on the new stuff. I may have to be satisfied with my unpainted black set.

    I still think the SDCC gold Evil is my favorite. I really regret not buying one.

    I still don't understand these. I get the process and can completely appreciate it talent wise but I don't understand the appeal in final form.

    They seem so ill proportioned and way to angular. For the new or diehard RxH fans, simple question, but why do these stand out?

    I love the mutant head and hone borg so it's not bashing...I just don't understand these at all.

    I honestly cannot figure it out either... I'm really hoping there's some kind of new body coming with the Pheyaos head, because the primate-like appearance of the mutant body is just awful. I think the hard edges and the style are neat, I just don't think the whole package is attractive, or that they'd be any fun in hand. They look like they were supposed to be much taller, and they just gave up at the waist and threw on some vestigial legs.

    Personally I only like the Evil. After seeing them on hand that's really the only one that appealed to me. I really like the hard angels of the sculpt. I still think the head and chaos are okay but the only sculpt I'd want own is the Evil.

    while there is a lot to like with the concept and all the raw angles, the poop squat and hot rod flames get in the way. hopefully he will keep trying this style on future bodies until it's just right. and flame-less.

    i wonder how q-e-e-esque faux wood paint would look on these?
