1/6 ALIENS Newt!

[Migwit]

I am very happy to have stayed with the rooted hair, that teaser pic is awesome!!

 

[pjam]

Looks like I'm glad I stuck with faux hair. I like it, alot!

Is this the new hair that will be on all the forthcoming figures?

Yes, even migwit's, which was already done will have the new hair.

Let's go Shawn, post up them new pics, baby.

Okay, this is for our Newt girl Migwit... had a few minutes before din din.

Now, don't get all crazy, this is MY Unpainted Newt. Look at the Hair -- the hair and use your imagination. Also, the hair color tint here looks reddish/strawberry blonde, it isn't. It is different shades of blonde. Okay?

Okay... Shawn will chime in soon I'm sure...

Sculpt Profile looks good here...

I'll prolly ask Les to dirty it up some... and keep in mind it's all futzable.

Looks great to me. More realistic now.

i have to say, this version of the rooted looks much better than the previous. another thing to consider is the longevity of rooted. i think sculpted will be here for a longer time than rooted. so if i ever have kids and grandkids, newt will be generational. can't wait for newt!!!

Yeah, first thing I thought of seeing this pic is imagining her riding piggyback on Ripley, it's gonna look damn cool. Realistic..

Shawn, can we see some pictures of the finished Pjam figure? Painted or not, it would be great to see some nice, large, clear, well-lit )) pictures like you did with your Batman.

Mine has already been shipped to Les, WG.

Maybe Shawn can take some pics of Migwit's.

OK, pjam, thanks for creating "Newt envy" in me!!! I think that looks amazing and I'm totally stoked to see mine!!! Shawn's putting a Crow together for me as well, so I'll be getting them when they're both ready, but boy am I ready!!!!

You will soon be a happy girl I'm sure. That Crow is insane! New jacket too so your patience is being rewarded with even better figures.

OK, just sent out some PM's....

I've got half-finished Batman and Crows all over the place and will have those two commission runs tied up next week.
At that time, Newt can be my whole focus so I've called in the rest of the payments. I'm going to do these all in one big run, with the goal to have them ALL finished and ready to roll at the end of August. I've already started making/building up the inventory of parts and wardrobe for this.
I had hoped to have a few shipped, but I've been nervously watching opinions of the hair fly back and forth like a tennis match! I want to have that settled before I move into casting heads/wigs and making hair (yes, I actually have to make the real hair for these!).

Can everyone who has paid so far send me your choice via email to [email protected] Title it NEWT HAIR and please include you board name. If you're one of the people I just PM'ed, put the info (also your board name) in the Paypal notes.

Another thought.... how many would be up for having both hair types (two seperate heads) for a few bucks extra? Always nice to have display options.

Oh by the way..... MIGWIT.... you'll love your Crow! I've got a new balljointed head that mounts to a seamless neck and he'll have this new hair type, as well. I love the new neck. It's the same sculpt, just modified to work this way. Doesn't work for everything, but it's awesome with long hair that can hide the joint. It's what I did with all the Michael Myers, Jack Sparrow, Lurtz and Newt figures. And with the Crow, it makes it a heck of a lot easier to get the coat on and off when you can easily pop the head off.

I suppose it would depend on how much more the additional head was and how easy swapping them might be.

 

[SovereignStudio]

It's a rubber cup inside the head that pops right onto a balljoint at the end of the neck. Super-easy to switch out.

 

[Migwit]

Shawn, you have made me a happy lady and I'm doing the banana happy dance!!! I can't WAIT to see Crow and Newt!!!! Woot!!!

 

[Wor-Gar]

Shawn, do you have FINAL PICS of Newt with her groovy new hair and the whole outfit plus Casey?

I'd love to see some shots of the whole little girl, like you did with your Batman. Maybe different poses, etc.

You did take some before you shipped Pjam's out, right?

 

[pjam]

Haven't all you guys seen these pics? So imagine them with the hair upgrade...

Sculpt Profile looks good here...

Imagine? I'd like to see you say that with an HT Batman figure that arrives with no pics.

Paul, please imagine what the Joker will look like with a new improved headsculpt.

I'm a picture, whore. I need pics.

 

[tigerfeet]

I have gone the two heads route as they both looked excellent and gives me maximum choice.... I have a spot just ready and waiting for her in my collection...

 

[BuGz]

Great custom figure!! I like the head sculpt!

Yeah I know. I was just trying to provide some visual aids.

I like this new shot the best. Sculpt looks really good with the new hair

Does anyone know if a secret Newt head thread exists here?

And if so it it another WST Ada Chan project?

Just curious... Thanks.
