Dark Toys 1/6 Rick Deckard

usually there is a gap near the bottom of the tie on the underside (the big end).

Found the tie insert. How about the belt for the jacket?

I have seen a few listed on ebay.

Do you have a link possibly? Thank you.

I also re-worked the shirt collar again as it looked a little too bulky. It's a pity they didn't just print the design onto the fabric, as it would have looked nicer. Anyways it is what it is.
I'd still like to try and re-work the coat collar, but i'm happy enough with how he looks on the shelf now

If I may ask . What do you mean “reworked the collar” ? Did you futz with it or re sew or repaint ?

I think the one I saw is sold, the link was the one I sent you in a PM a few weeks back.

If you could let us know how it goes, as I am waiting to pull the trigger on a new body myself. Thanks

If anyone is considering the AT020 here’s how the ankle peg looks in the shoe:

Fits firm, but not too tight.

I can confirm the BD001: COOMODEL 1/6 scale new 2.0 standard is a good replacement body . The shoes fit just fine, you may need to heat them up a bit. The body the figure came with is garbage , when I pulled the left foot off the ankle extender came out with the peg. I have the clothes drying on 3 different bodies from the water treatment I gave them . Going to try to finish putting it together tomorrow.

Cool, I will get one ordered.

I first removed all the stitching from the collar, and the design piece. Then i removed the collar piece completely and reversed it, so now the underside of the collar is now the top side of the collar.

I decided to do it this way because if you leave the stock side facing up, when repositioning the design piece, the stitch holes from it's previous position are too visible. So by flipping it over you now have a nice clean piece of material to work with. Also by removing the collar completely it makes it a little easier to reposition the design piece. Fabric glue everthing back into place.

Beautiful Ford exhibit.

I really like that holster you have on jacketed Indy too.

 

[slynger]

Judging by that pic, it looks like this body fixes the giraffe neck?

 

[Rogerbee]

Nice line up!

 

[FlyAndFight]

Slick looking display, Matrix!
