McFarlane generally doesn't do good likenesses. Many of their faces based on actor likenesses come off as too soft and barely resemble the actor. NECA would have been better off revisiting this license. Their headsculpts would have been better and they would have probably included alternate heads (like an unmasked Wesley head) and more accessories too.
I was SO excited at first as well about these.. for, all of the above reasons, the movie being practically universally known and adored by many.. I DO WISH THEY MADE THE FACES BETTER UGGHHHHH. Wesley face to small, ill-proportioned, Buttercup's likeness to Robin Wright, yes " soft", Inigo- SORT of, kinda, almost there but, it also could've been more refined. And Fezzik.. oh, how they missed the ball a bit on this epic character, from the epic movie, with the features and paint on this icon of a person in his own right.. The Hair looks like a melted chocolate cap with 2 butterfingers for sideburns.
