BTTF: Marty and Doc.

[MarfMaster]

just watched this the other day on Blu....man those are great HS's there spencer

Just got the Blus for xmas, cant wait to watch em!

Well, I haven't glued the head sculpt to the TT narrow shoulder body for Marty yet. I do plan on getting the great Doc Emmett Brown head sculpt from Spenser someday soon so I'll have both him and Marty. So yeah, I'd want Marty to be shorter than Doc, like's he supposed to be. So what body did you use for your Marty figure Skiman? I heard some guys used a smaller German 1:6 scale body. Was it a Dragon one?

I asked for the Blu-Ray set, and I REALLY wanted it. But I didn't get it. So I'll try to buy it as soon as I can.

S1 body over at MonkeyDepot, great price and awesome points for articulation, I believe it be the small man secret body that many don't know about or have given it a chance. I love it for the smaller guys, I used one for my Poncho as well for the Predator Rescue Team since he was smaller than the rest of the crew.

Okay, cool! I'll go by Monkey Depot now and check it out. Then I could save my HT TT narrow shoulder body for Doc Brown later on. Thanks again Skiman!

I just checked over at Monkey Depot Skiman, and I didn't see the "S1" body. Maybe I overlooked it there. Do you have a direct link to it for me?

Is the "S1" body a Dragon, or Soldier Story body Skiman? Help me out when you can with finding it at Monkey Depot. Thanks again!

When I did my Marty and Doc, I used truetypes for both figures. I took out the ankle pegs for Marty and used a dowel rod to attach the feet directly to the legs. It worked perfectly! (Check out my album if you don't believe me.)

The Toms Forrest shoes are a little big, but look 100% better if you give them a wash with dark gray paint to take away the "newness". Best of luck with your figure. I have never enjoyed bashing figures as much as I have with Marty and Doc!

Oh WOW, you're right they did sell out of them, they'll get some more back in stock. I'll let you know when they do. They just need a re-stock is all.

 

[JediMike71]

Okay Skiman. I'll wait to see if/when they restock the "S1" body. So...is it made by Dragon, Soldier Story?

I've thought about doing that with the HT TT narrow shoulder body's legs kgrhoad. Take out the ankle pegs, or something like that to make him shorter. I may try that too. But I really want to see this "S1" body over at Monkey Depot as a possible one for my custom Marty.

Thanks for the link, but the crazy owners vest is more accurate if you can find it. That one is lacking the buttons on the left-hand side.

 

[Kuzeh]

OK since I finally finished my Karate Kid bashes,
these guys are next on the list!

Just Pm'ed Spenser to see if he still has them available
If anyone has spare parts of clothing and all that, I'd appreciate it!
!!

 

[MarfMaster]

Hey Kuzeh, I have a Doc sculpt (neck adapter included) & hands painted by Greggo up for sale here if you're interested!

 

[Deckard]

Well Doc is going to be tough because Beto only ever made 7 Radiation suits. Also Marty's shirt and vest aren't readily available anymore but the rest can be had on ebay.

 

[JediMike71]

I got the custom vest from Leo Morgan, and I LOVE it! That's the vest I'm going with for my Marty figure.

Guys I wanted to get your opinions about what denim jacket, and blue jeans to use for Marty. The Expendables Barney Ross blue jeans look decent. But has anyone used any other jeans that work better? What about the denim jacket? I think a custom-made 100% accurate movie jacket would be incredible. But what's a good alternative to it? Please let me know! Thanks!
