Super Freak
I got "my" Les Mort today, but I'm not opening him because I'm selling him to another board member. Sorry.
I ordered one of the Les Mort and I can't wait to get it. Hopefully on Monday!
What is really wild is that I used to buy Threezero's Hong Kong figures back in the days of the HK toy craze. I have a couple figures that are pretty rare and I totally dig them. They both are similar in spirit to the Nom figure.
One is called Brothersrobber and it was a joint production between a HK toy team called Brothersfree and Threezero. It is a 12-inch figure with a bizarre headsculpt that looks like a gasmask has been fused to his head. And it came with a ton of accessories like metal digging tools, guns, knapsack and a ton of mini paper money.
The other is the rarest figure I have. I think it is simply called the Threezero trooper and I think there were only 100 made. But I was able to land the super rare version with a total number of 10 being made! While all the normal ones had a headsculpt with the gasmask sculpted into the head, the rare ones actually had a metal helmet and metal gasmask hiding a headscupt of the owner of Threezero! The figure came with a down type jacket with fur lined hood and a metal assault rifle.
Anyway, I have jabbered on for too long. I'll see if I can dig them out and get pics if anyone is interested.
I'd love to see some pics of those.
Just got mine today overall I'm really pleased but he is far from the near perfection Bertie was. Just a few quick gripes...
- The Bone. Not sure if it was a style choice or not but there is no texture and it's just molded plastic. No paint.
- The Belt/Guns. I really wish they hadn't used plastic it seems really cheap, and for the price I would have expected fabric. The guns are one piece but it's not a huge deal as they still look good.
-The Scarf. It's just one piece of fabric and doesn't have any wire in it unlike the coat. So it looks weird when you have the coat posed like it's being blown around but not the scarf.
All in all these are pretty minor gripes with a really cool figure.
Wow he looks totally awesome! Thanks for those pics Adam!
I will probably have to wait a week longer for mine to arrive...
Not worried. You do it how you like it man.
Oh and btw for those that are confirmed for a bamba lad sculpt by me, how would you like them? Just like the proto or a different position? Painted or unpainted?
This is the actual colour that I am gonna make them in if you guys don't want another paint scheme.
