Dam Toys Godfather Don Vito Golden Years version

[Godfather1408]

Found a cheap easy solution for stable base. A flat doll stand metal off ebay slot it under the removable section.

That’s a good idea. If you comes across some magnets that work well, let us know.

My Golden version has landed! I haven’t use all the other clothing and accessories but having now received the figure, I am glad to report the suit , coat and headsculpts are winners!

The base suit has suspenders that are actually functional , the trench coat has real pockets, metal wire on the bottom which give it the posing cape option look and both fabric and suit a knockout!

The only negatives I see at first glance are the dress shirt ( with no real closed buttons ) and the tie is the crappy elastic and not a real tie on. I’m not a big fan of the hat as I think it is maybe 1/4 size too small. Might get a custom hat and a repaint of my main head and I think I’m set. The body is workable but the fat suit needs customizing and this is the biggest issue with the entire suit not fitting well or giving it the tapered look. Get your fat suit worked on and your whole ensemble will be a winner.

Here are a few iconic pics I took

Nice shots and mini review thank you!! If you could only purchase one which would it be?

I think that I prefer the look of the "Golden Years" but the tux is too iconic, so if I was getting just one, that would be my pick.

Curious to hear from those that have both.

Coming from a guy who exclusively own customs, I would say if you love GF/MB get them both. The quality and workmanship of both figures price point wise and overall workmanship is a 9/10 in my opinion

I had the tux version on PO and am waiting for that one, but after all these pics of the golden years one, I put myself on the waitlist at Timewalker. Couldn't resist. fingers crossed.

Why am I finding this thread at the bottom of the page? Does anyone have new images. Not a single YouTube video.

Youtube for Golden years?

I am really torn on these figures. I think I like the look of the Golden Years better but the classic look is so iconic. I don't want 2 Vito figures.

Decisions decisions.

If I had to pick between the two I would go with the tux version. It’s the most iconic and recognizable

If anyone in the UK is after one I have a brand new one extra for sale.

What are your thoughts??

What are your thoughts??

I actually really really like this set, frustrating as the base doesn't have a holder but still a really nice piece.

The 3 sculpts and options for display make it better vaule.
