Medusa isn't the best MIMP has to offer, but her sculpt is very faithful to common depictions, her sculpt is nicely detailed, and there's no goofiness as could be seen with some other humanoids such as Vampire or... anything Series 4, honestly. She easily trounces the hare.

I just don't like the proportions of the SD Battle Beasts, so I can't imagine I'll vote for any of them. The Medusa has a cool gesture and a Clash of the Titans look and feel. It's no contest for me: Medusa for the win!

I've said it before, I'll say it again – I don't like the SDBB's. I understand their appeal and why people could like them, but they do nothing for me.

Medusa gets my vote easily here, and could easily get my vote again later. The proportions are nice, the detail is good, it has an interesting (but playable) pose, and it even seems feminine. I've always thought this figure felt fairly delicate, but not cheap. Some of the other MIMP are pretty substantial, so it would be easy to be disappointed by this smaller figure – it just doesn't happen. Unlike the MUSCLE #33, that figure feels like a rip-off.

My vote is for Medusa.

Hmmmm, found this quite tough - i actually like the look of the SDBB and yet i am not a great fan of the pencil top impersonators.

I voted for Medusa in the end. I think the early MIMP captured some of the monsters quite well compared to the later series, Medusa has quite a cool head of snakes at first glance it just looks like a 70s disco afro... plus she has the nicest rack i have ever seen on a LRG (the G in this case stands for Gal) and she is defianetly the sexiest MIMP in town. Don't pretend you wouldnt guys ;)

Oh come on ! I *really* like Hare Razing Rabbit ...the non deformed version. This BBSD version is a mockery of that fine sculpt (purposely lol) which i cannot appreciate. Its like putting a Enzo car kit on a smart car - a travesty. Its like the BEFORE shot of Hare Razing Rabbit taken by the fine folks at Jenny Craig.

The MIMP sculpt wins my vote but not just by default believe it or not. The color accents the details well. The sculpt is flowing and clean and is actually pretty nice. Medusa definitely has a classic feminine build which is a plus in my book.

Divide & conquer works because of attachments people make to push-button issues, individual "leaders," parties, clans, tribes, policies, or agendas, leaving them open to manipulation.

Medusa. She probably ushered a lot of childhood collectors into manhood.

With that said, my favorite LRG Medusa so far is the Medusa Archer from D&D Miniatures, Night Below set. There's another one coming in May, though.

I'd like to point out that that image of medusa isn't the actual medusa released, the real one has a much less revealing neckline and much less prominent boobs.

My vote is for the bunny due to those jerks censoring something that didn't need censoring.

Edit; I have that night below medusa - I guess it's kinda cool, but it's nothing on some of the other figures in the line.
