Not at all. Some people think it looks good. I don’t like the head gap. The fact the ears don’t move with the face annoys me. I don’t like that rubber type skin, it doesn’t show details well and it’s long term survival is questionable at best. I’m not much of a fan of its colors either...I know it will change as it would get to production, but the grey model looked better to my eyes.

The fact I just looked and it’s down to 4888 from a high of around 5140 or so is shocking, this has lost almost 300 backers. The Star Wars team better come up with something quick here. Because this looks like it’s going to fail. I am beyond saddened for black series collectors right now.

I saw this floating around. The rancor would still need work in my eyes, but those should have been the goals. This would have would well over 30,000.
