Does anyone know what this is?

Hi,

I visited a friend and got this. It was on the wall for far too many years while I found it and there is still some wall on it now...

Does anyone know what movie, TV show or comic this kit is supposed to be based on?

Thanks!
Michael

Well it looks to me like tha thing that Jim Carey was playing in a Christmas film. Can't remember it's name and u sure can be way off. Just a guess.

The Grinch?
More of a classic christmas story on the other side of the pond than it is in Europe.

Thanks guys for the input. I think we can rule that guess out actually. My friend has been in the hobby for a matter of decades and this little piece was on the wall for over a decade. Or two.

IDK, but some similarity in the sculpting;a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles character?

HI Michael

I think it's the Grinch for sure, he's been around in cartoon form since the 1960's when Dr. Suess did the original. It is a Christmas tradition in North America and I've watched it at least a hundred times over the past 40 years. Jim Carey's recent film was a remake of that classic. All this figure is missing is the green hair and his rather pointy head, and of course, "a heart that's three times too small". Anyway for what its worth, that's my 2 cents.

Cheers.

Hi Glenn, now that you expanded on it, I am totaly cinvinced. A rather nicely done face sculpt if it's supposed to follow a cartoon character...

But its not an exact representation of either the Dr. Seuss cartoon Grinch or the Jim Carey version.Could be an original idea or just an approximation based on memory of the Grinch.

Hi, I was going to do a mother in law joke. But I resisted.

It can also be used as Shrek with a few additions.
