LEON THE PROFESSIONAL - Enterbay

[Terminator_Fan_Game]

Got my Leon yesterday and got around to throwing him all together tonight! EB really did a great job on this figure if you can get past the minor QC issues here and there.

I got Leon for an AMAZING price from Super Power Collectibles during their 50% sale before New Years, so regardless of all the BS with the case and hat, I'm extremely satisfied with this figure.

Few quick pics of the pose I put him in

Congrats man! What problem are you having with the case btw?

Thanks bud! I love this figure! The only problems that I'm having with it is that it is separating from the seams like a few other members have posted here. Not a big issue at all, a little glue here and there and then it's back to normal

Got this guy today, very pleased with him! I will attempt the hat mod later and post some pics!

Highly unlikely Enterbay would consider it and even more unlikely Oldman would give his likeness rights.
I said the same about Jack Nicholson and the Joker though and that ended up happening so I suppose you never know.

I think the same to be honest but the difference is that Joker merchandise in the year of a batman movie will financially be very lucradive for all parties involved.

A Gary Oldman from a mid nineties movie with a cult following will not be racking in the dough enough to convince Oldman to do it or to be worth Enterbay's while.

Maybe they can put his head on their next nude body

Until then there is still tracking down Rainman's version which was nice and the headplay Oldman head was actually quite nice... i have one to sell if anyone needs it.

Ughh like an Idiot I turned his head a few times and the body scratched the bottom part of his neck, I don't like how tight the neck is to the body like that, luckily I can hide the scratches with some futzing( which needed to be done anyway to reduce the giraffe neck) but I still hate myself for scratching it!

I scratched his neck(on the body) quite a bit too...by hacking away at it with an xacto knife! But yeah, as long as you cant see it, I wouldnt worry my friend.
The neck also sucks because it gives no articulation at all really. Thats why I gave him the surgery
I also made him some better socks today -

Still got loads to do on this guy.

 

[Calcifer]

Those look way better, want to send some of them my way?

I padded my leon out a bit under his Henley and I did the hat mod( thank god it worked, not perfect mind you but still a great improvement) I think eventually I will get someone to paint the grey into his beard and possibly fix the scratches at the same time, I also got a few white spare buttons from Kato that I will put to some use.

I will take pics once he is all setup properly.

Cool! Looking forward to seeing those mods. The padding really helps the giraffe neck I think.
I wouldve took a full body pic of my Leon to show the socks but I really find it hard to take a decent pic of him. I dunno what it is with this figure but my pictures really do it no justice.
I suck at taking pictures anyway but this one is impossible for me to take a decent pic!
About the socks, if you pay the postage I'll make some for free for you. They only take a few minutes to make anyway.

 

[Calcifer]

Cool, I will pm you about the postage cost tomorrow, actually since you can make those socks how hard would it be for you to make your own hat for Leon?( not that you need it, but just curious)

 

[siquisiri]

do you have the link to the hat mod??

I honestly have no idea about the hat. It doesnt look too hard to make but I often find out that things that seem simple are sometimes not! Its not something Im thinking of doing right now.

If you ever did mate I'm a customer.
Any figure of Leon becomes an instant nightmare because of that hat.
I want a Kato Leon hat.

Iv stopped collecting figures but I have to say this blew me away when I saw it. The likeness is unreal!

Man you must have missed a lot of good figures then because, while this is a decent head, there are literally dozens that blow it out of the water out there.

I must admit they have got really good of late. The superman looks real good too but im concentrating on busts right now.
I think this looks awesome tho.

I might pick up the re-release of iron man mk1. That looks pretty epic!

That's a good one to get yourself back in the game with! It is indeed gonna be epic

 

[CeeemOr]

HEy Ray,What's up bro!You're right about it being decent compared to other sculpts out there but this is by far the BEST sculpt of Léon i've seen.The only one that i've seen that comes close but no cigar would be Feng's but Enterbays totally blows it out of the water!I think so anyway!^_^

Well damn. I phukt up one of the buttons on the coat. The bottom one. The little nub that pops into the other button. It just popped off. God knows where it went.

Anyone know a good fix?

Be more careful next time?

But you could try to glue a small piece of plastic to act as the hook. Maybe there are 1/6 buttons or hooks that you could sow on yourself from eBay?

 

[zipflint]

Yeah be more careful for sure. Although, in my defense, I AM very very careful with my goofy, expensive-ass dolls, lol.

But yeah, never hurts to be more gentle. I guess I'm off to google around for tiny little buttons. Although....removing the one that's broken is going to be tricky....

And after all, it still looks damn awesome with the coat just hanging open, that way you get to see the harness that's filled with weapons. I have yet to take some good photos of this guy. One of these days....
