BLITZWAY - 1/6 Carlito's Way

[PopCultKid]

Yea I can definitely cosign most of what Ray & the other guys are saying. I pulled Bane out, got greatly underwhelmed (I have to go and give him another chance) and haven't been able to stop hangin' out with Charlie since.

The packaging is indeed very classy. The only real nit that I have with the set is the accessories. I have to say they aren't even in Hot Toys' realm. The gun, knife and bottle could have been done much better. They're all good bits, but not HT style of amazing.

But the sculpt is so spot on its sick. We can all say that HT makes a killer sculpt; I'm pretty sure that we all agree that 95% of them aren't PERFECT. Most of them are off in some way even if it's a tiny detail.

This Blitzway sculpt is PERFECT!

Can't wait to hear your thoughts! It seems like we are all in agreement for the most part this is a very special peice. I really love it a lot, for example I got bane the same day because it felt like obligation and I could care less about that damn thing,I haven't picked it up since weds but I can't put Carlito down!

Besides the paint not being as good as the proto I have to complain about only one left hand, otherwise??

Wait until you see the tailoring, flabbergasted... Really the best tailoring from a mass produced figure I've seen! The inside of the coat has a varnished paisley Etro looking pattern on it, the lining on the INSIDE of the gray shirt is also a special fabrication. This thing is out of control awesome. I'm obsessed!

I can't wait to see the tailoring...it looks amazing in the photos.

I'm not sure what people are expecting in the way of accessories from this figure. It's not like he really has a defining accessory, unlike say Tony Montanas chair.

I actually thought the accessories were fine, and in the cases of the gun, a little too detailed (and thus fragile). Especially the silver gun.

Agree with you on the sculpt.

yeah, i don't know what else you could have given him. the extra shirt was more than i would have expected, frankly. and yes, he is still expensive, buy dayum he's worth it.

sorry about the exposure on this; doesn't do the figure justice. i am having a life and death battle with my crummy camera.

 

[PopCultKid]

I think the accessory selection itself is perfect. What I said was the quality is a cut under HT. I think that HT would've done the gun, bottle and knife a little better. The glasses are same as HT I feel

thanks!

it's actually my arkham asylum office diorama. and it's unfinished. but here's a couple of shots to give you an idea.

you can see the opposite wall is still blank, etc. i have a lot of work to do still.

because all of my other characters are batman-related, i am probably going to have to recast mr. brigante into a new role.

he really does...reminded me a bit like Klienfeld's office.

simply a score for the price...to me blitzway has just set themselves a standard with this 1/6th figure. i expect some of the same next figure they produce.... from the sculpt to the material for the clothes, all top notch, even the pattern on the inside of carlitos jacket is an upgrade. makes me woder if the "real" jacket had that? the skin tone could be better.. other than that, this is a 'grail"
i bashed me a second carlito with the brown jacket, he wears it now and then during the movie.....i added those 1970's pleats to the pants, right down the middle., makes the pants look a ton better..

Nice set-up Mighty. Where's the jacket from ?

Nice bash

Every time I see hat couch I think it sucks. It looks so uncomfortable

 

[IDMCustoms]

Got mine in and love him too. The paint could be better, but it's still a great figure. Your Carlito looks fantastic in that Spade J jacket mightyq!

If they would have added two more steps to the painting process and a couple more left hands this figure would have been the best mass produced figure ever. Ever.
