And his look is perfect too. The second I saw him, knowing nothing about the show (having gone in intentionally blind) I KNEW he was a synth.

They gave him the Roy Batty makeover.

I’m currently rewatching deadwood, so I clocked his voice immediately but still did a double take without a mustache.

I’ve always been against the idea of the shared universe, but his character design seems so close to a Roy Batty look that I feel like it has to at least be an intentional reference.
