Re: Molecule8 (New company)

Great point! Considering the price point for some of Sideshow's latest releases and pre-orders M8 will come out as winners here either way! There is no way that this will look worse than Sideshow's latest Lukes or even the proto picks for Jack Burton.

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

I'd love to see a great 1/6 music line. Obviously we don't need to revisit Michael Jackson at this point, but putting Lennon next to him starts the display. Then add Elvis (black leather outfit), Prince, David Bowie, Freddy Mercury, Jimi Hendrix, maybe a Jim Morrison and Janis Joplin...

I welcome any musical pieces! So Far I have

Enterbay Elvis
Daft Punk - Ram
Jimi Hendrix Woodstock and Tunic.
Freddie Wembley
Brian May wembley


and ones that I'm waiting on or are being made atm are.

Prince Purple rain - Mega hyped for Yunsil is gonna kill the outfit!
David Bowie
Ray Manzarek - Hollywood bowl
Jim Morrison - Hollywood bowl
Jimmy Page

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

I've got the Thriller era Hot Toys MJ figures and JOhnny's Freddie Mercury. Would love to add a bunch more beyond John. Paul of course, Bowie, Jimi, Eddie Van Halen, Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, vintage Madonna, Elvis Costello, Tom Waits, and Rob Halford, Police-era Sting, Misfits-era Danzig, David Byrne in oversized jacket, computer generated deliverymen from the Dire Straits video, etc. But realistically, I only expect these to come up once in a blue moon. Usually as custom projects.

Aaaaaggghhh!!!! Thanks a lot! Now Elvis Costello has bumped Bowie as my most wanted music figure! Had not even thought of that!

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

A personal favorite of mine would be Jeff Porcaro from Toto, but I might be the only collector on earth to say that

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

Never really thought about the possibilities of music figures because licensed 1/6 offerings have been so limited but I used to eat up everything that came out of NECA and McFarlane...my big loves are Film, Comics, and Musix so it's about time my 1/6 collecting incorporated this too. I want the $900 4 pack of Townshend, Daltrey, Moon, and Entwistle...now I just have to decide the era...Woodstock or earlier "Who Sell Out..."

Hopefully they do a Dan Finnerty next! With different outfits and hair!

Kraftwerk.

C'mon, it's the perfect use of their endoskeleton. They'd only have to make the heads and torsos, after all.

While we're doing wishlists:

I always wanted a composer series. Mozart, Beethoven, Liszt. All would be stunning looking figures.

How about we kill two birds with one stone and have a 1/6 Roger Daltrey as Franz Liszt from Ken Russell's "Lisztomania!" Historically inaccurate but one of my favorite films anyway! You probably want real Liszt though...I understand...

I'm with you, The Who would be the ultimate 1/6 band. Let's throw in Morrison, Hendrix, Jagger, Dylan for good measure.

Trent Reznor
Jim Morrison

Hold the line! That is the most epic post I've read in ages!

That's an extraordinary suggestion and would lend itself well in 1/6 scale. Historical composers and musicians (as other posters have suggested) would make for a prime display. Speaking of historical and period pieces (and while there's a wish list of sorts on the move now) I would love to see historical figures of the old West. Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday, Red Cloud, Geronimo etc. would be aces on my list, as well.
Alas, I'll step back now into the shadows and let M8 do what they need to do to get to their other licenses...fingers crossed for LOTR making a show soon.

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

Am I the only one who saw the singing sculpt for the brief period it was up on Facebook? I was browsing with my phone. I know how to save a photo with my phone, but I never think to do it. And now I cannot find it. I think K.A. Kim put it up too soon.

Here you go, Gruff:

found this on facebook

Looks good, but might make for an odd display unless you have him sitting on a piano, or with a guitar or mic.

Yeah, yeah, yeah!!
