Great figures. Don't worry about proportions. It would cost way too much to design a specific "little person" body for this one toy.
But there are existing child-proportioned bodies that could have been used. The limbs could easily be customized, however.

I'm just glad that these were made in the first place. That said, the very best Saucerman figure was made by Billiken in the eighties. I don't think that one has been topped.

Quite true! Those were beauties. Especially the extra head of the actor under the mask.

It's been a busy summer and I haven't had time to share, but today was a great find as I picked up Mrs. Voorhees and Jason.

Great figures. The Mrs Vorhees set looks great. I have only seen stock photos of it so far. I have it on pre order. I didn't think it was available until the middle of this month. Also, where are Travis' guns? ;D

 All incredibly cool (Leatherface being my favorite). Moe, did you order your Pamela & Jason online, or did you find it in a shop? I like to see things before I buy them (paint apps, shape of package etc.). Yours look great. I have to get that 2pak.

I agree about the Leatherface. My pre order came in a week or so ago. Also, I was just in a store and they had one, I almost picked up a second one. I think it is supposed to be collector friendly packaging, However, it seems sealed up really tight, not like the Distinctive Dummies packaging. Did you open yours? Is it just that I am being too careful with the packaging or does it seem really sealed up? Normally, I don't open anything. However, I wanted to adjust Leatherface inside the packaging.

It's kinda "collector friendly". Some here have been able to just pull theirs apart (depending on how tightly it's sealed). I've never been able to do that. I think you're supposed to cut (carefully) along the perforated lines. Then you can open and seal back whenever you want. Of course, then it's no longer MIB. Mine are kept airtight & sealed, but I really want to enjoy them.

Ya, I figured that. There will be no cutting of the packaging here..lol Still contemplating getting another one. However, I know me. I will get another one to open, get home and then not open that one either. lol

I've done that too! You crack me up. Is your chainsaw blade straight or curved?
