Hot Toys - MMS157- Sucker Punch: Babydoll

Cheers barry it certainly looks good in your pics. Im kinda glad she has rooted hair, i think it looks good on some figures but not on all of them.
What version of alice is that? Is it just a kitbash afterlife alice? i keep meaning to get the brother productions clothes set for the extinction outfit you just reminded me haha

Lol. I get ideas like that all the time on this forum!
The Alice is a custom. Alice head and body, HT IM2 Black Widow boots and this clothing set:

I bought a couple of Alice bodies and a few Alice heads on Ebay with a mind to make a few customs. I ended up making just this one.
But it looks cool enough to me anyway.

I think this might also work for an Alice custom:

Wow those clothes look really cool, & the price is very good.
I dunno why but the past few years ive been drawn to more female releases, i got the Battle suit Jill then Alice waited out on the sucker punch girls & thinking about getting angelica from POTC definitely getting Selina kyle. I wonder where you get those boots from in the 2nd link you sent they look beefy

Yeah i keep meaning to get a 2nd alice body as i was bored one day & hated her huge butt so i shaved the rubber off but coz she wears tight pants you see the outline of the plastic where her butt was looks like a robot butt now lol

Wondering why HT decided to release Amber first rather than Sweet Pea. I know this line most likely won't be continued but at least Sweet Pea would be a more suitable choice to accompany Babydoll!

The actress being a Korean, Asian

I see, it could probably be the reason. Which explains why Amber's headsculpt is better than Babydoll in terms of likeness because the sculptor was sculpting a type of face he/she sees everyday. Just like Storm Shadow. Damn spot-on!

Yes. I am often on the lookout for cool "civilian" clothes for these figures. Although i have a fair few original HT figures, my interest is firmly on customs.

If you mean these boots, then we are all out of luck. Available for $20 a pair a couple of years back(Before i got into collecting), they are now as rare as hens teeth. In case you want to search(And i am looking for a couple of pairs too on the off chance you source them faster than i do), they are "Dollsfigure black combat boots" They also came in white and red, but the black looks best.

I know EXACTLY what you mean!
I am using an Alice body to make a custom female Iron Man suit and i had to completely remove her *** to get her in the suit!
Here are pics, and also a pic of my "ladies" shelf with my custom Supergirl(The body is POTC Angelica):

I'd say many would disagree on that point... and not a clear cut agreement as with Storm Shadow..

I think Babydoll's head(While not a 100% perfect likeness), is a lot better likeness than Amber's.
Amber isn't bad as such. And i'd never sell mine. But it doesn't look as close to the actress as Babydoll's is to my eyes.

I really like what your doing with your customs barry, One off's for sure Yeah i think its a good idea to experiment with those type of clothing sets available, there's no real rules on what a character should have to wear especially the female ones & they do look good
Yeah i will look around for those boots if i ever come across them i'll be sure to let you know

Thanks.
And like you say, there are no rules for customs. Just what looks good to you.
I have a TFA Cap with a Rescue version head, and a hollowed out helmet which is how i display him.
I have another rescue version head that i am going to display on Avengers Cap when he gets here.
I have four custom Superman figures, a custom Bruce Wayne, a custom Tony Stark, and President Obama wearing a Captain America uniform!
It's all about the figure YOU want to have. Not anyone else's idea of what's cool.

Thought I hit the jackpot tonight when I found a brand new Baby Doll on Amazon UK (being sold via a Chinese third party). £65 for her and £17 postage. Ordered her, got my confirmation email along with a new postal charge for £240!

I could have taken it up with Amazon or the seller but time was ticking on my card being charged so it was promptly canceled.

£240!!!! **** off!

If it sounds too good to be true, it usually isn't true.
I bought a Babydoll from a guy here on the forum last year. About July i think.
It *never arrived*. He claimed it must have been lost in the post. But never provided me with proof of posting.
THEN he says he can get me another one. But i have to pay an extra $55 for postage.
I am of course still waiting for my refund. Each time i ask, the excuse is worse than the last.
Will the threat of a bad feedback spur him on?
Maybe...

If it sounds too good to be true...

Got one off EBay today for $180 shipped. I don't know if that's good or bad, but I thought it was such a nice figure I'd give it a try and I won. I'm going to try the eye lash thing as soon as it come in.

haha, I fell for the exact same deal last week, luckily the postage appeared in my cart before I hit the pay button, but god, that moment when I thought I'd got babydoll for 65 quid....

I ordered Babydoll from a shop brand new in Europe on Monday it should be here tomorrow or maybe Saturday, I might be selling her on as soon as she arrives as i spied something i else i want last night but don't have the funds due to buying this figure, So if anyone is interested i may put her on the classifieds here. I paid 149 euros for her plus 21 euro postage so it comes in around £150 converted. Don't think you will find her for a price like that brand new unopened. if i get interest i will put her up for sale in the ad's

well i buckled when she arrived, had intended to sell her on as soon as she arrived but when i saw her in hand i had to keep her Amazing figure very underrated indeed. I'm more than happy here's a few quick shots i did not great but you get the idea

That's unlikely to happen.
But about the hair, the original promo shots had a side part, but the first batch sent out worldwide all had a middle part. It just looked weird.
