Thanks

Yeah I wish HT would branch out and do more of these type of characters.

Thanks

IT will be tough now that they only seem to do Blockbusters, but I agree. It would be nice to see classic characters.

Great pics, great figure!

Wish I'd picked this figure up when it was available. One of my few collecting regrets.

Yeah a Michael Corleone would be awesome. I doubt HT will make him though. I think Blitzway got the Pacino licence tied up.

Godfather arrived today.

Congrats man and fantastic work on your photos

 

[paramoremcr88]

Many thanks guys

I've always admired this piece but never thought I'd own one. Then out of nowhere, one just turned up at a price I couldn't refuse.

 

[Sidious-66]

Nice score and fantastic pics as per usual Para.

Last time I had a look the Don was upwards of £400 but like you say you got him for a price you couldn't refuse.

 

[paramoremcr88]

Thanks Sidious

The box wasn't in the best condition but everything else was mint, so really happy with the price I paid.

 

[freud]

It's very hard to find now, and it's ......expensive!

I've decided to throw in the towel after trying to find one of these at a decent price. I've resigned to the idea of kitbashing one from sourcing out parts.

Has anyone else gone down this road?

Look I'm not condoning it or anything but there's a soon to be straight up recasted KO set of this on preorder everywhere where the suit looks even better than the HT one.

I'd just get that one.

 

[Yodasodabo]

Word? I'll definitely be keeping a lookout. So a knockoff set like that origins Wolvy under $100?

That Wolverine set is damn nice. It is hard to condone such dealings, but at the same time this figure goes for over $1000. It is not fair to newer collectors to have to shell out $1000 for an older item like that.

 

[Yodasodabo]

Yea, my origins set should be here tomorrow. Can't wait! And yes, that's true, but they still have the original. I know I'd be happier knowing that. But I'm def picking up this godfather knockoff set.
This is the only set I could find on ebay, but it's a pre order. I'll wait for it to come in stock to order. Awesome of them to included the chair and cat

Damn, that's a nice looking set. The paint on the head isnt great but I'm certain I saw a better one on ebay a while back. I dont think there's a ever been this much (dare I say quality) KO/recast parts available ever before. KO Wolvie Origins and Joker 2.0 outfits, now a Godfather set. Sheesh. Who's next? Blade, Leonidas?

 

[Raymond F.]

There's actuslly a super quality KO godfather head floating out there in the 30 buck vein. So with that, this set and a body, you can have a top notch godfather for under 200 bucks.

Don't condone recasting but I'm a big advocate of abolishing limited editions. These are toys, expensive or not. They should be made avalible to all via supply and demand. This coming from someone who's had the godfather since the day it hit us shelves, I could give a damn what it's worth on today's aftermarket.
