Bros. Productions Die Hard (Dirty Johnny)

[Platty]

I think a few of the hong kong stores are owned by the same person, or by people who are in with other store owners. The similarities in postage and prices just give it away. As long as you get what you pay for it's all good. I just recieved 2 headsculpts from 'marketoys' and i'm happy.

Just use common sense and try to work out what is a knock off etc.

Is "bbicn" also associated with Store-Rooms (along with Manhohole, Commastore and Marketoys) on E-bay? I PO'd this figure from bbicn--damn, I don't want to end up with a cheap copy of this figure in the end!

I can't figure out how you order from them since the only English on their site is the occasional manufacturer's name. How did you do it? Did they take PayPal?

I think he PO'd through BBICN's ebay store.

 

[SHOCK-Advised!]

Yup, that's what I did.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Is this due next month?

Curious if anyone really ended up buying it.

The dirty head sculpt looks good, but i believe it's because the likeness is enhanced with the dirt & grime.

I'm not a fan of the clean head sculpt. It's on par with NECA $15.00 action figure.

I definitely plan on picking it up, but not until I know how soon it will be showing up (probably until people have seen it "in-hand").

 

[Wor-Gar]

I'm still on the fence myself. I might get it but, like you, I want to see in hand pics first.

I like the sculpt as shown. I also love that the tattoo is already on the arm, even if the body isn't great.

 

[darkknight]

Is he still available to PO other than ebay? Any other trustworthy stores has him for sale?

 

[SHOCK-Advised!]

Any news on this figure's release date yet? It seems like an eternity has passed since I've heard anything about it...

 

[Cheungkinmen]

I really don't know, but I guess it'll take a while :/ . It was supposed to be released in Q3 of 2010, hehe.

 

[xkage824]

toys 2 told me mid november for this

 

[karamazov80]

Whenever someone sees an actual release, please post here. I really want this guy, but I'm not gonna gamble on the pre-orders I've seeon on eBay.

Looks like some ebay people are getting it in stock. abc-express has an auction up, and had a BIN, which I couldn't resist buying! From their pics, it looks like it came out good! The neck looks quite long, but it doesn't look too noticeable with the button shirt on it.

 

[xkage824]

this is good news minus the long neck
is there a link to the pics?

 

[mattman6886]

Here's the link to the abc-express auction with their pics:

Aside from the neck, the only other negative I see is that the stickers for the "I hate _" sign seem to be a different color than the sign, which is weird. Other than that it looks great to me, especially that dirty headsculpt.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Looks very good to me.

 

[karamazov80]

Looks like the prototypes for the most part, IMO. But a really basic, knock-off figure like this is not worth $150+ to me. Maybe upwards of $120, like what "Screaming" Jack went for.

That yellow sticker could just be the paper backing to a transparent decal.

 

[Deckard]

Wasn't Jack like $80?

But yea they are worth it, even tho really its not justified since they don't have to pay for the license, the figures are top quality for this kind of release. I think this one turned out just fine, but I still don't love the hair. Still pop on Daniel's Bruce head and your gold.

Good point. Didn't think of that. I also wonder if maybe they didn't push the head all the way down on the neck in their pics.
