Once again I realize im the opposite of everyone on earth. I love the 2 pack scan, The EG scan to me is terrible.

No I'm not comparing it to the EG figure which is far and away the better of the two. I was just saying the head looks better on the EG Basic body. I think the Elite ab crunch makes the 2-Pack scan even worse. No matter what they missed the mark on the sculpt. I mean I know what they were going for as I seen many pics of Piper with that goofy smile...It's just that they totally missed the mark with the teeth/mouth.

my only problem with the tag one is the paint. The sculpt is fine and if the paint were cleaned up it would look much better.

You're right it does look better on the basic body.

The Elite body is terrible and I agree that in theory the 2 pack head looks better on the EG body, specifically because of the hair. However, the teeth are terrible on all of the ones I have seen up close. They don't seem to be painted all of the way and they stick out too much. Its sort of half and half for me. Had they just stuck the 2 pack hair sculpt on the EG figure it would have been perfect imo.

With literally five minutes spent repainting the mouth, it looks very good. It's a good sculpt that is poorly painted. I do agree that the head sculpt on the EG Piper is the better of the two, though. |

I'm sorry but with the quality we expect from Mattel. Both of these heads arn't good enough. Both of them dont even look like Piper.
The Legends line is full of great headsculpts and Piper just lets it down....

The problem with the 2-Pack is there are too much teeth. The profiles look great, but from straight on he looks like he has horse teeth. I know the look they were going for but it should have been less toothy.

Those teeth are pretty goofy, but it perectly reminds me of a smiling Hot Rod. Cool figure..

I am not a fan of the scan for the 2 pack anyway, but then the fact that they didn't paint it correctly, makes it even worse. Another thing that I really don't like with the 2 pack Piper, is the fact that they didn't give him a shirt. I think with a shirt, it would have looked a lot better.
