One of our esteemed board members made this awesome figure, can't recall who at the moment.

 

[DarkArtist81]

Spenser made it and there was a thread here a while back... Really nice figure. :chew

Yup, here's the thread: Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez

Sorry for the repost, guys. But as its up on eBay now...

I've seen all of Spenser's stuff but I must have missed this. That outfit is amazing. He's priced out of my league but, man, what an awesome figure. Real hair too. Crazy!

 

[Jen]

That is nice...but also out of my price range...Now why can't someone make a custom Medieval Kurgan! There are a lot of exceptionally talented artists on this board....please someone make the Medieval Kurgan!! I would try...but it would look like these brown easter eggs!!

Such a nice figure too, but as you said... waaay out of my price range. Insanely great work though... I could never make something with a costume so well crafted.

 

[Customikey]

Wow! Amazing work!

As finely crafted as he is, and no doubt worth the asking price, I doubt it will get bid on. I don't think interest in Highlander is big enough to carry the value of the figure.

If it were Kurgan, would you pay that much?

 

[Jen]

If it were Kurgan, would you pay that much?

If it was done properly, I am sure it would sell.

 

[Darth Caedus]

Does it come with an explanation as to why a guy with the last name of RAMIREZ speaks like a scotsman ???

 

[Customikey]

I don't know, Jen. The most vociferous of Kurganites might blanch at a nearly $500 Medieval Kurgan 12" figure.

If it looked awesome i.e. great Clancy Brown likeness - awesome armor...I would be willing to pay in the $400 range. But then I'm obsessive like that!

And sounds like he's drunk with a slur too.

The real question is why an EGYPTIAN speaks like a Scotsman. Ramirez was originally born in Egypt under the name Tak-ne and killed when he was run over by a runaway cart. Ramirez was the identity he used at the time he met Connor MacLeod.

I suppose, like Connor, its because he comes from "lots of places".

 

[dekadentdave]

The real question is why a Scotsman sounds like a Danish guy with aesthma.

French you mean, well The Highlander movie is flawed, unlike the awesome series.

 

[dekadentdave]

Christopher Lambert was born in New York City and moved with his parents to Sweden.

So someone did feel this custom was worth the $450 price....

i think it woulda been a better "deal" (as in someone wouldn't have waited until the last day to bid) if it'd been around $350, but yeah, i'd have paid $450 for it if i tweren't freakin broke. i mean the only thing NOT handmade is the base body and perhaps the boot bottoms. oh and sword. heads an original sculpt, w/ HAIR!!! costume musta taken quit awhile. heck even w/ the fundage trouble i still came close to bidding, but i already paid a seamstress a tidy sum to make the costume for me so i can do my own custom...one a these days lol. i just wonder why Spens didn't make the hat for it. maybe there's a chance the real hair could pull off or getruined.
