I find very little similarities between the original cartoons and the Classics designs. Don't get me wrong, I do see some similarites, but not enough to disclude IDW as the source for inspiration.

He was always a big guy, so I'm with you on this one. The Classics lines were always quite limited with what they could do, though, so I can appreciate it for what it is.
