Good looking sculpt. Maybe 32mm would work for a tall Jungle Lord. It would be cool to see how he sizes up next to some other figures.

The whole 28mm/32mm thing can be so fuzzy at times.

As soon as he is in hand I will post him next to the Copplestone-sculpted Quatermain figure.

As somebody already said, he sure is ripped.

I'm put in mind of a certain Graham Norton screaming "Miles O'Keeffe!" on every episode of his chat show.

Copplestone's Quatermain is also quite huge, clearly over 30mm, the majority of Copplestone figures aren't that big. But like other posters said, he's supposed to be the lord of the Jungle, fighting gorrillas and such so I wouldn't mind him being taller than an average human. Nice figure, a bit too much of a body builder for my taste but nevertheless it's a lovely sculpt. I really would be interested to see what sort of "colossal hominoid" stuff you are going to create. I like the idea of having a pulp-ish Jungle range out there.

The colossal hominoids are a troop of kongs. Silverback, black back, females, young. I have one commissioned sculpt already completed. This project is the universe of Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzan meets the universe of Kong.

In my mind these have always been part of the same world, just in another part of the same jungle.

These Tarzan figures'll always be George to me.
