I was very underwhelmed by the pictures is saw on the internet. But i found a great deal on Mac so i decided to buy it.
The head are great. With some work the jacket can look really good. Of course the body is a total garbage. So after switching the body and enhanced the paint on the face i am happy with the result so far.
With the second head I removed the plastic hair and went with a freezed look. Bought stuff to make the last fight version.
Here's both of my Mac's so far.

Excellent work! Bravo. I'm still modding mine to achieve two similar looks.

Looks terrific, Elvis!

Can the hair on the first sculpt be easily removed like on the second/shocked sculpt?

This looks phenomenal!! What did you use for the gloved hands?

Yeah super easy to remove. Just put the head in boiling water and use a plier to gently detach it from the head.

I used some german leather long gloves. Not 100% accurate but works great.

Here's another look i can go with. The glasses and sombrero look.

Beautiful stuff!

 

[karamazov80]

Masterful, as always.

 

[cpoll36]

Yep it looks phenomenal! What a funny release this has been from Mondo. It's the only commercial cult figure I know of that was lacking in many respects but has been made so much better with the creativity of the 1/6 collecting community.

This is sooooo good! Bravo!

Can you please share the list of items needed to make this second figure using a spare head sculpt?
I would try to hunt them down and try it myself.

I'm still waiting on my order. Intended for Christmas months back and BBTS sent me a processing alert on 11/25 but nothing happened. I called them and they said nothing has started processing on this product so they must not have it yet. What the h*ll is going on with Mondo and why don't they tell their customers what is happening? I'm about ready to say the heck with it and cancel.

BBTS's notifications have been broken for the last 4 weeks - lots of "about to arrive" emails followed by crickets.

Not sure what's causing that.
