Pretty decent head sculpt. Eyes are a bit off though and it needs puffier bags under the eyes. I think I would want this character in his civvies though.

 

[sabin23]

will there be other characters from the movie?

Emily Blunt, Josh Brolin, etc.

 

[Johnny Utah]

My first thought was please make Josh Brolin from it.

Flip flops included.

Unbelievable. I'm literally in the process of putting this version of Alejandro together via the custom route at the moment and now this is announced. Oh well, guess I won't be needing to spend any more time browsing through screensavers and 1/6 combat vests on 1/6 sites.

Actually, having studied Alejandro's tactical gear for the last couple of weeks the details are incredibly accurate, right down to the correct pockets on the combat trousers and knee and elbow pads. I'll definitely be picking this up! The HK MP5A3 is also on point to my knowledge. They've really done their research, bravo to Blackbox.

Love the character but the sculpt looks really bad.

I wasn’t able to find any reference but I’m assuming the boots are totally inaccurate. Seems BlackBox hasn’t made a new pair since their Blade Runner K figure, this is the third time they’ve used those Bates after K and (inaccurately) the NTTD Bond.

 

[cpoll36]

Yes, I agree, I think the Bates boots are from their K figure. Unfortunately I could find no images of the boots he wore in those scenes. These days the Propstore is an amazing refetence for details like that should the costume or outfit ever appear for sale. I guess any pair of black combat boots can be used in this instance.

I had to screenshot one scene where his back is turned and adjust the colour (it was too dark in the scene) in Photoshop to identify the weapon on his back. It was the MP5A3 (as far as I can tell) so they got that spot on plus the details on the rear of the vest.

I have the Jintoys sculpt ready to go so that should look awesome with this set.

 

[Rambler]

The two Sicario movies are some of my favs. However, this head sculpt is a miss. The eyes on this sculpt is what needs to be nailed.

 

[MwNN]

Has this gone up for pre-order anywhere?
I'm am looking forward to getting him.

 

[cpoll36]

I was wondering this too. I have emailed Blackbox to ask them. I was hoping it would be up for preorder by now. I hope it goes ahead, I'd love to have this figure. One of the best thrillers in recent years.

 

[MwNN]

I also have the Jintoys sculpt of Benicio and Josh.
I wish someone would do Emily too.
I asked Jintoys if they had plans to do her and they said no.

 

[cpoll36]

Yeah, I have the jintoys sculpt too. I'm impressed by this prototype and with the jin sculpt it should look amazing.

 

[MeatHookGekko]

will there be other characters from the movie?

Emily Blunt, Josh Brolin, etc.

Crazy as it sounds, maybe the best way to do the trio would be via the Dam Toys Gangster Kingdom line.

The struggle with Sicario 1 is you are basically making SWAT figures. Without elite level headsculpts, there's no real selling point. With Sicario 2, I think you could make a Del Toro in his Cartel disguise gear. Also Josh Brolin's character with all the tools for torture/waterboarding. I think you could make a two pack somewhat marketable with Brolin/Del Toro. I think a Blunt figure would be a shelf warmer. ( However Blunt from Edge Of Tomorrow would rock and would sell great IMHO)

There exists over 20 years of 1/6th military/law enforcement figures out there. There's enough parts to kitbash all three main figures as long as you have the heads, hence the headsculpts need to be a homerun.

 

[Mondragon]

So who will be using him to customize the Disney-story-group's only unique character worthy of "respect": Deejay! In his Imperial "POWER" uniform, collecting his bloodmoney.
Their most iconic symbol, of the absolute betrayal where they steered the franchise.
Apologies, momentary derail.


Alejandro, El Sicario - figure, accessories and detail, actually look great.

Though he could use a a pair of shades.

 

[cpoll36]

I think the tactical gear version of Alejandro is probably the more memorable from the first film but a well tailored suit would also be a selling point from the scene when Blunt first meets him.

 

[Mr.E]

Personally, that rumpled beige suit would be my preference, "I go where I'm sent..."

[RPTGB]

Hmm, I'm still seeing a bit of wise middle aged Asian guy in the expression. He still looks a bit cross eyed to me. This HS would really benefit from having moveable eyes as Benecio Del Toro has this very distinctive way of "acting with his eyes", lots of side eye glances and looking up under his furrowed brow

The side profile looks great but it's losing something as we come round to see the front and the face.

 

[abake]

Don't know about you guys, but I'd rather have Emily Blunt...
