Just a reminder that this is Scott Pettersen's figure and Present Toys is just recasting it, like they do with everything else. :yuck

So anyone thinking this is 'real leather', just understand that these guys are thieves from the start, so do you really want to trust what they say?
That's not Scott's "Lonely Boy." It's a completely different headsculpt and Scott's didn't have any molded belts, etc. The PT suit and boots look more like a "recast" of the Hot Toys one to me based on pics and how I remember it in hand. Scott's had all custom made buckles that I believe were made of real metal with the straps made of real fabric material (leather or pleather, no sure) and same for the hands being real metal too if I remember correctly. The boots on Scott's were also real fabric material from the ankles up and not molded. And when it comes to the civilian look, Scott's suspenders are wider material and included the safety pins where as PTs are just using standard 1/8" elastic bands from the looks. Pants are also a lot baggier on Scott's than PT. From the looks, PT normally uses the real custom item in their promo pics and then do their own thing in production, but this looks pretty different to me from the get go.

Regarding the use of real leather: PT did in fact use real leather on their Indy jacket, so there's no reason to think they wouldn't try that here just as they're also saying their terminator figures will use real leather too. Now, the Indy jacket did not come out looking good b/c of the thicker leather they chose for it and to top it off, it was ill-tailored for the body they used. But it was still made of real leather just as they said it would be.

Below is Scott's 'Lonely Boy." The PT is definitely not a recast of this.

Hmm, it certainly looks like the same sculpt to me. But you'll have to forgive me, as these guys have recasted everything else they've ever done, so perhaps I jumped to conclusions.

I completely understand. And I'm not trying to give them a pass by any means from profiting off of other's work. But from what I can see, this isn't a recast of Petersen's work. More of a HT body recast and either their own headsculpt (doubtful) or someone else's (most likely). But the mouth area and eye shape in particular looks different between PT and Petersen's as well as the overall shape/size of the head to me. The civilian clothing is definitely their own making though from the looks.
 
Present toys just told me they will try to revise the sculpt and provide addition sculpted hair sculpt so 2 sculpts

***NOT confirmed yet*** they will update next week
Thanks for the update Kit! Would be cool if they did included a second sculpt. Already have my order in with you as is, but will never say no to extras either 😁
 
new headsculpt does look good, though still off at eyes and lower face...not sure why that extra pooch below the corners of the mouth..? preordered anyways.
 
So is this means that Present Toys did their own sculpt now? Or is this a scan and then modified? Present Toys seems doing good on their tailoring, but if they made their own sculpt from now on, that’s even better
It looks like anew sculpt. I haven't seen any other custom Edward Scissorhands sculpts out there from them to copy aside from the PorToys one. Based on their current rendering, it doesn't look like a copy of that one, Scott Petersen's or even the Jacob Rahmier modified Sweeney Todd sculpt.
 
Not sure which one I should get, the Present Toys or Art Figures version. I have the Dredd from Art, I still like it.
I don't own any Present Toys, wonder how their final product will hold up.
 
I still enjoy the film.

The likeness seems slightly better on the Art Figure one, but I really REALLY prefer rooted hair... plus the entire extra outfit! I wonder how easy it will be to find that extra outfit somewhere... it will probably be 1/3 the price or something...
