That is good news. Do other retailer usually have chronicle stuff or do they have exclusives on the chronicle website? Sideshow for example.

Not sure if this was mentioned by anyone, but wanted to be sure - the bodies you're seeing these on in the SDCC pics were just glued together as examples. They are still working on finalizing the actual articulated body.

IT was mentioned but I don't think anyone is paying any mind to it.

Yeah, reading to comprehend went out years ago on the Internet.

This was a must buy 1/6 figure but from these pics he looks like a toy not a high end collectable. More pictures please.

Not the final figure at all. Just a VERY rough proof of concept to generate interest. Rest assured the final product will look killer.

Really looking forward to this one.

Is there a pre-order date coming soon? Any timeline with this release??

Most likely later part of the year or beginning of the next

Got any other details? I know they're making Thulsa Doom too. Chronicle has been very quiet on the Conan 1/6 front since SDCC.

They're busy with getting JP stuff out first. Don't worry, it'll come soon enough.

I'm not sure if these have been posted but there were some shots I hadn't seen.

These came from Chronicle's Instagram, by the way.

 

[Bob Morton]

thanks for the pictures! Not bad at all! I think I will get both, depending on price. Hopefully the sword is metal.

Cheers,

I'm just not familiar with the company that's making these figures. They have a good reputation?

 

[Collectorcol]

They're producing some great statues and busts.
1:6 is a new project for them.

Here's my Arnie 1:2 bust...

Those are not the final products. The bodies were not fully articulated at that point and the regular Conan sculpt was undergoing an expression adjustment. These will be fantastic when done. Although Chronicle has the license for these, they are actually working with ACI, which does some great stuff.

Any chance they will do more Arnold films with these?

Yeah, of course! The show shots I had seen, but the ones with the white backdrop were new, and in my opinion, far more flattering. I'm torn between the two. On one hand I like the general, iconic look, but the Serpent Temple is arguably more visually interesting on a shelf.

You're completely correct. The normal Conan will be given a more stern expression while the Serpent Temple one will remain the same. Or at least that is what I last read from Chronicle. I think what makes the war paint sculpt look better is the black stripe giving him a straighter, more stern looking brow. That would make a world of difference in the normal version.

I hope. I would love for someone to take on Terminator again and improve on some of the things HT's have been criticised for, as good as they are all around, and because that was before my time in 1/6 collecting.
