Wildstorm always varied its character and costume designs a lot, often to the extent of parodying how other comics were doing it, but elements are fairly bang-on to some of the images (i.e. colour palette is relatively consistent as black & white but mostly he's wearing a white t-shirt rather than shirt, etc).

Not really that fussed about being super-accurate with customs at the best of times, but it does make it easier and fun when the source material gives artists opportunity to put a personal spin on things without it breaking the flow (e.g. characters having a completely different look in another comic that's running at the same time, or really inconsistent between scenes/issues, or with some IDW TF titles I seem to recall that characters weren't even consistent about alt modes or faces let alone more minor details).

Came across a couple of options for reasonably priced mummy figures. NECA have done a retro card glow-in-the-dark version of their Karloff without extra accessories, and the Bride of Frankenstein that's just come out looks decent with the face covering if you wipe the metallic paint off (then they look like stitches rather than metal staples). Just be careful as the head is moulded out of skin colour plastic, although a little bit on the head area isn't going to matter as it looks like exposed bone.

Wasn't going to sample the NeMA Fiendish Feet (they're mini figures based on the 80s St Ivel yoghurt pots) but saw a Pharoah Nuff that already had a case, and that's also on an Egypt theme...
