1/6 Premier Toys - PT-0006 The Martian Version 2 (Deluxe Edition)

[Bearded_Mayhem]

Got my invoice this morning, excited for this one.

Based on those Ebay pics, the figure looks pretty darn good. The head sculpt took a drop but perhaps it is the zoomed in pic that may be throwing it off?

Either way, in the helmet, it should be close enough to Damon. Really excited for this one.

Agreed. Can't wait either. I never had high expectations for the sculpt, but the suit is definitely workable.

Helmet does light up - with batteries being in his pack.

Wow - that actually looks very good, detail and build quality. Nice.
Head sculpt - eh ok, will probably look better behind the helmets visor. Still fairly good though.

 

[HAL9000.]

Definitely not bad for a third party figure. It's put my mind at rest regarding what we have to work with the suit and helmet - which are the hardest parts to make. They've missed a few bits here and there, the colours need tweaking, same with some of the straps, NASA logo etc, and add some weathering. Very excited to have it show up.

Suit looks nice. Sculpt is about what I expected. The eyes throw it off the most, as they are a little cross eyed. Interested to see how the other sculpt turned out.

Yeah the head probably needs a repaint, but I'm not seeing any drop in quality with the outfit thankfully. So feeling confident enough now to pay off my invoice.

 

[Wor-Gar]

PAID! Really excited! Those ebay photos look great.

That said, the suit is printed more than I had hoped -- like on the sleeves.

 

[Bearded_Mayhem]

Anyone seen any pics of the other headsculpt yet?

Seems like it might have the grey arm strip you mentioned. WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT?!

Also noticed the power connector.

Yeah, I know, was hoping it was more mixed media, you know... but still, all in all, he looks great from afar which is how I will be viewing him.

Regardless, I am the proud owner of one of these soon to be very rare figures.

 

[Antarion]

From The Martian? You got links, please?

I've got 3D files for my resin printer, when I get around to using them. Backpack and helmet.

No not from the MArtian. Just suits like that in general

It really seems like it might need replacing anyway. Supposed to look like this:

 

[Marine Boy]

Just paid my invoice, looking forward to getting this one. The Interstellar suit will look good next to it. I'm hoping the Prometheus ones will turn up eventually.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Would love an updated Nostromo spacesuit made of real material rather than the thick plastic ones we got from HT during their "experimental plastic" phase.

 

[FlyAndFight]

I would love a 2.0 version of the Dallas and Kane suits but this time include Lambert.

I've got a spare Nostromo figure which I got many years ago to do a custom Lambert. Probably my oldest figure project yet to see fruition.

I have a number of projects older than that. One was Mad Max, before the DT fig now. Barbossa was another. Now waiting to customize the Caspian Sea version. McClane's another... just unmotivated there. Have a Karl (Die Hard) sitting in pieces too.

I feel your pain. I just made a number of orders for loose parts for at least "3" different figure projects. I'll probably end up storing them alongside the other dozen projects, in the closet...

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yep. I just bought several parts from the Laughing Man part out so I could build a 2nd Nicholson Joker with the long coat... but the reality is, those parts will never motivate me to unearth that old HT Joker box that is buried deep under who-knows how many boxes.

 

[HAL9000.]

Same. I have a giant tub of parts with at least 20 figures in various states of kitbashing. I often forget what’s in there. I even have three joker figures: normal TDK, TDK nurse, TDK Ronald McDonald… WTF?
