1/6 Super Duck Sailor (Popeye) with TYSToys head

[AlanJG1]

I received my Super Duck Popeye a couple of weeks ago and put the TYSToys head with it and had to share. I was surprised I couldn't find a thread for this.

For a quick review, the tailoring on the Super Duck outfit is fantastic. The main issue is that his right leg is longer than his left leg.
I would probably have to disrobe him to figure out how something like that could happen and I am not ready to do that yet. If you bend his longer leg he can still stand and it is not noticeable. I have seen the TYSToys Popeye head around for a while but it seems like the supply has now dried up. I think I bought the last one from Aliexpress. The Super Duck head is okay but I preper this one.

I grew up watching Popeye cartoons and love the Mezco version so this was a must for me.

That looks excellent.

Cool, wish I can find the head now. Here is mine. This Super Duck is actually based on a artist work. By the way, I saw off bits of the longer leg to solve the uneven length issue

I know this is an older post but does the figure come with that yellow belt or did you have to find one?

I had to find a belt with the right buckle and I also had to paint the belt yellow

Recently got this during Ekia’s sale where he was already only $99. Anyway love the head sculpt because it’s a mix of cartoony and a dash of Robin Williams on top of it. Felt the boots where too thin, so switched them out for some Dragon in Dreams WWII boots that I painted brown and did some weathering and dry brushing on. They are bulbus enough to give that cartoon feel. Cut up and stuffed some make-up sponges down them so they fit tight around the feet I put on him and so the boots weren’t loose. I did remove the black belt and made a cloth yellow belt for him and heated up the smoke plum to bent it a little so it wasn’t coming out at an angle. Super Duck did an amazing job on him. Hard to find any kind of review on him. Going to make him a custom stand to finish him off.
