Does anyone know where this picture is from? I could only find this thumbnail. Looks like a repaint of the CCtoys Ellie head. I need to find the artist so they can repaint mine. Even in this ****** low quality picture it looks incredible!

Found this thread while looking for the progress of Limtoys tlou.
Why is the title The Least of Use? It was hard to find
I completed my custom Ellie last year.
Sharing some pics here. Thanks for your interest.
Can't wait to see Lim's proto.

Why is the title The Least of Use? It was hard to find

It’s a parody on the crazy names third party companies use for their figures. “The gunslinger” “the last survivor” “john lander” just to name a few.

It is hard to find, youre right. I often search for “guitar dinosaur” and the searchbar will still only show it at the bottom of the results for some reason.

Is it wrong to hope for an actual "guitar dinosaur" figure, now??!

That’s point, it being hard to find haha

It’s the name of the game with two E’s added in. Gotta keep those legal issues away, Lim already had it once and almost had to cancel a figure over it.

Im dying for some quality 1/6 TLOU in my collection already, hope Limtoys isnt too far out to let us PO soon.

Anyone see any updates posted on other places? I can't get into the LIM Facebook group.

A tumbleweed rolled across LIM's Facebook the other day. Other than that, no news.

random but I was thinking. Most figures that come with an extra headsculpt they always go for neutral and angry expression.

But wouldn’t it be awesome if Ellie came with a laughing expression? Would look adorable with her little pun book.

Waiting for a regular third party company to be inspired enough by this to make one, and sell her for around $1200 less than Artisus'.


Unfortunately, the only general release Abby I'm expecting to see is an HBO Kaitlyn Dever.

Might just be me but don’t you think it’s a huge downgrade from the test paint to the final prototype? The paint looks very different and way too soft. A lot of likeness is lost. I know the sculpts are directly pulled from the game files so likeness shouldn’t be a problem .

Maybe the bright lighting is throwing it off but it really doesn’t look how I’d expected it to.

 

[Space Jockey]

I think you're right, it does look like a downgrade.

 

[Akiratang]

Yeah looks like a downgrade, I expect no downgrade at the price they're charging, but ig it is what it is.

My next project. Dina.

Wasn’t able to find a proper shirt or dye one. But found this male dress shirt in the right color.. I’ve never sewn anything in my life. Im going to make a pattern and practice making the shirt with some spare fabrics then take the male shirt apart and completely remake it. Wish me luck.

I also want to add that I’m blown away by the new worldbox female bodies. I was expecting them to not be much better than your average poptoys body. But this body is amazing. It feels premium, hefty in the hand, tight joints. Great articulation. And the bit of extra effort that went into painting the body with some shading makes it much more realistic.

I picked up the AT203 as Dina is a bit on the curvier side. With much wider hips than Ellie. I think the body looks very accurate with her game model. It’s nice to have different bodytypes in the collection. Makes it more realistic.

I used this same body for my Dina as well, the skin tone and the articulation works so smoothly. I just need to figure out those boots she's wears and that under shirt. I found a 1/6 back pack on Etsy that's the same style as hers in the game, just haven't gotten around to actually working on it
