Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

Sculpt looks great but the eyes detail throws it off a bit for me, they look like Sith eyes from Star Wars and it makes him look almost like the Emperor. The expression is perfect though, that faint smile really captures his nature.
 
Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

i want the mask and the gurney~!!!....i'm in for this one!!!...skipped on a few since the demon but this has brought me back!!!....space trucker also but this is a definite!!!
 
Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

I'd be very happy with the blue jail suit but I want the orange jumper/straight jacket too. Maybe the decided against it because the "crazy cart" is hard to pull off (working wheels, straps, etc). To finish that look properly you'd need the cart, straight jacket, orange suit, and mask. If they offer that whole mix as an expansion pack, I'd be all over it to get both looks.

The blue jumpsuit is ok but too Myers for me. If we want the mask, the orange jumpsuit is kind of pivotal. Also you can have the holding cel/lamb dinner white outfit for underneath. Blood stains being optional or to be custom added later. The Cart is a plus but I wouldnt die without it. Plus knowing Robbies mad skills that will be a no brainer for him to tackle if he was so inclined!
 
Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

Yeah, as I'm thinking more about this, even without the cart, the orange might be preferable considering that he's gonna be posed with the mask on. But if you want to pose him sans mask, blue is definitely the way to go IMO. Not only is it more screen accurate, but it makes him look less like a common criminal since the orange jumpsuit is more conventional prison attire. Seems like a pretty basic dye-job though, anyway. Maybe Denny could give buyers the option of which color they wanted?
 
Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

The blue jumpsuit is the more screen present costume, and despite the difference in film time, character wise, Lecter is the same age in Red Dragon and Lambs, so it would make the figure representative of multiple films.

looking good would like the mask, orange jump suit, straight jacket and gurney would be awesome.

I think from the nose up, this looks great. The mouth needs some serious work though. The smile is far too extreme, not subtle enough. But this is looking great :rock

Blue Jumpsuit FTW!

True the blue is Myers but still iconic. It's what he's in the majority of this movie and the next as Maulfan pointed out. I like it's versatility to pose him however also. The orange suit, straight jacket, mask & gurney (thank you Levit :lol) can only be displayed one way. It’s more like a mini PF than a fig. I do definitely want that look also though. I wish Denny would offer both outfit options because I would even buy an extra sculpt (or use a VIP slot) to make 2 full figures. Especially if Robbie says he'll do the gurney. That boy has been showin' off his skills lately!

So blue suit is my 1st choice (versatility), orange suit/mask/straight jacket is my second choice (iconic). I do hope we can get both. I like the white outfit lamb din din look but I don't think is the best option for a V1 figure. Short sleeves shows elbow joints, the most plain and basic of all 3 outfits and only works if its blood splattered with a bloody faced sculpt to match.

The white outfit can easily be added to the figure just by offering white pants and shoes. The shirt is arguably the same white t-shirt he wears the whole time in the blue jumpsuit, and if not, it would work like that just fine in figure form.

:exactly::lecture:goodpost:

I will only buy this figure if he comes with blue jumpsuit. That was our first introduction to him and the lasting memory I have of him.
 
Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

Wish Iminime would offer this version. Nothing screams Dr. Lector more than the Mask, Jacket and Gurney. But I doubt that they'll put forth an effort and do the gurney, mask, straight jacket.

Slick back blue jumper is cool though. The good thing about it is you can create a killer glass cell in a detolf!

Very cool.....willing to see how this comes along and will be looking to purchase this of course with final product pictures to make that decision.
 
Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

I think the whole deal with the gurney doesn't have much to do with how much effort they'd put into it, because we all know that they have the talent to create it. It has a lot more to do with how much this set would cost if they included it. I have no doubt that they can skill the mask. If they used a better quality strap, the mask that they made for their Ra's would've been a HT quality accessory.

If your a company like HT who has your own factory that mass produces and works with ABS, then you can justify paying for the very expensive metal molds that it takes to make something like the gurney. Medicom didn't even include it with their straight jacket/orange suit Lecter. I have the Neca fig that Turbo posted in that pic. It has a working "kick stand" with two little wheels on it. I don't know enough about the screen used prop, but if the Neca one is close to accurate, this would be pretty expensive to be made at a quality level in 1/6 (Hollywood Collectibles Group didn't include the kick stand on their statue but I believe Neca got it right with it).

I'd like to see it made at a solid quality level, and I'd happily pay the price for it. If Iminme doesn't want to touch it, I still hope that they'd do the orange suit and he mask. Then hopefully Robbie (or another capable genius) would step in. But if Robbie has to charge $75 for a satchel and $125 for a backpack for it to make sense for him to do, just think what this would cost. I'm still 100% in for it, but I'm just saying.
 
Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

Well if were going blue jump suit only, hope this is a cheaper figure. There's not much to offer otherwise. :dunno
 
Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

I agree. I was thinking what accessories the blue suit calls for and I can't think of anything aside from his books, paintings or the contract to "anthrax island", which are pretty wak :lol. Maybe the paintings could be cool
 
Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

Perhaps they'll include multiple portraits.
 
Re: WIP Pics Updated! [iminime] Dr. Cannibal - Lambs to the Slaughter

My feeling is if Iminime is trying to make a push towards being the next Blitzway or Enterbay then why not focus on making a great quality, well researched product. It's a team of sculptors with great art direction from one of the best 1/6 sculptors around. They obviously don't come off as a smaller operation the likes of some of our beloved custom artists, who by the way are pushing the hobby's limits farther then any big corporate business, and doing it with no budget at all. I know nothing is set in stone about what this release will include, and I like that Denny gets his customers involved the process, but I'm afraid we are going to get the 'ol we can't do it because of production schedules. They can make these things and offer them at a decent pricepoint or at least change their business model up and offer certain accessories seperate, that way you give your customer options (i.e the Alien outfit offering is a good start). Some people only collect accessories. Its still a way to conect to the character or represent some of your interests. I think people can pick up on what a 1/6 gurney is supposed to represent when they get a clear view of an overall collection.

It all feels too watered down and it's hurting the real attraction I had with 1/6 to begin with. The fine detail accessories BRING OUT the figure! 1/6 is about focus on detail. The kind of stuff that makes you go back to the film and say "Holy Crap, I can't believe they got that detail" or better yet when we catch ourselves staring at an amazing figure and saying "How the hell did they manage to do that?"
