New jack nicholson "the shining" figure!!!

[Voorhees27]

Nice Roy,its damn good isnt it?

I swear its not the hype of a new figure talking but this is just awesome!

I would suggest buying a bit of black Ritt dye and dying it the right color. That way you'll get a better (although yours looks fine in the picture) black color.

Its funny you mentioned that brand because I did dye it first and it was Ritt that I used It would not stick to the fabric and i've dyed a few pieces in the past too.

2nd figure looks great Voorhees!!

Weird... Although I remember DA having problem with some fabrics not taking dye. He would use washes of really watered down black paint. I guess it would stick, but if thin enough wouldn't get stiff.

Yeah unfortuntely I drenched the sweater in black paint so i'm sure he's a mummy by now Eh, it works and does look alot better in person. Man i'm still just blown away at Saturday Toys' quality in this piece!

 

[galactiboy]

Its a great figure... the likeness still isn't 100% Nicholson, but its very good and the overall quality is excellent. The boots are especially kickass!

I decided to add a jacket to custom Jack, the true types shoulders just bug me.

Very nice! Where is the jacket from?

Very nice! Where is the jacket from?

I ordered a bunch of things off of Ebay (Seller from China) and he either was trying to be nice or made a mistake and included it in my package. Honestly though my pics sucks ass, these 2 figures look so ace its not even funny.

I'm very pleased with both the regular and the custom.

The sellers name on Ebay is minibarbie921

Greetings all, this my first post on this forum... and for good reason.

Jack arrived in the mail today and I am extremely impressed!!! From the packaging, to the paint applications and tailoring of the outfit - this figure is top notch!! An awesome figure from one of my favorite horror movies.

I ended up cutting out 2cm square pieces of cardboard to put it inside his front pockets of his jacket to keep them flat and in the right shape. It works well, without having to stitch anything down.

Here are a few snaps

Welcome and congrats on getting Jack! He's a great figure

Your last pose (Jack with the axe on his shoulder) is a fun one!

 

[Nige]

Thanks galactiboy. I haven't had this much fun with a figure for a long time, he's just so cool!!! I loved Subways initial product shots of Jack standing around with his hands in his pockets like a fashion model and also with his hands on his forehead, ready for a meltdown. I'm really impressed with the Saturday Toys body - it has great movement and poseability. Highly recommend to anyone who is sitting on the fence with this one.

I think the crazy part is that they even went as far as creating the exact same back pocket design on the jeans. NO details were left out and the clothing is about as identical to the film as you will ever get in a 1/6 scale piece.

I just love this figure! Subway! Make more stuff!

 

[galactiboy]

No doubt... they really delivered and the price was great!

 

[Nige]

Can't wait to see what Subway do next. They are such a dark horse, this figure seemed to appear and circulate from nowhere!! Exciting times to be a 12" collector

Galactiboy, you said you didn't think the sculpt was 100% Nicholson. I really can't fault the sculpt and think it's crack on to Nicholson in the movie. What would you change?

 

[Voorhees27]

No doubt... they really delivered and the price was great!

I just can't get over what great craftsmanship Saturday Toys has with 1/6 clothing! Truly the best out there!
