    This is one of a FEW versions being released.

    Michael Lau is a great vinyl toy maker and artist. It’s his representation of it. Doesn’t mean it has to mirror the character in the film down to every last detail.

    I love it!

    I am just so upset with this. Are you kidding me..

    This guy didn’t even see the Godfather.

    This is complete shit.

    Nothing about this is an accurate representation. Terrible execution.

    I’m an Italian and love The Godfather. I also love this figure. Michael Lau did everything right on this.

    “I live my life, I don’t apologize to take care of my family. And I refused to be a fool dancing on the strings held by all of those big shots. That’s my life, I don’t apologize for that.”
