Boss Fight Studio are a small toy company, mostly made up of ex-Hasbro folks who worked on lines like GI Joe and Transformers. While they still do licensed work for big companies, its Boss Fightâs design for original action figures that look neat.
Despite not having a universe or face to reveal (yet), the company has shown off a prototype of their figure design, and I love it. When it comes to figures, at least small-scale ones like this (not the huge, elaborate ones like Hot Toys), thereâs normally a trade-off to be made.

You either get a decent replica of a person/character with limited posability, or you get a flexible figure that looks like a caricature. There are some exceptions to this, mostly from Japanese lines like Figma, but theyâve got the safety of dealing mostly with cartoon/game characters, not real humans.

In short, he looks like Square Enixâs Play Arts line, only less deformed and freaky-looking.
This prototype figure is called the âSpartanâ, and it looks like heâs eventually going to get some armour and clothing to go with all those muscles.
