I don't think the likeness is there. The eyes are lifeless.

Both look great!
Although the second photo (Dog-Thing) is a NECA release rather than Mondo.

He looks rather stiff. Wonder how he moves with that jacket. Face is in line with the other stuff they have on display.
From The Thing animated series?

Can't help but be disappointed with that. It's a Hot Toys figure circa 2005.

Is there really so little demand for this IP that nobody else wants it? How else has nobody made a figure of this guy?
I don't see even a hint of Kurt Russell in this sculpt.

It looks more like Wyatt Russell. Maybe they got confused?

It's got a bit of a Neca Mego reissue vibe.

Looks like an animated Rasputin.

Mondo really overcharge for the quality of their 1/6 releases - they basically are massively overpriced NECA figures (and not even the really good NECA figures)
I'm glad they never produced that planned Doomslayer. He would have been DOOMED to convention hell.

The Thing remake is one of my favorite movies ever but in this case I have to sadly vote with my wallet, it just doesn't look good enough to justify whatever figures cost nowadays.
