I'm doing Arthur in the hallway scene (second dream level), and Cobb from the first dream level:

I still need to get brown shoes and belt...

I'm a little envious of you guys. Especially those like Marf who just go custom crazy and jump on (seemingly) everything cool (and do it well)! I have to be a little more selective with my funds. I have a SMALL collection, the majority of which are customs. I secretly curse the day I stumbled upon this site. lol

Thanks for the props man These two figures are actually a last hurrah (customs wise) for me for a while.

There is something so much more satisfying of piecing togthee a fig yourself rather than a fully formed HT piece.

There is nothing like putting together a one of a kind piece (of art) that represents a property that really means something to you.

Regarding the color of Mr. Charlie's suit, I think it's pretty clear from this picture that Leo's suit is lighter than black:

If I were going for that look I would buy the gray suit and dye it a darker gray. Otherwise two black suits will definitely look off.

I have no idea how to dye stuff though, so I'm glad I'm going with the leather coat look.





Also, is there actually going to be a finished Suitcase that we can buy and display opened?

I now need a new leo suit!
I guess the black sat. toys one will be good for now.

I now need a new leo suit!

Heh, sorry.

Which tony stark 2 suit are you guys referring to for Arthur? Any links?

[beeshaw]

Me too!!!

Keep in mind that it doesn't come with a vest LookCloser.

 

[Maglor]

Good point.

Here's the vest I got: https://cgi.ebay.com/DiD-1-6-WWII-German-SD-Plainclothes-T-Becker-Suit-Vest-/160418189564?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item2559ab50fc#ht_1739wt_913

 

[beeshaw]

Me too!

Keep in mind that the vest doesn't have pinstripes LookCloser.

Wow very cool find! Are there any dealers that carry this stateside?

 

[Cheungkinmen]

I just read through all the 50+ pages in this thread, I feel like I just woke up from a nightmare (pun).

Funny thing, I haven't seen the movie yet, it's not showing in my country until later this week, and I'm so ready to jump on the bandwagon of inception bashes. Thanks all for the links and tips.

Daniel!, bring in the heads!

 

[Maglor]

Wow very cool find! Are there any dealers that carry this stateside?

Dunno, though I kind of doubt it. But I've never had a problem with a Hong Kong seller. The only draw back is that HK stuff always requires a signature (in my experience) so you might need to pick it up at the post office if you aren't home when the mail carrier arrives.

And the positive side: Hong Kong postage looks rad!

 

[beeshaw]

And it's quick! Just got my shipping notice from that seller.

 

[Maglor]

Me too!


I have done business with toysmon in the past. At least twice. He is good to work with and has friendly communication, despite the language barrier.

 

[MarfMaster]

Got mine as well!

2 figures planned, 3 suits and a vest ordered...got to love bashing

 

[Maglor]

I am trying to find brown shoes for Cobb and not having any luck.

I want the kind that fit right to the TT ankle as opposed to slipping over the foot. I think that's what we have with the Stark suits.


I could just buy these:

..and paint them brown.



Any thoughts? If I don't have to paint I would rather not.

 

[MarfMaster]

Hey mag, you can look at shoes from Sideshow figures as well. The HT ankle pegs fit quite nicely

 

[Maglor]

Nice! I think I have just the thing...
