I often think that of prototypes and then everyone here on the forum will start painting the kit and I fall in love and want it after all

I feel exactly the same way, the clay version was so amazing, it could have been the angles but I was counting down the days to his pre-order, until I saw prototypes yesterday and it turned into a hard pass for me. His eyes are so close together or something, I’m not sure exactly what it is.

Posing and photography make a huge difference in what I’m seeing in the prototypes…he is a very winsome sculpt…a serious little guy…yet…I think I will pass on this one.

I was going to order, but I have so many right now, that I need to be more selective…

I have so many I’m afraid to count them but I really, really wanted this one. I hope he lives up to my expectations. None of the prototypes look like I envision him. I want to have nothing in the works when he arrives so I can start on him right away.
