The only time the term "headscan" bothers me is when someone's talking about one on a BCA or older TTL figure.

There needs to be a poll on what figure has the best head sculpt. I think WM 14 HBK and elite 30 Hawk are up there. I agree. Nasty Boy Sags and Basic 16 Taker are both great.

A scan of an image and a scan of a person in real life is still not the same thing Flashbacks - Headsculpt Current - Headscan (Some exceptions - like I doubt they've ever scanned Rock or Brock) I'm 100% sure that Rock and Brock were scanned...they had to have been. Every body signed to WWE is scanned in person. They are all scanned in the flesh for the WWE video game and Mattel figure line.

Bill stated in a ringside interview he snapped a photo straight off his TV screen for the Latest Brock screaming face scan & sent it straight too their sculptor, I'd imagine sculpting would create more detail & more realistic approach. As well as more costly for the budget id assume if it's an outside sculptor. No complaining at all, I'm happy with Mattel 100%. There is a difference in quality though "difference in quality" for better or worse?

Actually Gentle Giant Studios said in a magazine interview when disgussing either Jakks CS or Mattel Legends they do scans for old school younger versions and deceased wrestlers by scanning photographs showing different angles and sides of the head and face of the wrestlers. So the still do 3D scans first. I didn't know they could do that. That's actually really interesting they can create models just from images. Well, this can be locked then. I figured this thread was a bad idea. Not a bad idea. Its a conversation about something different instead of just bashing a figure or something. Good thread!!!

Still hit or miss in my eyes, I think Bill Trys to get us figures as quick as possible & with the scan's they're more likely to have errors compared 2 sculpts I'm assuming, but I think I'm more in favor of the scans, looking at Jericho & Rollins from then now forever Elite sting & many others

Just like how Mattel and 2k recreate legends that have passed away, I'm sure it's within their capability to create Lesnar and Rocky.

No doubt the majority of stars alive are sanned. But with the exception of certain people (as stated above) rock, brock and maybe austin... i could see them not being available to be scanned.

I've seen this topic pop up a couple of times over the years, and if you want to call them sculpts because it's correct in many cases, prepare to be bashed.

It doesn't bother me really. A scan or sculpt, I know what you're talking about, so I don't have a problem.
