MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Customs

Re: MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

I think the 12" HHH figure will work great for Humungus. Cut the hands at the forearm and put HT or BBI ones on and repaint the body. The mask would be sculpted to a head since we never see a face. Should be a good staring point. Just waiting on one of those HHH to show up in my area, all I see are the other 2 wraslers.

Have you checked Toys R Us? I bought mine at the store in Quail Springs... they had an ***-load of them.

I think there is a 2nd wave coming as well which might have some more options.

Is the Hogan one the same as those older 12" buff-as-sshsit WWF figures?

Re: MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

No Hogan in the series so far... there's only been one series and it was newer wrestlers.

Re: MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

A bit smaller than some figures, but I think he will look fine with Dragon based Max figures.

Do Humungus, that would be awesome!

And yes, Spenser was originally supposed to do WEZ after Max, but the sales just weren't there at the time. But a new energy is growing here, thanks in large part to your custom, Elivis.

I can try to PM him again and see if he's got the time or interest.

But we'd better have a good idea where the outfit parts are coming from otherwise no one will buy the head.

I know you're pretty good at custom stuff, maybe you have some ideas how to make some of the bits?

All I can suggest for Wez is: 1) football shoulder pads with chest rig (DML) and 2) Ken Harley figure that has chaps (that's key for Wez).

The wrist gauntlets and boots and other stuff might have to be hand-made.

Re: MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

for wez i think we need to find those shoulder pads and make mold of it!
For the leather chaps i can make them it's not a big deal! And for the rest it's just bash!
So everybody come on wake up WEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

That leather set is nice, but is completely wrong for Max.

 

[elvis1976]

Re: MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

Hey no in fact it's the one i used for mine my dear evilface! But with a lot of tweakings!!
GIve it a second shot

 

[EVILFACE]

Re: MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

It takes tweaking, but it is still not right. Max has very plain leathers. The seams that run over the legs and the extra zippers on the jacket and lace up sides arent on Max. Can you take a pic of the side of the jacket?

who wants to compete for it

I'd love to, but its too much money for me plus to ship here to the states.

And Evilface is technically right. The pants aren't correct, and the jacket has too much detail... but it can still work very well as we've seen with Elvis' Max.

I want the jacket because I may swap it out on my Terminator, then give the T-800 jacket to Max. I think that would work. What do you think, EF?

Re: MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

i agree that it isnt screen accurate for max, as its been designed for a terminator, bet there isnt really much on offer in respects to leathers for a max figure, we pretty much have to work with what we can

Re: MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

Time to bring this thread back to life.
Here's new Max I'm working on.
He's not finished yet but wanted to show the WIP.
This is the Chris H. headsculpt that i got from Toyadventurer. I drilled the neck and add a ball jointed neck.
The outfit is from the sideshow terminator completely refitted and weathered.

Re: MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

Great work. Looks very complete. I'd never quite bought into a version with the eye injury until now. Beautiful paint work and weathering.
