Yeah, now the guy is gonna brag around town about how Clint saved him

Really?! He would brag you think? Man, I would be thankful that Clint (or anyone for that matter) was around to help me. After writing the preceding sentence and imagining me in that situation, I would prefer maybe, Jane Fonda in her prime, performing mouth to mouth resuscitation

DA:
It is a small world...wow, and your wife knows him...goes to show, we don't ever know how long we will be around so let's make the best of it.

Joel: Hope all is well with you in jolly old England! Although DA is from a warmer climate here in the colonies, the rest of us are getting buried with snow! Can I send you some?

Haha, keep that stuff away from me mate, warnings of getting it down here! But...England's snow does not really compare to others snow!

It's actually been raining for the last few days around here. Not complaining though cause CA needs it.

Its funny because it's true! haha



Well, I have not really been doing anything classic actor related so thought I would show something. Yep, Jett Rink again, I know! But I changed the boots for these ones! Any one who knows the Blitzway Al Pacino Scarface will know them! I added pegs to them to fit the Hot Toys styled figure body! They have magnets in them and the figure comes with a glossy black base that also has a magnet in, so I added the fake grass over is a kept the black border! I like how it came out!

I like him a lot! And the grass looks great...so you mean the magnets keep him in place? nice!

Yep! It sticks it to the base, pretty cool design and looks great, still strong after I applied the fake grass!

The BW Scarface design is pretty cool and I would love to see more figures using that style to eliminate waist and crotch grabbers.

For sure DA! The Hot Toys ones are a big improvement over the older one's eg Sideshow but this is much nicer than any others in my opinion!

It's really a nice clean look, but you need strong ankle joints for it to work right.

Yeah! The figure body mine is sporting holds up perfectly! You're right, much more realistic!

I don't know why, but BW went away with that Scarface style magnet stand for their Carlito release

Yeah, I was wondering why they did that too! Odd.

Brando looks great, Jerry!

Any plans of downsizing that huge zipper?

Yeah, that zipper is pretty huge isn't it! I suppose I could tackle that one, replacing it, but the jacket is a temporary one. The one I really want him to wear is the black and red checked one, and I'm working on getting that one...

Man, I just got through watching "Streetcar Named Desire"...I had forgotten what an intense movie it was! Yellin', screamin', accusin', edgy movie, all achieved without special effects. Just fantastic acting and dialogue. Brando was young, brooding, and excellent. Vivian Leigh was even more incredible. If you've never seen it, it was way ahead of its time for 1951...

Now, I need to go watch it again. It's been a few years for me too. Great work on your figure by the way.
