It's really nice overall, but there's something... off... about his upper lip. I can't quite put my finger on it. Could be the teeth.

I want it but I refuse to pay more for the new head than I will for Kup at retail.

But the Cygar makes the head. Without it he could just be enthusiastically eating a sandwich.

That looks really good!

I'm not a big Kup fan, so something that gives him a bit more personality gets my vote. Also, I think it also helps that the pictures are some of the best we've seen of the upcoming figure.

I like the head, but it'll have to be pretty cheap, and match the colours very well, for me to bother. Or come with lots of extras.

Does anyone else think it's weird that the first we saw of this were two colored prototypes and when they put it on the body, it's blank plastic?

Little out of order, right?

Thanks to Seibertron.com member El Duque for letting us know that third party toymaker iGear Toys has updated their Facebook page with new pictures of the replacement head they're creating for the upcoming Hasbro Generations and Takara Tomy United Kup figure (aka Sergeant Kup). This head, which appears to be a quick swap with the production version, features a more comic-styled look to it including his signature "cygar". Some would also argue that it better captures the gruff nature and battle worn look of the elder Autobot warrior. No word yet on when this accessory will be released or whether it will be an exclusive on the iGear online store or available from our sponsors. When we know more about this product, we'll let you know!

Nice! If this isn't too expensive, is colored accurately for the US release, and is available at a sponsor site, I'll definitely get it.

K Konah Kuperson lol. i like it but it makes me think of Logan/Wolverine rather than Kup from the movie and season 3. if im unhappy with kups standard head in hand then maybe ill pull the trigger.

Not so thrilled about it being a "yelly" face, but I can't argue with the quality of the sculpt. A vast Improvement over the Hasbro one. As long as it's not too pricey and can be bought at BBTS, I'm totally sold =P~
