I hate free-roaming, vaporous, full-torso apparitions Jock. I hate 'em!

jez mattel must use the slowest international shipping service i've ever encountered. I got the first ray no probs but the second one is still to arrive. The fact that they give no tracking number doesn't help either.

Anyone in europe still waiting on theirs?

Still waitin' on 6" and 12" Ray

Bloody postal strike I'm guessing
Just wish they'd hurry up and arrive,

Kindest regards

Don't think its that im in ireland so the postal strike over in the u.k wouldn't apply here and im still waiting. I just think they may be using some very slow cheap courier service for delivery....which really doesn't help. I guess thats the problem when ordering online internationally the long...long...wait times. People over there in the states don't know how lucky they are when all they have to do is wait a day or so for delivery. By the time it arrives it'll be time to order egon lol

I like this sculpt , the only problem that i have with it is that he looks expression less... the hair can be fixed but he looks like he's getting the picture taken for his residency card or something...

I'll go for it and see what it looks like in my figure.. which.... hasn't arrived yet, and i'm in CANADA!!!!!!!!!! very close to US.

I agree the sculpt lacks expression, and Ray, if nothing else, expressed a lot of looks/moods throughout both movies. Some might not look the best on a 12" action figure, but the bland look of that sculpt just doesn't evoke his character enough, imo.

Here's a sample of just a few of Ray's more animated expressions...

After being fired from the university. Not at all happy, and rather similar to the expression on that head sculpt.

Ray's first glimpse of Slimer. (One of my favorites)

"What a disgusting blob!"

Getting ready to let Slimer have it! (Another favorite)

"You gotta try this pole!"

Ray chuckles after Peter gives Egon the candy bar. "You...you earned it."

To Winston: "You're hired." * (Good shot of the elbow pads).

i've improved my paint job on this head over the weekend (particulary the eyes) and his expression is sightly better-the pics dont really do it justice but ur right, its a very neutral sculpt.
but hopefully my ray will arrive this week and ill post pics of this head with the figure as soon as poss but i think he'll look pretty cool

 

[CAZAFANTASMA]

SURE THING!!! You'll have a SUPER cool GB figure!!!!!!!!!!!! A huge improvement comparing to Mattel's sculpt!

Please post pics as soon as you have the fig and please tell us how difficult it was to attach the head.... (be sure to pour hot water on your naked ray before pulling out the head , i heard the neck breaks) And post pics on different angles. You could add a cigarret to the sculpt, it would look sooooooooooooo cool!

Take care

Here's my post customized Ray:

 

[teabelly83]

so what didu use tocustomize urs? body/boots etc?

Here's my post customized Ray:

 

[samueljd]

I used a narrow shoulder TrueType with a fat suit, Hot Toys military gloved hands, and the SS Cobra Trooper boots. The goofy head is the only thing left to change.

 

[CAZAFANTASMA]

BTW, where is that yellow hose going???? It kind of freaks me out hehehe . It should go connected to the belt in the back .... Is it connected to the protonpack??????
