This company offers amazing quality sculptures. But the Elvis versions always seem to miss that special "Elvis touch". There are many simularities with Elvis, but nothing is exactly right.
Same with their previous design:

And this one is just plain bad:

Nice effort, but still no Elvis:

I have the 68 comeback one.....bought for me as a present. Its very nice....but i agree Albert...its still not quite right....though better than some i have seen in the past.
Would i have bought one ? Probably not :lol:
McFarlane probably use Elvis impersonator as the model...
:D
The thing that jumps out at me as being the most inaccurate about this latest one is the fit of the suit--it's way too tight!
The detail is fantastic for sure, but you guys are right about them still lacking a certain "Elvisness".
I have seen something on tv on how the make dolls like this one.
they said doing a mans face is very hard to do, but doing a woman
face is much easy to do.
but to me they like hard anyway to do, but anyway i have that 68 at lay-away at wal-mart but i got the big one, and the vegas one to.
and the 56 one i got it for christmas and its still in the box. :D
and i think its going to be in there tell i fine room for them, so i can show them off to people. :D
Now we're talkin' TACKY .....
the doormat is step too far ! (n)

They look great, not really like EP, but they are beautifully made, but I would never ever buy a statue, its just absolutely not my thing..... :blush:
It looks nice, but would not buy a statue either, because there is something Elvisie missing. It hasn't got a voice or a soul.................. ;) I only want the real thing, well that is not possible, I know I know, so I rather stick to the music.
