Yakety Yak, I'm Talking Back, Hasbro!
I just noticed a small issue with the HasLab exclusive Yak Face figure that is arriving in 2019. As a vintage purist, I want my modern counterparts to be as accurate as possible. Don’t get me wrong, I thoroughly appreciated the updated image on the card back for Ponda Baba (Walrus Man), but I still want that “sketch-enhanced” version too. Look carefully at the HasLab mock-up figure of Yak Face, and then look at the original Kenner figure? Do you notice something different? (It’s NOT the figure.)
The reference stills are different! The original Kenner figure has his left hand pointing downward. The HasLab mockup has his left hand pointing upward. Hasbro, can you please raid the Kenner archives and find the original reference image so we can have as close to accurate the original figure most of could never buy as youngsters. I apologize for being too pedantic here, but I feel this is one exception where we need to be.
Yes, it’s possible that the mock-up isn’t a finalized version. But if it is, it needs a further edit!
