Pretty nice helmet on those Apollo 11 figures, hmm?
You realise where they cut their moulding on that helmet is slap bang right on top of it? Looks like 3-4mm diameter. Probably more unsightly imo.

The other issue is also how to paint the inside when it's not it two halves.
Yes, you could simply paint the outside, but I bet it wouldn't have the same look as on screen with the smoke coming from the inside and a glass layer in between.

Anyone thinking of putting this together with Zombie Iron Man?

As much as I like the look of Zombie Iron Man, it's an easy pass for me. I am considering getting Mysterio though. What's the word on the Gyllenhaal headsculpt that was teased a while back? Will we get it, or not?
Not me. It looks cool though.
And prob no gyllenhaal?s headsculpt.

I dunno, if we were getting a headsculpt I feel like now would have been the time to show it.

Yeah I agree, I think the decision not to do the headsculpt was made long ago.
As to Zombie Iron Man. I love the look, but immediate thought how, where or with what would I display him. I haven't got a Spidey Far From Home display, so he'd be either with Mysterio or by himself.
I guess it could hold it's own as a stand alone piece. Definitely has enough shelf presence !

I'm sure there'll be a 3P headsculpt. I'd love a figure of his mo-cap outfit lol
They did not show the Killmonger or Ant-Man sculpt until release or just before. I still assume they are planning on including one though obviously it is all just a complete guess.

Yeah but they at least had a blurred out placeholder image on the promotional photos, this doesn't.
IIRC there was a blurred out headsculpt image for this for about 10 minutes, then it was quickly taken down. I think it was on HT's Facebook page...
Yep... I'd say there is a chance that we will get a sculpt for it.
J.C. Also teased a korean artist joining the project sometime after the pre-order went up, but didn't state what that meant exactly. Most assume it was for a Jake sculpt because the only artists credited are usually the sculpt artists.
Guess we'll have to wait and see. It's still about a year away, so no sense in nailing that coffin shut just yet.
Sadly both post taken down a day or so after. Maybe something got to do with licensing issues.

It was just around the time that the Sony/Disney Spider-Man deal abruptly ended. When it was all over the news that Spider-Man would leave the MCU, Tom Holland was gone, Sony didn't want to accept Disney's offer (or the other way around)... Anyway, it was when all that **** was going down that J.C. teased the Gyllenhaal headsculpt. And quickly removed the post.
I always figured it had to do with the whole Spider-Man license being in stormy waters. And seeing they worked it out, I'd say bring the headsculpt.
Ahh that?s true. Hope it worked out though wouldn?t that affect the entire figure and not just the headsculpt?

Stan Lee's helmet also has the same fishbowl seam.

Not sure. Could be that Marvel had the Mysterio rights, while Sony had the actor's likeness rights. Seeing that it was a Sony production of a Marvel property. And when they had a falling out they couldn't include the headsculpt, because Sony wouldn't let them.
Mind you, this is my speculation. Nothing is confirmed or anything.
