I'd love to see you two collaborate again...but on what? LOL

Functional Admiral Ackbar head. :love

But seriously, Phil, this is amazing. Get that light silked and put a correction gel on it and he'll be virtually indistinguishable from the original puppet on the Elstree set.

Beautiful, incredible work. Any updates on a functional puppet version? Please, please, please say the possibility is still on the table.

I can't wait to show you all the passive version of Yoda I'm surrently working on.. I'm using the skin and skull so we'll get a far more expression in a fully poseable head.

This Yoda is amazing beyong belief.

Is not perfect, its just YODA itself.

I REALLY hope I dont start anything here..I LOVE THIS YODA TO DEATH..just finally figured out what bothered me, the hair on it. I noticed that the original's hair is a little more spaced out or something..PLEASE dont take this as a insult, just think the sculpt and such are amazing. Just comparing the hair photos, I think that'll amke even more of a difference.

Since this Yoda was just recently 'cloned' he needs to grow a little more hair in certain places . . . depending on your point of view :lol

Man you killed this. Its funny, every time a new life size yoda is released I feel like the did the best they could with it. You have raised the bar and made the Ultimate Yoda IMO. Youve taken this sculpt to a whole other level. And I think what you said is spot on. In ESB he looks different at different points. In this pic you captured him perfectly when he says "You will be...you WILL BE!" to Luke in regards to being afraid. My hat is off to you, and I cant wait to add this little guy to my collection
