Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

Lovin this.

What another great sculpt from Denny and team. Can't wait to have all three on my shelves.

I agree though. No DX, but instead another release.

I'd be fine with a DX, just not a Bandito DX. If they were going to include another head, I'd prefer it to be the other one that folks were voting on. That being said, if not, I'm more than happy with this one, as this expression was my preference, anyway.

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

Just a couple of small, crude collages I put together to give us an idea of what these guys will look like together:

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

Haha awesome, these look so bada$$, I have Blondie on PO and told myself that was it, saw Angel Eyes and I was like uh oh and now Tuco seals it haha, will complete the trio!

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

Yeah, there's no saying "no" to these guys, especially with Blondie on the way.

Does anyone know of anywhere that still has Blondie available? I was late to the hobby and the iminime Cowboy would be one of my grails. Thank you!

Someone was selling a Non DX FullSet in the WTS forum

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

I believe that was Amalak. I bought his DX12 off of him. I was hoping someplace might still be selling the figure at retail. Amalak's non DX at $600 is steep, though I've been considering it anyways.

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

This is a hot item, unfortunately not sure you will find one available, especially for retail

Yeah, $150 is a steep price to pay for a non-DX, but I foresee it only getting higher as time goes by.

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

I'm beginning to realize that. If I can't swing it now, hopefully at some point in the future I'll land it. It's the only HS I've seen that does it justice.

 

[batfan08]

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

Definitely. I've seen a lot of customs, and, although a lot of them were really good efforts, even though you could tell that it was supposed to be Blondie, you never really could see Eastwood as Blondie in any of them. So far, all of these offerings have been stellar, and I can't wait to see what Dirty Harry looks like (well, I suppose my wallet can).

 

[theundeadkennedy]

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

Lol. Yeah I can't even think about Dirty Harry yet, need the 2 figures from this thread first.

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

Yep. I had Hot Toys I wanted to buy this year, too, but, suddenly, Howard Chan seems like an after thought.

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

That expression is just phenomenal. There's just so much character in it. This is going to be one hell of a set, and I think that whoever decides to tackle these in the future, be it a year, 5, or a decade from now, is going to have one hell of a time if they want to top these.

Wait for sometime in the future... someone might sell their painted headsculpt... and you can maybe grab a clothing set.

Re: [iminime] The Bad & The Ugly - Completing 'The Cowboy'

One thing I'm curious about: how are these guys going to be released. Are we looking at a PO date sometime this year, or will it be a while yet? The only reason I'm asking is because I'm curious how much I'm going to need to put back before a certain date. Between these guys and Harry, that VIP membership's looking pretty good right about now.

Assuming this release turns out at least as good as the prototype, I don't think you'll be seeing the regular set for less than that. Quite the opposite, particularly when the other guys get released, and demand for Blondie goes up up up.

Sadly, I don't think it will take Q long to put a cheap recast head up on eBay, so that might reign in legit head value a bit.

Agreed. Ridiculously expressive and brilliant.

That may be what I have to do. I had an unexpected bill that cost almost $800. Keeping me from being able to swing that $600 for sure.

Nice.

I'm afraid of that, if I wait too long he'll be completely out of my price range.
