TRU, man. I'll need to have the 2pack in hand to determine whether I like the head better for Jean. As I remember, John Byrne seemed to create a slightly different face for Jean vs Dark Phoenix, despite their being the same person. After checking to refresh my memory, there is a noticeable difference in cheek bones in certain comparative panels, but I'm not sure if that was intentional. Jean's face was more oval and doughy, IMO, while Dark Phoenix had more angles in her face and sunken cheeks. I think your discussion was more about simply not liking the Jean head and had nothing to do with a shared likeness. Personally, I'm indifferent about the Jean head. All I really need from female face sculpts is that they be comely and the Juggs Jean is at least that. I sort of like the idea that possession by the Phoenix-force might alter her facial structure, which could be displayed via a different head sculpt.
