The 75mm samurai looks to be an excellent piece what with the usual incredible paint job from DR. I have already placed an order for one.

I like the Samurai but there's something "off" about the Katana

 

[Pepperpot]

The samurai looks great, but you are right about the katana. The width of the blade looks off compared with the length of the blade. It does not look as delicate and elegant as I would expect it to be. Maybe it is just the angle of the pictures.
I really like the idea of a cowboy/ bounty hunter as a bust, so I was trying to figure out what turns me off. It is the eyes that do not work for me. They are just set too far apart which makes the face look weird.

Yes it looks more like a cutlass

I would love to see just an undercoated pic of the Bounty Killer as I too think the face looks off, but it maybe the painting of it, too contrasty that hides/distorts the details. The rest of it is pretty awesome

The bust is a very risky move. The good kind. To begin with, what race is he? That is healthily non-mainstream.

The face aside, everything else is downright classic. Thsi piece is one to behold.

I don't know if Pegaso have had the bounty hunter smoothed out? But it doesn't look like the original sculpt.
As for the Samurai, yawn.

In my opinion the bounty killer is obviously inspired on Lieutenant Blueberry, a comic book hero well-known in Belgium and France, sketched by the talented but recently deceased French artist Jean Moebius Giraud.

I remember being hooked on Blueberry's adventures when I was a younster en still have the complete series stocked on my attic. Must get them out again sometime soon...

The painting of the bust seems to be a bit stylised, is it like the comic illustration? The sculpting looks spot on.

Pegaso outdoes itself again with lack of ideas.
Too bad, they were once the leaders.

The Samurai is one of many and the bust, I would take not even sure if I would getmore money.

Not at all. I'm a great fan of the comic and to be honest I didn't recognize it in the bust at the first sight ... but now that Joahn said it, I think it obvious with the broken nose. But the painting do not make honour to the work of Giroud (too stylised).

Here one page of the comic :http://www.sceneario.com/Planche_bd_2031_BLUEBERRY.jpg

I must admit ..I'm not keen on the bust!

 

[Frank Kelle]

Sorry Pegaso - I have to agree to the others: the "Bounty Killer" does not "speak" to me - I get no connection. I really do not know, if it is the painting - i am afraid, it is the bust itself. He looks like a comic, like a persiflage, like a "boy" - not like a killer.

 

[Gellso]

Yeuch! for the cowboy. It didn't help putting it against the Samurai, which looks magnificent.
