Planet princess leia slave?

[Ninja4H]

there should be a neck connector in side the leia sculpt. mine did when I picked the head up the connector fell out

Nope. Crap. It either wasn't included, or it dropped off and rolled somewhere mysterious when I opened the package.

Anyhoo, overall i'm pretty happy with the kit. I'm using the *cough*Suntan*cough* Phicen S17b, and with some sneaky lighting, the colour difference isn't too bad. On display, and from afar you can't really tell the difference. I think the collar helps with that.
Downside with the S17B model is the removal feet, which are solid and not rubbery like previous Phicens, so getting them into the boots are impossible. Blu tac should keep the boots on though.

I love the sculpt.


I'm using the base and clip-stand from the Hot Toys Chitauri figure to pin the bra back. If a clear version of the grip-clip thing is available, that would be a good option to fix the flappy bra problem.




Or you can just use your hands. Possibly the cheaper option...


I'd love a permanent fix to the bra issue, though.

 

[sithlord13]

I thinking of making a band from elastic. It won't look great from behind but it won't damage anything and should tuck the bra in closer.

 

[Ninja4H]

Maybe the spare bit of string? Poke a couple of holes into the breastplate, then tie it up behind her back? Or even weave it into the existing strings?

I bought one of those kits off ebay for a slave leia some couple of years ago he casted the stuff in some hard substance not sure if it`s clay or something. I think he molded the outfit off of the Hasbro 12 inch. I might use the breastplate from that kit and the Hasbro waist plate. I think I got the same Phicen S17b coming it`s the medium breast version I think that's what this version is

 

[ali032373]

Any pics withtout the creative lighting? The bust size looks good.

Thanks.

Alright, I received my set in the mail today. The headsculpt is pretty damn good, but yeah, the colour difference is a tad noticeable on the S17b. I've got the S09 on another custom, but that seems too tanned for Leia's head. She's the middle ground, sadly.

Now, the bra is soft and pliable, so what would it take to make it harder (yeah, giggle) around the sides? Wrapping it around the chest makes the size of the bra look less ridiculous.

Also, the head doesn't seem to want to click in. Given it's my first custom headsculpt, would I need a neck adapter of some kind?

I'd love a permanent fix to the bra issue, though.[/QUOTE]

Since you said you have a S09, would it be possible to let us know if the high heeled feet of the S09 will work in the ACPlay kit's Boots?
If they at least look alright in them when the figure is laying on her side and if she could stand in them and not look goofy or fall over?
I'd also just like to see the head side by side with the S09 body in a pic to see just how different the skin tones are.

 

[screamingmetal]

These Phicen bodies are confusing as hell. I did some research and this is what I learned.

About the Phicen Steel skeleton Bodies:
All of these refer to the Suntan color only, This is Phicen's equivalent of Hot Toy's common flesh tone color sometimes referred to as Sunny Wheat on ebay. That's the closest color to the ACPlay Leia kit.

• The S06 & S09 are in Suntan color however they come with heads, the ones with letters at the end don't have heads (S02 & S05 have a head but in a different skin color FYI.).
• The S02A has Mid bust size and comes in the Suntan Color with non-removeable high heel posed feet.
• The S06B has a Large Bust size and comes in the Suntan Color with non-removeable high heel posed feet.
• The S09C is just the S06B with detailed genitalia (referred to as "woman's secret part") and comes in the Suntan Color with non-removeable high heel posed feet.
• The S12D has a Large bust and the only one in this early series that has removable feet and comes with both flat feet and high heel feet, it comes in the Suntan Color.

I should also add, that all of these come with Bikinis and 3 pairs of hands (total of 6 left and right hands).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now Phicen's newest release is the S17B. The S17B comes in a new off-colored "suntan" color. This is slightly lighter than the previous Phicen Suntan color and doesn't match those previous Suntan colors.

• The S17B is their newest version of their steel body with a Mid bust size, narrower shoulders, and comes with 2 pairs of hard plastic detachable feet in both high heel and flat feet (total of 4 left and right feet), a Bikini and 3 pairs of hands (total of 6 left and right hands).
• Just FYI, (The S16A is the same but in a different skin color, Pale and doesn't include a head).

Also, there's a more muscular and taller large bust version currently out there that's on the Phicen Spartan figure, This is way too big for Leia and too expensive and hard to come by at the moment but, it is in the original Phicen Suntan skin color.
I'm not sure about any of Phicen's previous releases.


[EDIT]: (Thanks to Maddog and Edwick at OSW for quickly answering my question, The Caroline Munroe Phicen body is the same as the S12D Large bust in Phicen's original Suntan skin color, it doesn't have proper feet but, boot molded high heel feet.)
I'm curious about the Caroline Monroe figure. It appears to have the original Phicen suntan colored body, steel skeleton, and removable feet that might possibly take the flat Phicen feet that's on the newest Phicen releases so might work better with the ACPlay boots, I'm just 100% unsure of the color and bust size of that body.
I hope this info helps people who are as confused about this as I am at the moment.

Thanks that helps a lot! I already ordered a body but will take this under advisement. I'm still trying to find a us distributor that has this in stock. Since its unlicensed I'm guessing they will churn out more if needed.

 

[rjszar]

Well, mine is apparently lost in the mail somewhere, so I don't have to worry about any of this.

Yeah, I tried that one yesterday, just for laughs. It's also used on the Sonja and Van Helsing (also in Lady Death white). If that is anyone's choice, you will need a longer string for the top. Leia's Death Stars stretch the string and hooks to their limits.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I'd watch ROTJ all the time if Leia looked like that.

Wow, yeah that's a fantasy version of Leia. It appears to accurately match the ACPlay Leia skin tone in that pic, does it look as close a match in person Mrhoss?
I looked into the Red Sonja release, and it's actually slightly lighter in skin tone than the Spartan. Is the Spartan or Red Sonja body being used in that pic?

 

[screamingmetal]

Nope. Crap. It either wasn't included, or it dropped off and rolled somewhere mysterious when I opened the package.

I'd love a permanent fix to the bra issue, though.

About the bra, I know you can partially reform soft plastic by heating it with a hairdryer or warm water, then make it into the shape you want with some kind of form (like using a rubberband to lightly press the plastic into shape around a steel bearing the right size and shape, just don't make the rubberbands too tight otherwise they might mar the plastic), and freeze that in the freezer. A short time later, remove the plastic and let it come up to room temperature on it's own and remove whatever you used to form it into shape.
One word of warning, I've noticed that if you heat up the plastic too much, you can make the plastic much harder when it's cool and the shape may warp.
Another option would be to glue a stiff metal band on the inside of the bra and force the metal band to conform to shape. I don't know if the metal could cut, damage, or mis color the Phicen silicon skin if it's in contact. Maybe place something softer inbetween the metal and skin to prevent damage like some cloth.

Skin match looks spot on. So which body is this? Is there a number or designation?

 

[rjszar]

Not sure you want to use that body. It is more endowed than the large breast version.

Leia looks like a tranny

 

[mrhoss]

Leia looks like a tranny

yeah, that body has muscular shoulders, thicker thighs and calves, narrower waist. Her face looks harsh in the photo. To be fair, to the actual head sculpt, none of my pics have been under good light.
Let me try to redeem myself . I don't think I posted these:

IMO, she has a very nice profile.

It's tough to get a really natural looking elbow bend:

 

[shells075]

^^ Nice, probably one of my earliest memories of being turned on was watching slave Leia in ROTJ.

 

[afattori]

It shouldn't be this hard to get a freaking body for a headsculpt!!!
