That is a very nice coat not to mention the very nice pieces shown here! I know! It is annoying but seems like it rarely if ever works!

Thought I would show something I had and have got around to using! I painted it up tonight and am very pleased with it! Still need to paint the hair! Mattel James Dean! Nicest likeness in my opinion. Cigarette added.









East of Eden James Dean next up!

Wow Joel, the painted Jimmy Dean hs looks really nice!!! Great work my friend.

Geronimo, I haven't been on that site for a long time and had forgot all about it. Thanks for bringing it back on the radar cause they do have good stuff.

I believe they do, Joel. The way that you order from them is that you pick out what you want, send them an email, and they will respond with an invoice. In your email, mention that you are overseas, and they will quote you postage and include it in the invoice.

I've ordered from them before and they have a lot of good things at reasonable prices...

That's great! Might have to give that a go! It looks really nice. Would be nicer if it was double breasted but still, very cool!

There is one that is double breasted...too bad it's not in black...

Finished up this custom James Dean as Cal Trask in East Of Eden.

RWOAC version split down for slightly upgraded parts.

Really great work Joel. You nailed it with that figure. I am loving the NY version in that pose with the grey coat too. I don't think you need to do a dam thing to it to be honest.

I think I really need to add Jimmy to my collection now. I think my best option is that crazy owners hs with a little touch up paint for the hair color, but what movie?

Definitely! I will be using that Head Sculpt next! It depends what look you want! Iconic Rebel outfit or the look from you're favorite of his films. The Crazy Owners Head Sculpt has hair that would work best for Giant!

Yeah, that would fit right in with my western theme.

The hair would be a clear winner for Giant or East of Eden but not so much Rebel!

The HT Rebel version is my personal favorite! The HT Giant version looks least like James Dean in my opinion! What do you think?

I am loving your repaint on the CO version personally, but that could be cause I'm gonna buy one. I really like the hs on your NY version with the cigarette.
