IMO the GOD statue has better likeness than the ETD one, granted the jaw shape on the ETD one is more accurate as it is a rounder shape and smaller chin, whereas the jaw on the GOD statue was too masculine as it was very bulky and wide with a longer chin. However, the GOD statue captures the core likeness of Bruce better like the nose, eyes and mouth, it's just the shape of the face was wrong.

I think it is better overall as the jaw shape is more accurate and smaller chin but the shape of the nose and proportion of the inner features just don't look as spot on as the GOD one IMO.
This just looks like a screen shot from the movie, despite the googly eyes.
I believe that the reason a lot of people think the likeness is better on the ETD one is because it has the iconic war cry expression.

they both have the same niggles,from certain angles they look very good,other angles they look a tad off,but these are going to be the highlight of my collection

I have to agree with Darkavatar. Structural issues aside, the core likeness is closer in the GOD statue. I've thought this since I first saw the ETD version. Everything about the ETD statue is perfect except for a stunning likeness. It feels a little generic, and more like a Bruce Lee impersonator for mine. But likeness can be such a subjective thing and may change again in hand.

I can see steve's point.i think it kinda reminds me of arnie's ETD A and B. core likeness was more apparent in A but less so in B.with a similar expression.
and the ETD statue sculpt looks great at some angles yet kinda off in others.but I still cant wait to get him.

Are you looking at the core likeness of the sculpt like the inner features or are you looking at the sculpt overall? If you are talking about the sculpt overall I would agree that the ETD one is better as it doesn't look deformed. However, if you zoom up on the just inner features and just take into account the position of the facial features and shape of the nose etc, it doesn't look as spot on like GOD as a lot of those things are off about it.
Me to, I thought wow the shape of the face is perfect but the core likeness just isn't as good as the GOD statue.
Yeah that's true.
Although TBF the ETD statue still actually looks like Bruce Lee whereas Version B didn't look any thing like him IMO. If it wasn't for that war cry expression on Version B, I doubt anyone would think it was Bruce Lee.
Yeah it is still a great statue, it's just the core likeness is not as good as the GOD statue IMO.

I think the expression may effect the overall sculpt. And maybe the hair is too neat. But in some pics looking from a front left view it looks really good. Yet on a rightish side one not so. But we just like to be picky lol.

I just picked up the GOD statue , what a stunning piece by blitzway. I went for the reg version as I prefer the wood but what I do like about the exclusive is how you get the reflection of the trainer tread on the base . Buzzing to own this superb piece.

Kinda seems like discussing inaccurate features of a toy sculpt, is just so pointless, when you think about how a real life person should be alive today.
RIP Brandon Lee.

still don't buy the explanation of his death either

Neither do I, a bit of a coincidence that he dies just shy of 20 years after his father died.
