Looks like OG head sculpt to me, hope I am wrong and it's something new

I think he's wearing a little red riding hood cape and probably has a goatee like robinhood and pointy shoes like the Iron Sheik.  And that thing he's holding isn't a bow, but in actuality a cat on a stick that he's deworming.  That's my absolute best guess.  

Take out the pointy shoes and he looks like Thor.

By the power of Mjolnir!

Oh this I can't wait to see!

Actually I'm hoping for the OG sculpt (perfect simplicity & great from all angles) as I'm not a fan of any of the other TK heads (not counting Sun & Moon) - and would be pretty happy with a simple Yama/Robin Hood-esque goatee.

My 2 cents...

Glad to be wrong, need less blur ^^.

OG isn't bad, it's just that we have so many around already and can swap one on in a snap...

True. Just don't want to have to do any more (personal) fixes on my TKs.

needs a new head, been waiting on this one for a while. needs be something special me thinks

Argh, me thinks as well a new noggin is due for sure.   Perhaps one with an eye patch, matey.  

The REAL question is whether he still has the baby or not.

The original depiction in paint and snippets of info that was shared by Ash a number of years ago was that the baby was important to his story. Of course that was ages ago, so his story could have been completely changed by now.

I'm not seeing the baby in the blurry. Maybe he's there.

Yeah the baby! That would be a nice addition. And, sorry, but back to the head. TKs are clones, they should be consistent and always have the same head/face. Hair whatever - face same. As I said before, other than Sun & Moon (nice evolution) any/all other TK heads have been disconnected almost sloppy sculpts - long chins, lopsided ears, homely faces. The OG's androgynous elegance is missing. Of course it's just my fetish (and a nagging one at that) and I'm not trying to sell anyone on it, but for me (as it's titled "the last TK") it would seem appropriate to use the OG face and adorn it with whatever hair/headgear the design dictates.


...3 cents... and done.

Either way lets just hope it looks good. Been a dry year.

Forgot how much red there was on him. I'm sure that there will be a baby included, that is part of the figure and his story after all. I hope things haven't changed that much over the past few years.

A baby TK I hope?
donno the lore but are TK "born" adult-size as they are now?

I wasn't expecting the modern Bow, I thought it would have been like an older classic Bow like in the painting (Robin Hood-ish).
Still cool though.

i think if this came out way back it would have benefited from the simpler design look of early TK's opposed to what now seem like alot of over designed and busy looks. IMO

but its Ashleys character so it will be as he wants it, i respect that. enjoy TK fiends!

I apologize if this is off topic guys but who or which TK were the EDO's modeled after?

As far as the Archer TK he certainly should have a new head or at least a different hairstyle, the og head is getting a little over-used.... Not that the og heads are badly designed just something new is always refreshing.

Clones. Just saying.
I can't help feeling burned out on TKs all the time. I want OTHER Popbot characters. Not Meta Ash and Meta Ninja figs, but real characters from the story. Or hell, even more story for that matter. How long's it been since Pop8 came out?

Always glad to see a new toy, and I have no problem with more TKs, but really I want to see the world of Popbot expanded, not just the ranks of TKs, of whch I dare say we have a LOT of examples of.

^^
Yes.  Popbot has (as far as the toys go) split off into 'Tomorrow Kings' and 'Popbot'. One leaving the other kind of in the dust. It's a bit of a shame as the world that is Popbot is so varied and rich with a craziness of characters. But obviously... Folks buy TK$.

TK's are worse than Isobelle and friends!

I don't agree with this statement and never shall...

Why can't we all just get along?
