    the capsule looks really polygonal and has lots of lines from the 3d printing process, just because it looks smooth in your 3d program doesn't mean it will be smooth when its printed. I always turn smoothing off (view it faceted) to see how it will really look printed, it looks like the round parts need a lot more subdivisions.

    Have to agree....and the detail on the figure is like an early plastic 1/72 mould....long way to go in terms of modern quality....

    I don't care much for the capsule, but if the Space Commando figure was scaled up to 1/35, 1/32, 1/24, 1/20, or 1/16 scale and had more detailed parts and a rifle, I'd be way more interested. The design of the Commando looks pretty cool. Unfortunately, it's only armed with a knife.

    The concept is also kind of strange. Was the Commando, who seems like he couldn't get out of the capsule, cutting through the glass with the knife, hence no clear curved plastic over the glass and hence no rifle because the Commando was sleeping inside the capsule?

    I think there is too much capsule, and it overpowers the figure.

    Scale up the commando of space, give the options for hands holding alternate choices (knife, rifle, open hand) and reduce the size of the background plant and equipment.
    The current design of the pod unit seems to me more like a heavy, fixed unit, rather than a detachable, drop away unit.

    Holds promise though, beyond the tabletop!!

    Would like the figure separate. Also not 25$ as stated in post.
