    Dam Toys Godfather Don Vito Golden Years version

    Got mine from KG hobby this week. I’m in New York. Anyone who wants this from me can take it off my hands for the same cost as I paid at KG plus shipping to where you are at. I took it out of the box to look at it briefly but that’s it, I’m one of the biggest godfather fans I know and I just...

    Stallone line - First Blood Rambo released

    The artists involved in designing the figure are all great people and great artists Odell has been around the hobby forever what happened regarding Kaustic and sly and nick is what it is and at the end of the day a good business manager is going to what could have ended ugly for everyone...

    Big Chief Studios James Bond Series

    Yup don’t get me wrong as a Bond fan I love that those two were made. Baron especially. Where it gets problematic for me is that they exist where more prominent characters don’t… and I think that the good intention of Big Chief needs a bit of a revamp. It seems like they sort of are doing that...

    ThreeZero Game of Thrones!

    Hey folks! FlyandFight, thanks for the kind words as always! You’re right I’ve been sort of quiet for a little while now maybe will be a bit longer maybe not, we will see life has been different for me this past year, but I do feel like I have a major backlog of figures that I need to work on...

    Big Chief Studios James Bond Series

    Yeah... I'm happy with what we got. I assume that we will get Dr No this year. Anything after that is anyone's guess. I don't think this is all BC's fault much might have to do with the licensers... There's a lot of Craig stuff out there from the 15 years of the hobby developing into what it is...

    DAMTOYS-The Godfather 1972 - 1/6th (Vito Corleone Formal Version) Collectible Figure

    Considering I get paid to do this professionally by these collectible companies, and I'm assuming you don't I would't worry to much about that if I were you.

    1/6 Hot Toys - MMS576 - Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse - Spider-Gwen

    if they sold better they maybe would have got to Peter B but I think the two stand alone without. I was more a 90s spiderman fan so spider verse’s novelty is really in these two characters for me, I’ve got lots of regular Peter spiderman figures to satisfy me. Though it would be cool if they...

    DAMTOYS-The Godfather 1972 - 1/6th (Vito Corleone Formal Version) Collectible Figure

    From what I can see from the pics the sculpt is not so great (regular version) additional version is passable but inferior to hot toys. Not the worst I’ve seen but I don’t see a high end head there at all but I wonder what it would look like with a repaint. One thing I can say with full...

    1/6 Hot Toys - MMS576 - Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse - Spider-Gwen

    Putting it on a tB league makes for a pretty cool custom spider Gwen but she’s way way too thicc to pass off as something accurate to the movie. fortunately as mentioned I think Gwen is by far the most innovative and articulated spiderman related hot toy figure ever. There’s a couple extra...

    BEST SIXTH SCALE FIGURES 2021

    It’s a pretty broad category I don’t think customs or statues apply to the topic to make a fair comparison. Third pary maybe from mass releases what stands out to me are hot toys spider Gwen soosoo toys green goblin Exo 6 Data Hot toys endgame cap Sideshow leather face Three zero Jamie...

    EXO-6 Star Trek "First Contact" figures

    This is an excellent analogy on how to approach that question! In my point of view, Unfortunately it also has a tendency to look caked on like a makeup foundation would because you’re trying to make something look brighter it’s naturally going to require an opaque base layer. the same logic...

    EXO-6 Star Trek "First Contact" figures

    Not to speak for DaveJames but generally speaking if a skin tone is too dark it’s almost impossible to lighten it up. If it’s just a bit too warm but the overall lightness is correct. a trick that I’ve used in the past that actually works is to give it a cool filter of sorts by airbrushing a...

    EXO-6 Star Trek "First Contact" figures

    thank you for the kind comments I really appreciate it! I still give a lot of credit to this (“that”) sculpt as a great base to work with but it’s pretty incredible what paint can do to transform a sculpt. As nanjin mentioned the time it takes for custom sculpts might eat into the profit a...

    EXO-6 Star Trek "First Contact" figures

    it may be selective characters for TOS and TNG QMX as mirror mirror is still TOS nanjin and QMX showed a lot of prototypes I can only assume QMX has some sort of rights to which delays Exo from picking them up… unfortunately that includes most of the TNg crew and the Kahn Kirk and Spock. uhura...

    EXO-6 Star Trek "First Contact" figures

    Been awhile since I did this but I wanted to share. I made no bones about how strongly I dislike the Exo 6 FC Picard sculpt so I repainted my QMX TNG to age him out a bit. So happy with this now I think I also took off the odd fat suit on his upper body also.

    AUGTOYS - 1/6 Dune Action Figures (Licensed)

    I’m happy about these. Too many companies official and third party completely dropped the ball on this incredibly figure worthy property. While I wish it wasn’t a first time company getting the license from what I see there js enough to work with the outfits look good, I feel Paul’s overcoat...

    AUGTOYS - 1/6 Dune Action Figures (Licensed)

    I loved the film so I want figures from it. I would like Paul in the desert wraps/ Fremin sand suit. maybe lady Jessica and the Duke. but if part 2 doesn’t get made I’d have a hard time wanting guys like the Baron or Bautista’s character etc because they didn’t do much as for the company...

    BLACK 8 STUDIO Snatch BK-001 1/6 Scale Figure - Brad Pitt

    100% exactly. also people should know the photos shown here are if the real work that these ******** stole from so if you think you’re getting something that looks that good and won’t be total crap in the end, think again.

    EXO-6 Star Trek "First Contact" figures

    I think nanjin is right and everyone has a specific sense of likeness which is why it’s hard to agree. I’m really surprised how many do like the head more then the TNG one. It could be my subjective opinion which is definitely only one way to look at things. I’ve lent my services...
