You might want to give some thought to this little guy's future home. If he is to be displayed loving and alone on a plinth like a museum piece, keep on with your bad self. On the other hand, if space is at a premium then displaying this little piece of art in a more 'naturalistic' setting might be a better option. Placed on a bookshelf, between some books, peeking around some Blu-Rays, displayed in some way that echoes the creature's actions in the movie. If you choose this option then you might want to think about posing the outstretched hand to let him 'interact' with his environment, curling around the edge of a DVD case or pushing against a book cover.
