Looks like that hair is poking out in about every frame of E.C. Segars comic lol. The 3d render looks so much more like the cartoon images.
I can deal with the hair. It's the rest of the face that's bad. It doesn't look like the comic character either. THE GD CHIN. Terrrrible. The body proportions still look off to me. The flow from thigh to those bell bottoms are just...The gaping mouth looks more appropriate in a small comic frame than blow up to action figure size...so many problems.

The movie? I want to like it but I've tried several times and disappointed. Maybe I'll try one more time.

AS FOR BRUTUS....BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!! I love the squat style and everything. Great facial expression. Would be nice to have an ALT. head but I will take it as is. I know people generally like a "resting" type face.
Not sure whats up with those REALLY LONG elbow/forearm hinges??
And again! the FOOT WILL NOT MOVE UP if the pant leg is resting on top of the shoe. All that articulation in the legs is useless without great ankle articulation.

CASTOR OIL...Looks accurate enough. Meh. Bring on Wimpy. That "THIMBLE THEATER" picture of all the comic characters doesn't have
a dud in the lot and they pick Castor? Zzz. BUT OKAY! I"M JUST HAPPY TO GET POPEYE FIGURES!!!!!

PLEASE FIX POPEYE!!!!!!!
Also I hope that this is going to be a smaller 5.5. inch thing. Like vintage TMNT or MOTU or HASBRO WWE size.

So is Popeye going to come with spinach or a chicken?
