NECA hit a home run with this one. I try to collect every Creature from the Lagoon model and figure going. Impossible to have them all but at least I've viewed the ones I don't have. So in the 6 to 7 inch articulated figures from all companies, this one is the best, IMO. Truly the best sculpt going. The switch out heads and hands add to the cool factor. Down points: While highly articulated, I don't like the articulations on the chest and waist. The original costumes of the Gillman could not move in such a way and I think that to eliminate them from this figure would have added more integrity to the costume lines. Also, I only collect the 1/10 scale figures for very special characters. I'm into the 1/6th (12 inch) collecting. Had NECA done this guy in that scale, it would be the best figure ever. For the obsessive collector: The body is the Ben Chapman suit used when the Creature is on land and not the Ricou Browning suit used in the underwater scenes. The price tag is rather high but I guess it's worth it.
