And if Moe is really going through with at least 3 outfits, it seems those of us getting more than one could really benefit from having another option apart from Rainman (as great as it is). At least in my case, I wouldn't want figures of the same character with 3 outfits and the same sculpt on each one.
The only problem with Laney's is that it is very scene specific, and I'm not sure we'll get anyone to do that outfit at all. As such, I wonder about how popular it would be. I'll put it in a poll though and we'll see. I'll let people take multiple votes in the poll.
And I do hope folks take advantage of this opportunity to have some input into what Rocco may do. It isn't often boardies have this chance with such a talented sculptor to do a fairly niche character without paying a small fortune to commission it. No up-front commitments required here, just your thoughts and time to post. The Dude deserves it
ray:ray:
Would be great, though the outfit might need to be custom made. And of course, there's this guy:There is already a Dude out there - HOW ABOUT A DECENT WALTER to go with the Dude????

I really disagree. Rainman's sculpt looks stern and focused, which really. . .is pretty un-Dude:
While I love the Rainman sculpt, I would like a Dude on the shelf that doesn't look like he's about to go into battle or make a decision on whether or not to send a man to the electric chair. That picture you post does not look like he's doing those things. The huge smiley look was from a dream sequence, and would be fitting for that outfit of course, but wouldn't fit anywhere else. It would probably only sell to a handful of folks who wanted that specific outfit (assuming Moe even makes it). If you get a less scene specific look, but one more representative of the Dude's personality, then it would work with multiple outfits and would have an appeal that the Rainman sculpt doesn't have.
