Has a Anime vibe to it.  This Cthulhu is incredible looking!  The other pieces are equally haunting and beautiful.  I like the cut of the snake chaps jib.

Isn't he going to bite his own tentacles off every time he tries to close his mouth?  Awkward...

Love it!
Oh sure. Everybody's in favor of saving Hitler's brain, but when you put it in the body of a Great White Shark, ooh, suddenly you've gone too far

Papa Cthulhu's been hitting the gym!

Really imposing figure, and an interesting take on the sleepy dead guy.

Me likes. As said an interesting take on a well established icon.

I definitely agree, but I was completely impressed by the creativity and execution of this interpretation. (Maybe this is what the big guy looks like after he's burned off the stored fat from his, erm, extended hibernation.  :P )

That is one fantastic sculpt!!! That said, he's a little to 'buggy' and not nearly 'squiddy' enough for the big C (imho). Really cool concept for an alien menace thou...

A very pretty sculpt, though my preferences also lean towards the more classic vision of Cthulhu.  This one looks almost a bit like a cross between a Predator and a Mind Flayer.  Beautiful execution, but I think I'll stay with my obese squatting vision of Cthulhu.

Makes a cool monster....just not ol' Pulp Head Himself.

I'm not a huge Cthulhu fan (played the rpg a few times) but I really like this, seems a bit more capable of taking someones head off  :D
