Ghostbusters Bill Murray Ada group commission

[KingGrayskull]

I agree, normal size = better.

My 2 cents: I'm going to find it difficult to sculpt these small. Proper size would be a much better route to go. It'll pay off in the end.

Ray's head would not be a problem if it is bigger as it is in reality quite big too...

Maybe you could later add another Peter head with another expression so that there will be a possibilty to swith heads if wanted... But before we have to get the other heads (and the Blues Brothers)

so what's the plan? when is the next head gonna be started? i guess i could pay now if that will help get the ball rolling. i just didnt know if we were still in for these or if people got bored with it.

Hey Jon,
Oh no, things are not only still going, they are about to take off!

The switch away from Ada was a VERY good thing. Enough people not paying is all that is holding the commissioning of the next head up so far.

Here's the new deal since we are starting over fresh with a new sculptor.

To get this jumpstarted, prices are going to have to go back up to the original $35 a head. The reason for this phenominally long wait, as I explained earlier, is that I lowered the prices based on 40 people being interested, and then only a fraction of them paid and came through.

In terms of pre-orders reaching the commission/hiring price for the next one, we weren't coming close.

So for everyone who's paid already, and so far in advance, the previous, earlier price you paid holds for your dedication and patronage. Thank you!

To get these commissions really rolling again though, it's back to $35 a character now, and for those that can, paying ahead for the other GB's--- pre-paying for Egon or Winston--- will only make them happen faster. We could literally have the rest of these guys on the table by Christmas if we jump start this NOW!!! :chew:chew:chew

Shipping is still just $5.

As far as the STOREROOM Alice packs/outfits, the slow news is all on their end. I wrote them earlier this week for an update, and they are always a week to respond, but they never wrote back to my earlier numbers quote of what we said we needed. I don't know if they've actually started yet all these months later. I don't know what their deal is. When I get a response, I always let you guys know! It's kind of ridiculous. PM me if you need my Paypal.

sounds great. i should have my second pack done by the end of today. i really want those alice frames so i can see how these look on the figures. i'll try and pay for the next head this friday when i get paid.

Hmm but how about my Murray head then? I have not received anything yet...

Me neither. Don't worry, it is the typical problem with shipping overseas from US to Europe. Those ships do need a very long time... I ordered many times from the US and shipping time is really hard to tell it seems as it varries from 2 weeks up to 8... I think it has also to do with the way your local customhouse and how fast they act... I am hoping to get my things in the next two weeks as most packages arrive around that period of time...

@ WST or Chris

So we will get another Egon head before Winston?

yeah. i would prefer ray, egon, and winston in that order. but that is just me.

 

[KingGrayskull]

I really do not care abou the order... i just dont like the Egon head by Ada... But the order is really not important as I know we will get them all... :chew

Ghostbusters

Dam I go listen to the soundtrack now... Hurry up with those heads! I'm totally hyped...

Hey all!

Let me tell you this: I have always been a GB fan, so I'm going into these with the enthusiasm of someone who gives a darn. So I want these guys to rock! I'm just itching to get going soon.....

 

[William Shatners Toupee]

yeah. i would prefer ray, egon, and winston in that order. but that is just me.

Technically, if enough people pre-ordered just Winston before Egon, then Winston would happen first. If people pay for all of them to get these made fast and it's tied, then I think what you say here is taken to heart concerning order. :chew:chew

I say we go for "simultainiously!"

 

[Cryoguns]

Well, I prepaid WST for Ray, but my budget is pretty tight this month and it may be until the first part of November before I can pony up for Winston and Egon. But I definitely WILL be joining in on those!

 

[tigerfeet]

So looking at the list on page one I just need to pay an additional $25 for Egon and I will be sorted....bar the jumpsuits and alice frames obviously....

 

[Mudshark]

I lucked out yesterday and found some DML Alice Pack Sets (1 & 2) marked down to less than half price, so I now have enough frames for all of the proton packs I ordered! I can hardly wait to get started on them, but I'm still waiting for them (and my Venkman heads) to arrive...hope they'll be here soon, so I can start to work on 'em!

I had some big expenses to manage recently, but I expect be able to prepay for Ray, Egon and Winston soon, which should be after my other GB stuff arrives.

 

[The Craw]

something tells me the custom alice frames are gonna be a wash. i should have took the deal somebody on ebay offered me for 4 sets. it seemed spendy at the time but i think it would have been the better way to go. now i'm probably gonna be stuck without any frames cuz i've been looking lately and they are getting really hard to find.

Hey All!

Sorry for cross posting this in all the threads I'm working in, but I just wanted to let everyone know my Figures.com interview is up. I'm the hairy disreputable looking fellow with the Tiki idol.

Got to Figures.com and click on the Licky Joker at the top the page.

And to answer the burning question on everybody's mind, yes, I did base Santa's physique on my own.

 

[Mudshark]

I really enjoyed reading your interview, Chris, thanks for posting the link! I'm very much looking forward to seeing your work on the Ghostbusters' noggins!
