why are you letting it go? did you do the repaint yourself?

 

[Rock83]

No Venakin Skywalker member here at the forum painted this one.

Im letting it go because i have 1 original one and this repaint and need the cash right now for other collectibles.With the dollar going up lately i need to choose whats important and whats not because everything is costing me 30% more to import these days than they did 2 months ago.
This is the only one going though,will keep the Original Eyepatch Snake and the rest.

 

[JonnyReedie]

cool, id jump at it but money is tight for me at the moment too...


did you see my finished snake custom on the previous page btw? what do you think?

 

[Rock83]

Burned Face Snake?Yeah i saw it before when you posted pics,amazing custom indeed!

I started on a Snake Arab custom from MGS4,but i changed my mind,its actually not a custom i prefer.

 

[Peteskywalker]

Hi guys thought i would show you my custom snake.
The head is a custom made from the Dr Figures head sculpt but with face and hair resculpted and a bandana added. The head band still needs a final coat of paint but the rest is finished.
The Suit is the medicom one but on a hot tots body
The harness is all the good bits from the Dr Figures one crossed with the medicom one.
the hands are from the new BB batman and the 2 guns are by hot toys.












Sadly i may be selling this as i am a decorator in the uk and have no work :-(
I would be looking to make 150UKP so thats 240USD witch is what i need to pay my bills and is less than what it cost to make.
I will prob be putting it on ebay in the next week but wanted you guys advice if you think this is a realistic amount to get from this?

Cheers guys

how did you put the suit back together?

 

[JonnyReedie]

thats incredible... it blows my custom snake to bits, im very interested in it, but 150 is a bit too much for me when christmas is around the corner!


it's very nice though

Its just like the HT bats just peel it apart and use super glue to stick it back.

Thanks for the comments guys

You mean the listing at 555$ ?

Would love to get my hands on that Eyepatch Snake,allthough im suspicious about new sculpts as my previous one fell apart,the neck broke when pushed on a Medicom Neck.

 

[JonnyReedie]

the eyepatch one is okay, but i think those sculpts are awful...

 

[Rock83]

the eyepatch one is okay, but i think those sculpts are awful...

so true,but the eyepatch one is pretty good.

 

[Furious1]

The eyepatch looks a little small to me...I would probably make it just a tad bigger.

I suspect that decreasing interest in MGS as IV starts fading from peoples' minds, along with the ailing economy, is going to keep these prices down at a fairly reasonable level for a while. I was looking for one of these earlier in the year, and they seemed to consistently go for $300+ If they get to around $150, I might have to bite the bullet.

agree
