Okay, Eagle. Thanks for the name of the gun. But where can we get one if we are interested in buying one? Do you have a website URL for us? Please post it here if you do. Thanks! :D

Thank you Eagle! I'll check it out! The pulse rifle looks absolutely incredible! I want one now! I just wish I coudl afford it. I gotta save up for this one! It looks just like the real ones used in the movie guys! Check them out! :monkey5 :D
 
At last, I have finished my spikey haired Hicks variant head. It is available to anyone painted or unpainted.

It is an altered Stoner head, where I worked in more worry lines and slightly altered subtle details in his face, around his mouth mostly, and of course, added the hair. I had to work it over time, and test fitted my Hicks helmet to it as I worked. When the helmet is on, it sits just a tad forward from where it would with the smooth headed Stoner, due to the hair in front, but it's not bad. Just casts a little more shadow over his eye area than before. Point is, it fits! Better than the "Reese" head supplied with the figure did. Way better.

Anyway, the head...

I changed out my own Stoner repaint for this one on my Hicks figure. I may even make an acid injured variant soon.

I painted this particular one dirtier than I have before, so he is more late movie Hicks.

PM or email me about it if interested. I am making these more affordable for Hicks collectors, as I know he runs high as a figure. This shouldn't be all that expensive an upgrade even painted.
 
Incredible work Les . . Im am speechless!!!!

The hair looks great and the paintjob looks unbelieveably lifelike, a perfect likeness. This headsculpt should look cool with my headset :)
 
Wow~ awesome man!!! I would love to upgrade my HT hicks with this head, PM comin' your way!
 
Oh...my...goodness. That sculpt is sweet, but that paintjob! THAT PAINTJOB!
PM time :)



As for correct marines, I'm not sure if I saw it as I scanned through the thread or not, but have we talked about the pulse rifle strap? While there are a bunch of problems here and there on these figures, I've found that the strap made me the angriest right away :eek: The material is...bah. The stuff they use for the belts are of a much better material. Even so, it's the bit of padding that really irks me. I finally took off one today to see if it makes a difference, and it does. Now to just find something better.
And watch the movie to figure out who doesn't have a strap.
 
Sweet!!! The wheels are in motion, and my Hicks will actually look like Hicks!

Thanks a million Les! :rock2
 
Regarding the newly revised Spikey Haired Hicks heads...
Due to the overwhelming response to this one, and huge turnout of requests and orders for them, I am putting a temporary hold on further orders for this one until I get all these I now have done, and shipped, then I will let you guys know that more can be ordered.

Thanks SO MUCH, and I hope my work with them will make them rock your collections out even further for you all.

Working hard on them now.
Please bear with me as these and other commission work is at hand...I will update as I can. Thanks all!


More to come soon.
 
Ok, SO I know this isn't EXACTLY the same as what this thread is for, but I figured I'd ask here, as I was directed to :)

The drake figure, I really can't stand his muscled arms. Is there a hot toys body with the same sort of neck attachment that I can use, that his hands and everything else will fit on? Preferably one that's pale so I don't need to repaint it as well:rolleyes: The exposed joints are not something that bothers me. I dislike the lack of poseability more.
 
You might try the HT New Gen Life body and switch out the heads. Seems like the NGL neck will work with the Drake head. Don't know if that's a confirmed solution but it seems to be. Get the Asian version if you do...
