If any of you guys are Anime fans your know who this is in no time. I based this version of Batou from his appearence in Stand Alone Comlpex. HE started as a Street Fighter Guile figure wit a WWE Rob Van Dame Head modified to resemble the big ole Cyborg. He has 2 sets of hands a removeable chest harness, rocket launcher, and SMG.

but now you have me imagining RVD playing Batou in a live action ghost in the shell movie
and I don't think that's a good thing  | |

[list][*]the mold is a bit more on the realistic side,[*]the proportions are off some,[*]and I guess I've got each of the characters from GitS just etched in my mind from either the manga or the anime series.
I think the last item really is the thing, and I have to admit that's all me anyways. That being said, if this is a bit of a reimagining of sorts of Batou, I'd say it works. Regardless, it's a nice piece | |

Regardless, it's a nice piece | He should have more shoulder muscle, I think, and the face is off. juuusssttt a lil, but enough to throw you off. Still, it's an awesome piece.
Like SQ7, I'm a very big fan of the movies and particularly the SAC series, so it's burned into my head too. | |

IMO, one of the greatest manga and anime EVER. It's VERY well done on all counts and in every incarnation. | |
