Re: Rainman Artwork 2013 NYC Cabbie "God's Lonely Man"

Bickle is going to be a cool fig, but youd have to have something EXTRA special to outdo The Butcher. I say this........

This would be incredible. Would be worth building a little diorama for to really capture that 2001 feel.

This would be his masterpiece for sure. Since the twitch squad debacle im surprised no one has had a new version of these.. can you imagine the DX version with the monolith?? lol
 
Re: Rainman Artwork 2013 NYC Cabbie "God's Lonely Man"

JOhnny seems to know him pretty well and suggests he was fed up with the stuff that goes on here. I hope that's not the case with this release, but. . .

Well I hope that this tension can subside soon because it's not solving anything. Him being angry with our disappointment is a catch 22.

I have high hopes for this release I am sure Rainman will come up with an excellent figure however the expectation is extremely high round here and I can't help but feeling it's gonna be almost impossible to live up to lol

All the fans naturally and rightfully have expectations; both of RM's ability and what we want the end product of a highly sort after iconic character like Bickle to be. I'm sure no one is expecting the stars and the moon. If it's on par with the best of his releases like Wonka, Dude, Doc, Plainview and Anton then I'm sure that will blow everyone away. If he comes into Bill territory then that there is lightning striking twice

Any opinions on the type of body to be used?

Bruce Lee body or trutype.......Neckless ball jointed or sculted neck?

Whats the feeling on this.
 
Re: Rainman Artwork 2013 NYC Cabbie "God's Lonely Man"

Hard to say. If Rainman goes with the final outfit (assuming he does) sculpted neck would be fine I think since he wears a white shirt underneath anyway. Then again that may limit it for those who want to pose him without the shirt, but are there many who will?

Re: Rainman Artwork 2013 NYC Cabbie "God's Lonely Man"

The shirtless look would be a great effort if he can make it happen. The sculpted neck has been done sooo many times before so I hope he tries somthing different. Shirtless with the gun harness would look great since there is also the idea of a DX fullhair sculpt.

At the very least I hope he decides on necklass ball jointed like Bill so that we can explore the option of using the bruce lee body for bashes or swaps seperate from the offering. The best part about this is the amount of variety it offers since we can always swap with a clothed Bickle

Personally, I have no interest in posing him shirtless. I love the look with the jacket.

Would love to see 2001 made.
To be honest bickle is iconic but been done already.
Thats just my opinion.
How many others would want to see and pay for a 2001 figure is another.

I'm totally up for 2001 and anything Kubrik really.

I may be in the minority but I'd love Dr. Bill in masquerade gear from Eyes Wide Shut, which is one of my top 5 or 10 all time favorite films.

Not sure about Dr Bill but for Kubrick id like to see Dr Strangeglove,Col Dax, and Jack Torrance (although hes been done).
 
Re: Rainman Artwork 2013 NYC Cabbie "God's Lonely Man"

It's official. I've got the word from Rainman to start the thread on the next upcoming project. Yes it's true! It will be Robert F'n Deniro as Travis Bickle from the cult classic Taxi Driver by Martin Scorcese! So step up and show your support. Lets help "The Man" make this the best release it can be!

Turbo if you will...........:wink1:

Would love that! Such a left field choice but would look great next to Alex.

2001 would be great. I'm probably the only one but I'd love an Alien figure from Spring Breakers.

Latest Word from Rainman, "I will make this the best figure like BILL!!!!":wave
