When I saw the pictures of the Movie Masters Harvey Dent figure online, I immediately thought he looked like Conan O'Brien. Then, when I saw the figure in person (my Aunt and Uncle brought it over from the good ole USA) the chance was too much to pass up. Repaint of the hair and skin, and here he is.

However, when Leno usurped Conan's throne just seven months after he'd first started hosting the show, it was hard not to feel bad for Conan. This is for you, and here's to many happy years over at TBS.
