Awesome, did you find out it looked like him or just thought it did?​

There was a website called Famousfigures.com that had a list of figures that matched famous stars, etc. it's been down for a while now, but hopefully will return. That's where I found out about the likeness to Gregory Peck. If anyone actually does a Peck sculpt though (which I doubt), I may replace him.

Yeah, I know the website, it has been down for ages. Yeah, there are not really any sculpts of him.​

Okay, here are a couple more heavy hitters. I repainted the hair, eyebrows, & mustache on the Charles Bronson/Paul Kersey hs, which was just horrible when I got it. I did a black wash over all the hair & dry brushed the grey in. The Clint Eastwood/Dirty Harry is just a simple bash with the Brothers Production hs on a TTL body. Got the magnum & brown suit off EBAY. Enjoy

That is a great repaint.
Original sculpt is a great likeness, knew I should of picked one up, when I had the cash.

Harry is cool too

Mines coming and stallone too, but for now here is the ultimate tough guy, don't get no badder than the fonze

"Smell my finger"

Cheers, thought you'd like it, as it has the same vibe as the james dean figures
The sculpt is from spencer and the jacket needs some slight modding /sewing but it is this one.

Gotta thank gb and of course to spencer for making the sculpt in the first place.

I really like it, never really watch Happy Days but this figure look's awesome. Should not be hard to make a 1/6 comb.​

Watched it as a kid all the time, great show

There are some ken/barbie combs around that I could use but I have an idea for something a bit special for this fella.

I had a feeling that the Fonz was done by Spencer he has a distinct style.

Re: Classic "Tough Guys" thread - Bogart, Cagney,Weissmuller (Tarzan), Cooper & other

Yep, I started a commission thread for the Fonz a long *** time ago... it never made the minimum Spenser wanted but he was cool about it and still made the sculpt available for the handful of us that wanted one.

Well, that's interesting! I asked him to consider a Laurel and Hardy sculpt which he did a fabulous job on, and he didn't even consider a minimum or start a thread for orders, so I started one:

He does an excellent job with his sculpts...your Fonz is nice! Aayyy!

I just finished this guy for this thread. I had the extra hs laying around and went through my parts bin. Found a white felt hat and went to town on it with black paint, and hairspray to reshape it. This is a younger version of Charles Bronson joining the posse of tough.

Re: Classic "Tough Guys" thread - Bogart, Cagney,Weissmuller (Tarzan), Cooper & other

Fantastic! And the posse grows..

Did you paint him?

No, that hs is how I got it. I think it looks pretty good with the lighter skin shade. I put it on a DML body and started throwing western gear on him. I think I might pick up a better gun rig and darker boots down the road, but I think he fits right in with the rest of the group.
