Awesome, a name is just what I wanted! I am reading interviews with him as I type.
One thing that I appreciate about the minis is that they keep a consistent design across the series. Like all the Marvel figures fit in with the earlier and newer figures. Same for the Walking Dead, same for Disney, same for Horror, etc. I was really interested in how they conceptualize the figures and how that translates to the sculpting process, etc.
I don't if this is allowed, but I'm going to link to those interviews I was talking about in case anyone else was interested:

I'm also interested in making a custom mystery mini some day trying to imitate the same style. I don't know how, when, or who I'd make, but I'd like to in the future!
