Possible commision thread for Spock, Kirk and Mc Coy by Chris Howes!

I'm also fine with the size.

I don't have any pictures that include the full figure. But from other real life pictures that I have seen, they are about right, in my opinion. But if you really think it is out of scale. Please let me know asap. Because I want to get these out of the way by tomorrow.

Not saying they are out of scale, just that I wasn't sure. I'm so used to using the Playmates 9" scale phasers, which I always thought were about as dead on as could be, until this project started. I'm good with whatever everyone else thinks.

Look fine to me.
So phaser type 1 will detach from type 2?

Yes Sir. Type 1 can detach from Type 2! Isn't this nice?

Chris...where are you? Hope you are just busy not something else...

From what I've heard, Chris is a completely trustworthy guy, so I wouldn't be too worried. Of course it sucks that we've had no direct update on the status of his commissions, but I suppose that is the nature of the beast.
On the other hand, for those who haven't paid him yet and don't want to keep waiting indefinitely, there's always the option of the SFM sculpts. There's Spock and who knows, maybe the others will follow eventually.

I do believe this will put some extra pressure on Chris to at least give us an update, he could lose customers quickly for this project. What worries me, is that if he loses too many customers he might back out of the deal...

And then some of us might be left empty-handed.

Damn, now I'm worried.

EDIT: 16k, I just noticed on the first post that I'm not listed as having paid, but Chris already has my payment for all three heads which I sent via MO. Could please update that info? Thanks.

He may be trustworthy but I find it rude not to tell us what is going on until we pressure him to tell us! And I am thinking of backing out of the Spock sculpt to get the SFM sculpt that is being offered now.

 

[JeffTVR]

Am I too late to come in to this, at least for the accessories and clothes?

 

[SpawnFan]

I think nanjin is having some extras made up of the accessories and clothes, you should PM him.

I sent him an email asking him to give us a realistic update on ETA for the Star trek and RE Milla sculpts. Hopefully he'll answer soon.

Where can I order SFM sculpts?

It's only Spock for now, but if that sells well they might release the other sculpts as well.

I want to make the captain's chair in 1/6. Any info available out there?

Email me.

Me too!!! The captain needs his chair.

 

[JediMike71]

An original series Captain's chair in 1/6 scale for Captain Kirk would be perfect! Of course then we'd all eventually want a TOS Enterprise bridge display in 1/6 scale too.

That would be the next step. A 1/6 bridge diorama, would be a great scene for these figures.

1/6 heads, 1/6 accessories, 1/6 chair, 1/6 bridge diorama, the only next logica step is 1/6 Enterprise.

All of these have been done, well, except for the Enterprise.

If my calculations are right a 1/6 Enterprise would be 160' long. I think I can live without that (or live within it, if I had one).
