MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Customs

Yeah I painted it black. I had to heat up the rubber then bend it, put it in cold water to set it in the new shape. It looks ok but there is nothing on the market that looks like Max knee pad, so your a bit screwed it that regard.

how about VTS Dredd pads? they look pretty close, just the edges might be too wide but can be sanded down and add few metal rounds.

Yeah they could work, need some mods though.

i only use official shots as reference as i found out most costume sites aren't that accurate. sometimes you need to pull out the Full HD movie and do screenshots because there aren't any shots capturing the right angle.

Found a new multi tool on eBay. This is a lot closer to the tool Max uses, it has the can opener attachment.

wow. what kit is it from and how much?

This is what the 'multi-tool' looks like. It was actually a British Army Knife.

I've heard a couple people talk about 'IRIS' selling clothing sets...
WHO is IRIS, and how/where can I contact them?
I would like to try to buy a RW waist/sholder belt set with the rear pouches,
and maybe the shoulder pad if they make a good one.

Thanks.

No, I got it wrong. It's IRIS.
I edited above.

FullMetal customs made some Mad Max 2 accessories. You might need to sell a kidney to afford his stuff though.

I'm already in the process of making payments for the FMC set... now I'm looking for IRIS.
Evidently, IRIS made many clothing sets; Max from 'The Road Warrior', Bill the Butcher from 'Gangs of New York', Forrest Gump, and the villain from 'No Country for Old Men'.

I'm just not able to locate IRIS for communication. The quality looks excuisite; here's a pic of the 'Bill the Butcher' set.

 

[Mr.E]

Iris doesn't sell individual parts like that unfortunately. She is commissioned to make full outfits and her current wait list is loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong.

I see... thanks. I'm very glad I found your excellent boots though.

Scott Petersen done some Max clothing and accessories sets some time ago. Not sure if any are still floating about?

 

[shells075]

Hopefully with the new Max sculpt on the market, it might encourage someone to do a new run of Max clothing/accessories. The awkward thing about a Max custom is everything he wears is very specific. So its hard to bash a fig.

Started on the leg brace yesterday, real pain in the ass fiddly job, still got to attach another leg strap and add the connector at the top of his boot but I will wait for Mr E's boots for that.
Looks pretty bad but It will have to tide me over.

I wish Max hadn't got shot in the knee in the first film.
