Wow, I would have loved one of those like 20 years ago.
The body is quite lousy, but the hair and face look pretty good.
Nice to know it's around though...

I'll get it for sure... better a Jareth now than never! :smile:

Sure, would prefer a statue or different clothing, but hey be happy they actually make LABYRINTH collectibles.

So what if it's "official"? It totally sucks! I can't believe they got a licence to make something so crappy.:stick_out_tongue:

Feel free to make a better one... I'll buy it!

I have to say this is still the best Jareth face sculpt I've seen. I remeber seeing a lot of unofficial Jareth dolls, but none had a good face sculpt.

Well, it's not so much the face that disturbs. It's that it looks like they got some stock body to stick it on to. It's not proportioned right. The pattern on the tights is absurd. The pendant is looking more like a choker.
I mean, really, I've waited 20 years for this?

Now if we take the official head, rip it off and put it on some unofficial dolls that had better bodies.... The people who redo Ken dolls did a better job.
