From CHUD, I wasn't able to keep up with all the news that came out of Comic Con, but I don't think any of the Avatar toy images included pictures of the Na'vi figures. The Na'vi are the alien species that play the part of the Native Americans in James Cameron's big huge 3D Dances With Wolves in space.
Having seen the 24 minutes of footage I can say that this figure, which is from a (supposedly) McFarlane toy line (although board member Abbott & Prospero alerts us that as far as he knows only Mattel has the Avatar license), is a fairly accurate representation of what the aliens look like. This is them. And this, in particular, the avatar of Jake Sully, played by Sam Worthington.
The image on the shield looks, to my eyes, to be the exact image of the character from the movie. That's how he looks in the film.

Really? I thought they'd look more, you know... alien. It's a blue guy.
Am I missing something?
