I didn't get a chance to ask him, what was Bob's reaction when he saw this?

He loved it :) he was most impressed that the sculpting was done by hand and 1:1 unlike the original Hasbro line which was 2:1

2:1? Scaled down?

Yep, I think most action figures are sculpted at 2:1, a "2-up" and then scaled down. Nowadays it's all done with laser scanners but God knows how Palitoy did it.
