Thanks for posting Kam! It's always nice to see side by side comparisons . I would like to pick up the dog if possible if it is sold separately on ebay.

Sculpts are on ebay now. Bought the two versions to use with my Premier Toys one.

I just bit the bullet as well. Thanks for the heads up...

Damn the head look huge.
Could someone show how it looks on a ttm20?
Thanks

Picked up the Dark Toys sculpt to go with my Premier Gladiator Warrior figure. Any suggestions for a better body to use?

I can't believe there's still no video reviews and no thorough pictures on this.

I think I want to pick this up but the silence on this one makes me nervous.

I just got head sculpt on ebay for my present toys one.

Sadly, I do not speak real French... so I'm not sure if he likes it...

I got mine in the other day and waited a few days to open it out of sheer dread. All things considered, the figure on the whole is not bad. Paint on the hands is the worst I have ever seen. Was disappointed the leg brace was plastic, then I put some nuln oil on it and it looks great.

Yeah, he's gonna need a lot of modding, and modding I am not looking forward to doing. Sometimes modding a figure (like Decard) is fun because of the pursuit. This one, I just wanted him perfect out of the box, and we all know he is not.

So is he worth it? At the end of the day?

Love to see any pictures too.

From memory I think even the original leg brace on the Cult King Road Fighter figure (which the Dark Toys is based on) was resin or plastic, I can't remember which.

Wor, I would call this Max an adequate foundation on which to build a much more acceptable figure for this character

Put mine on a Tony stark body, weathered everything and used some Gundam real touch markers to tint the fingers a nicer color, just gotta get the head repainted now imo this is the best max of the 3

All except for the bulky left sleeve, which is unbelievably something Premier actually did better.

Looks great there, apart from the body/head skin tones not matching. What did you use to weather the leather?

That I agree on, I guess its what would you rather a crap figure with a nice sleeve or a better figure with a crap sleeve I'll take the crap sleeve any day

Thanks mate I dry brushed everything lightly with this, made sure I hit the edges abit extra

then for the parts that I wanted to look sort of dirty/dusty I dry brushed this on the ends of the boots, knees, zippers etc

took maybe an hour and a half, that includes doing everything so not that long really

 

[cpoll36]

Great job with the weathering K.bowen, especially on the knee pad and boots, it looks really natural!

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yeah, your Max really stands out now with all that weathering and fixes.

Is the Stark body larger than the body supplied?

Thanks mate appreciate it
