Here's another vote to finish the trio. We got the Good, now we need the Bad and the Ugly!!!
I'd be happy to help as I feel I have a pretty good eye for detail but I wouldn't call myself a GBU connoisseur by any means. Actually I'm pretty much a GBU noob. Marf and Army pretty much turned me on to it and I only watched it for the first time like 4 months ago (I've watched it 4 times since but that's another story ).
I'm new to it but that doesn't dilute my love for it. Once I got thru it the first time it completely sucked me in. Tuco is classic and is now one of my fave movie characters ever.
I know that this has a lot of support and I'd happily play point man if Denny needs the hawk eye for the fine details .
I'm sure first and foremost he'd like to see a bit more support. 15 is good but it takes 50 (-/+). If a few more guys chime in with their interest I can start to compile a list....
Some of my lame pics from Famcon. Check out the Famcon thread for more if interested including links to my YouTube coverage.
Hmmm... Se A Kim doing some studying for something ahead...?
GBU is such an amazing movie because of its three leads. Blondie has such a strong appeal as the cool, strong, mysterious lead despite not having that much screen time. Tuco steals the show with his antics and characterization. Despite this, I am still drawn towards Angel Eyes principally- he is menacing and has a palpable stage presence. The scene at the beginning of the movie with him eating the beans and glaring at his prey - you could tell straight off that this was going to be a man to be reckoned with. I will also never forget the scene where he executes his employer in bed - it is sudden, unconsciously brutual, and incredibly memorable.
I do think that we should probably make a seperate interest thread for Tuco and Angel Eyes. I think it would be much easier to get the 50+ interest for them then. That being said, we should wait until Denny talks to Rainman and asks his permission first.
Also, out of respect for Scott, I would hold off on the Harry talk until at least after his Head and Clothing sets go on sale on Friday. He may say he doesn't care, but I think it would be a nice courtesy.
These are great Marlo. You also managed to get a shot of Daryl in the famcon thread. Thank you for that as well.
The figure highlight of FAMCON for me were the 2 Clints: iminime's Blondie and Velvet's Dirty Harry. I can't wait!!!
Yeah, I really meant to take more pics and vids, but it all went by so quickly! Glad I at least got the few that I took! So great hanging with you and everyone, bro! I think you got more video time than photos from my camera!
I think it was the same for me! Very much looking forward to the Blondie DX set and Velvet's Dirty Harry, even if I had to settle for the unpainted kit version for that one!
Just in case, some little bit of footage in this vid at the iminime booth! Been posting vids in a few threads now, so getting confused...!

You got a DX? Nice! That means we'll get an awesome video on it, right?

And I turned Marf on to GBU. I thought I turned you on to GBU pop? I never get my credit when I deserve it.
Yeah, I was one of the very lucky few! Wasn't easy and I almost had a heart attack with the process, but I scored one! I don't know about awesome, but I'll try my best to do at least a decent video review once I get him in! Believe me, after seeing this figure at the show, I'm only more excited to have him in hand!
Frank and Harmonica would be great. This is actually my favorite western of them all, but if I had to choose my most preferred western figure after the Man with No Name it would be Liberty Valence.I'd love more GBU, but my true 1/6 Western want is 'Once Upon a Time in the West'. Frank, Harmonica, and Cheyenne, in that order.
Eh...never been a big John Wayne fan. Leone's movies were the first that ever spoke to me that Westerns were more than just movies my dad made me watch as a kid.

One of the best, most bad-*** western characters of all. Of course, the Duke would be a nice complement that that figure.
