BOND VILLAIN - who would you like?

[2000man]

I'd be in for a Largo too!

 

[Wor-Gar]

While Spenser deserves the accolades for the amazing job on Herr Goldfinger I'd like to thank Wor-Gar for championing the 007 cause. You rock!

Thanks, Killbeggar!

I was wondering when you'd finally get here.

007 Forever​

So I received my nude ITPT Goring figure for Goldfinger's body... it's going to be quite a challenge to get him properly clothed with how portly he is....

Where were you able to find a Goring fig? E-bay or was it at one of the on-line stores?

How do you like the body? Will it work? Good height to SS Bond?

On-line store... I have to get the link from my other computer, I'll let you know.

The body is good, think Classic Adam from Dragon/DML with a fat "shell" over the normal torso. You might be able to remove the shell if you really wanted to use another body, but I don't think I'm going to do that since I usually choose Dragon bodies for the base for customs unless the character is unusually short. Really nice bendy hands.



I think he''ll stand just a smidgen shorter than the SST Bonds, but overall comparative size is good.

Getting pants that will fit him is going to be a *****, though. Maybe it's time to see if we can get a group rate on getting pants made....

 

[Wor-Gar]

I like it!

Which reminds me, we never asked Spenser what kind of neck attachment he did...

I can only hope its a Dragon type.

If you're out there, Spense, let us know.

It looks great Spencer... Your partner did an awesome job with the tux!

Perfect outfit, Spenser! Just perfect.

Good luck with the Ebay sale.

Have our heads shipped yet?

 

[DarthNeil]

I snagged a Gorin from a website here in Canada so I'm looking good for the body--- I agree that the best Goldfinger would be in the tux with the gold. Solutions? Metaphorge I'm in the same boat with you--- got a free oar handy?

I take it that the folks in italics (myself included) are the ones who've paid? Are you going to update this for when they arrive as well?

Have you had any luck with the tux? What about the military outfit?

UNCANNY LIKENESS TO THIS PIC

VERY nicely sculpted AND painted spenser!

 

[DarthNeil]

Things have gone quiet--- ideas about possible clothing options?

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yeah, where did everybody go? The head's ready but for some reason people have left the building.

OK, clothing. I'm trying to put together the Auric Stud "riding outfit" that Goldfinger wears during his Operation GrandSlam speech. If no one cares about that outfit, no need to read further.

For those still reading, I've been searching ebay "dolls" section for 'riding pants' to find the right tan jodphurs. Given GF's size, its been tricky as most riding pants are Barbie thin. There may be hope with "Bears" -- larger size. I'm also hunting desperately for that gold checkered vest, but no luck. I have an old Ken vest that might work, but its made for Ken size dolls, not big old Goldfinger so I'll have to split the back.

Obviously, Dragon has lots of jodphurs for GF but most are knee-high. Boots are easy, NewLine. The jacket is fairly easy too, along with shirt and tie. I'll make a pool cue and a gold-laden Delta-9 cannister.

That's my plan. I wouldn't mind making a gold lapel Tuxedo either, but I just haven't found one I like yet. Again, "Ken" is full of tuxedos but we need one with a little girth.

ToyPresidents makes good oversized suits that will work. They are very low on stock at the moment. Hopefully, they'll get more in.



SPECIAL NOTE ON BLOFELD:

For those of you getting the Blofeld sculpt, may I suggest you start combing ebay and get the 12" Dr. Evil doll right away.
