After hearing the complaints that the critter was "too skinny", I decided to fire up a random ZP video and compare. Yeah, probably a little bit, but not as much as it looks when seen by itself. The big mistake is that the "slit" between the head and body should be level with the top of the arms... flippers... forelimbs.
But whatever. Maybe after the first batch sells out, they'll make a few tweaks. Either way I'll hold off buying one until I'm in a situation where it makes more sense to blow money on kitsch that has no practical or entertainment value. Namely, when I'm no longer living with the mother I criticize daily for doing just that.
EDIT: I just realized how much this character resembles a black The Cheat.
