Rainman Artwork 2013 NYC Cabbie "Driver"

[Bullet]

Damn Pop, I'm sorry to hear you missed out

Considering the double fulls, regular full sets, and head/outfit sets for, really both figures that won't have the gun slide, I think there's a definite market for it if some customizer is willing to give it a shot. Maybe even make it to fit the Bruce Lee arms instead of the TTM-21s?

I'd be in I can't resist Robbies work haha

Wow these sold out quick! Congrats Rainman!
A little nervous for H&C now.

True...H+C already gets me nervous...can't imagine what you guys go through on the DX and FS...

I just want one Soldier H+C set...(and a painted Driver sculpt)...hopefully I can do this...last time took me 3 devices to finally get my order through... Thursday will suck for me...

Now everyone wants the gunslide!!! :

Already got the DX on the way but we all know how good Robbies version would be (should he have the time and want to do one)

I think everybody did from the start - just not for the price that was thrown around of $300

Again, I'm not sure there was ever any doubt that collectors would want it. The conflict (as I remember) seemed to be over whether or not Rainman should be bugged into making one. Pretty essential accessory for the end of film look IMO.

--edit: and Marlin is right. $300 vs. $100 is a a pretty dang big difference

 

[Bullet]

Pretty sure it was the predicted 300 buck price difference between the double FS and DX which put many off myself included. Soon as I saw it was only an additional 100 bucks was a no brainer

Ok, chiming in on the torsos. I think there was discussion before about the color mismatch. Was there a decision made? They will come painted? And 2 per each DX and Double Fullset. Plus each full set and H&C. That's a lot of painting besides the heads. Has anyone mention to Rainman, about color matching the torsos with the arms or are we left to figure out how to paint the arms we will use. The mismatch in my opinion will take away from the effect of using the torso. Sorry if this was discussed before. Just wondering.

uhmm...regarding this....those prices that we received were from people that said they were in the "know"....which was 1200 for DFS and 1500 for Super DX.....if we technically do the math....we actually paid 200 instead of 300....i say that because RM upped 100 to the DFS and brought down the Super DX by 100 to 1400....so he really only brought it down 100...lol...smart move....the "illusion" got me too..LMAO

yeah i get it...but i would love some return correspondence from RM with this last detail...atleast acknowledging that he sees the difference

I noticed that, but as I thought more about it, I'm not sure he should try to color match with the body. The TT body is a lot darker than Bickle actually was, so unless he were to paint the TT arms and hands I think the best solution was what he did--just getting the head and torso to match pretty well.

You make a good point!

For me though, there was another issue of uncertainty in that I thought there was only going to be one set of pants/belt/shoes (maybe guns?) per "double full" and DX set. Once the full prices/sets were revealed and we saw it was essentially 2 complete figures (minus one body) plus gun slide for $1,400, that price became much more desirable to my eyes.

Content and satiated after their quarterly massacre and feeding of "the RM", the hideously disfigured beasts retire to their respective lairs, having absorbed the blood, sweat, and juices of their prey. Now bloated beyond recognition and grotesque to the core, these creatures prepare for their long dormant rest and ongoing scheming of ways to inflict maximum carnage to the next quarter's prey. Meanwhile, from beneath the rocks, lesser shadows emerge, eagerly and anxiously picking away at the remaining skulls and skin of they massacred RMs, while all the time watching their backs for the sudden return of the ever-so-hungry maniacs, hoping that they themselves may be fast enough to scrounge up a RM feast from the scrappy remains, and thus one day becoming worthy of their greater kin.

Not all of us are satisfied Vareika. I'm about to go on a rampage in 2 days.
