Kickass writeup Scott!  It's great to see the figure you wanted so badly was executed so well.   8)

Congrats, Scott! Glad to see the Maker immortalized in glorious plastic! Thanks for getting him done (and to the others who help as well).

Now, we need to get our local group to have an Ice Cream social soon.  ;)

Agreed, the figure's incredibly well done.  Nice sculpting details to the jumpsuit, the belt, the accessory...  I thought the detail of the headsculpt really won it though.  It's quite accurate.

Maybe you can track down the sculptor someday on that one.  Get an autograph for yourself on it, and maybe auto one for him too.

Again, congrats Scott! I can't even begin to imagine the joy and excitement you must be feeling actually having a fully LFL/Hasbro sanctioned ICMG in your hands.

Great write-up Scott, and way to go for seeing it through. That's a pretty nifty bit of work on Hasbro's part as well.

Scott, that was a very enjoyable read. It's awesome that just a few fans were able to get enough popularity for an otherwise boring character and to ultimately get an action figure released. This will be one BAD that I will pick up for sure.
