Dam Toys Godfather Don Vito Golden Years version

[ymba]

Thanks Swedish,

Yea, been around a while and I call it as I see it. You are correct, my customs are probably a few dollars more than the Formal version

I was initially concerned with the Formal version ( Heads and the foot peg) but after
getting it in hand, I was more than happy to report the figure was a hit! In fact, I was planning to sell my Yunsil, Yelim GF which should tell you how I feel about the set.

As for this set, I do think the body might one of the problems. When a figure has layers of suit, shirt, coat, it takes a special Tailor to pull it off. The last picture above looks good but still not sold on the body. The TUX version you see next to golden is the Dam toys version and not Yunsil. That fit and body are perfect!

G Zeus, that looks perfect, assuming it's not a custom coat.

I’m glad I got this one

The last picture looks much more promising but still think the hat might be sadly too small. Hope to get my figure soon for a honest review .

I think the only thing I dislike is there’s no crotch grabber for the stand. Overall great figure that’s easy to recognize

The base is magnetic though right? Makes for a better option.

Oh well I won’t be using kghobby again.
Ordered from them on the 9th as they said they definitely had it in stock.
They still haven’t sent it & today my regular guy says it’s released & he has it in stock.
Lesson learned there

No mention of magnetic base in the details.That would be great but it needs strong ankles to stand on his own feet

I have this preordered, prefer it to the tuxedo option (boring in my opinion)

Mine should be here tomorrow, can't wait!

Hopefully there is a magnetic stand. Seems a waist if there is not! Not a fan of having my $400 figure with no support.

 

[creasy]

Mines been sent now, should have it next wk. Really looking forward to getting something that’s not from hot toys-think the last thing was blitzways Tyler durden.
Surely they must include a support of some sort with it though?

Jumped on the wait list for this one at Timewalker. Was just going to have the formal version, but this one looks so damn good too.

 

[HMC117]

Such a beautiful figure. And so many options to pose and great accessories, all of the highest quality. The sheer value for money is fantastic. Way more satisfying than opening a Hot Toys up

Is the base magnetic?

Nope. Was it magnetic on the formal version?

That's so rubbish, £260 figure on a base with no grabber or safe way of standing.

Tux had a base you could put a grabber on.

I've never had a magnetic base before, but i tried it when i unboxed him and he didn't stick. He stands pretty well though. Regardless, i'd say that's the only worthwhile complaint you could have as everything else is just incredible.

 

[Godfather1408]

Cheers for letting me know I'll probably use museum putty on this and stick him to that base.

Seems a silly idea not to use a grabber etc.

All that money and the possibility of it falling!!! Stupid
