Asmus Toys: Escape From New York Snake Plissken

[Gipetto0812]

I hope they don’t go for seamless arms given the discoloration that’s happening with the rubber they used on their Gollum

The ones with Ash were also an absolute failure. As soon as you bent them they’d implode and crease incredibly unnaturally. Should just go fully sculpted if you can’t figure out how to do seamless properly.

 

[Nagoya]

Definitely more concerned with their DMC Trish now, too. Hope she, and subsequently Snake, won’t have those Ash or Gollum issues, but it “seams” inevitable now

 

[Johnny Utah]

If Snake has sculpted hair, I hope he doesn't have that middle parting issue all their Aragorns have.

Hmm wonder if it could be revealed there then if they're at the same time or just a blog post on their own social platforms?

I think Asmus’ stuff usually is displayed at Diamond’s distributor booth when I’ve seen them.

So far no dice or presence of Asmus at Comic Con period.

Damn. That figure just came out recently too.

Yeah. That's why a lot of us replaced it with the JXS01 body. I ended up just using the stock body for Deadite Ash. Which is cool because it makes it useful but it's so damn stiff & awkward for a body imo.

I sold mine off. Just could tolerate the inadequacies.

Man, I'm pretty bummed. Getting a look at Snake was what I was mainly excited for from seeing at the con this year and nada.

Hopefully we don't have to wait too much longer..

I can't say I blame you. I put a lot of work into mine and love it now.

From Asmus:

I took 2 photos that is showing the test of hair style.
I think the development is fairly early right now,
but we are expecting to release it this year or early next year.

 

[DGSimo]

Looking really good. Rooted hair looks good too but it's still early.

 

[Johnny Utah]

The only part that worried me was the middle hair parting, since all their Aragorns looked bad. Since this is gonna be rooted, they just need to get more volume, plus a good muscle body and accessories will be key.

Looks good though, need that 81 Kurt in my life!

This being a crown series if they put a lot of effort into this like they did Gandalf the white then we'll be in for it. At that point give me MCready from the thing and Jack from BTILC.

That would be another grail piece for me. (Currently awaiting what Mondo will end up providing...)

 

[MarkKing]

Snake looks good. I have the Sideshow, and I think this look much improved. I do worry about the actual release obviously. I wish these companies would include a second head. Either with sculpted hair or a different expression.

 

[HMC117]

No update in nearly a year?

 

[Luisenigma1]

Definitely hoping to see how good this turns out. They have the chance to get better then before. Hopefully this and their newer Evil Dead 2 Ash they are also putting together will be great.

 

[Chopper Face]

They’re taking another stab at Ash ‘Willams?’

Yes and Waruna is doing a new sculpt for them. Could also be a upgrade pack for their last figure similar to their DMC3 Dante. But hopefully they give an accurate chainsaw and shotgun and clothing and body details are improved.
