A Concern Regarding The Prometheus Body

[pixletwin]

Dear Sideshow,

With the release of the new Promethus body I have become concerned about its scale when displayed with other figures. The new PRO body is shorter than the standard Art S. Buck figure and standard bodies from other lines such as Dragon or Hot Toys.

Are there any plans to further develop the PRO so that it is more in scale with previous SS lines and other 1:6 companies?

This question came to my the forefront of my mind with the announcement of the new Sideshow 1:6 Lando. He is on a body far too short for the character. Which means should Sideshow ever release and ROTJ Han Solo he will be out of scale with the previous Han Solo releases and, on the new body, the same size as Leia Boushh. ()

Please don't let this happen Sideshow.

Here are some comparison pics:

I prefer the Pro to Buck, but it still has plenty of issues. Sloped shoulders and shortness being the most prominent.

Pro.....Truetype.....Buck



Pro.....Buck

I am bothered by this as well. I'm looking forward to seeing how quickly and effectively Sideshow deals with the situation.

Medi's problem isn't just being short.

Bump for LANDO being on a correctly proportioned PRO.

True. Billy Dee is a six-feet-tall man.
