Rainman's Projects... ^L^

[Hydeous]

Just get a padded underwear like subways jack torrance for the bl3's legs. Ht wolverine looks a bit 2 big again.

No shirt, no rings and no shoes then, I suppose?

 

[6joker9]

True that. Just got an unpainted sculpt, looking to have it painted battle damaged.

 

[wofford29]

Since this is a Rainman's Projects thread is there any hints or word on what the next one might be?

tyler durden v2

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Yep, end scene Tyler.

Then I am hoping for an Alex De Large.

 

[Raymond F.]

I'd like Rainman or someone for that matter to offer at last a Norton Fight Club Had before anything else. We really need this. With Tyler Durdan alone we only have 50% of the equation.

What about the Hot Toys head can anyone at least modify and recast those? All he needs is his goatee removed and his head painted to b beat up.

I disagree. Pitt's Tyler works fine as a stand alone piece. And, if anything he's 33% as Marla is just as important to the equation. The Norton costume and design are purposefully boring and plain and I don't think Rainman should devote his time and talent to a boring and plain character design when there are so many exciting ones that can challenge Rainman.

 

[mosaicsquare]

its not really exciting to have two versions of pitt. as far as modding the ht head ive talk to someone already he's pretty awesome and you've all seen his work before but hes going to give a shot after he does most of his piled up work.

 

[Entropy]

Exciting for me.

But esthetically the character designs themselves - clothes, hair, accessories - are all very dynamic, unique, memorable and challenging to produce. Norton's 'guy in a suit' not so much.

I hope you don't take this into offense but if all you're thriving for is unique and challenging then why not commission a McCauley Culkin figure from Party Monsters or a Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs.

I totally get what you're saying about wanting more out of a release from Rainman but I'd rather have a complete set with Norton rather than two Pitts. Also it would make for a great contrast on the shelf having the boring Norton on one side and the dynamic and unique Pitt on the other. It would really express the duality of the Tyler Durden character. Also just because its a suit and not a fur coat and graphical dress shirts doesn't mean it can't be challenging. I have yet to see anyone release a professional tailored suit that looks as amazing as Harue's release.

As far as Marla being 33% of the equation I would definitely think not. The plot doesn't really revolve around her character much. Granted yes she annoyed Norton and slept with Pitt.... okay.

So I am going to agree to disagree with you on the Norton character being a complete waste.

 

[Entropy]

Just not true. You're missing a lot if you think so. She's integral and the lynchpin of the whole story. But no point in explaining.

And confusing dynamic character design with great character is easy to do. Characters such as Alex De Large have both and Rainman should focus on those.

 

[mosaicsquare]

right on alex d large!..... but hes offering v2 durden which to an extent is disapointing to me

 

[Hydeous]

To be honest, I'm more interested in getting a v2 durden than a norton. But as a completist of fight club, I'd totally get any character that rainman produces, be it marla or any other 'unimportant' character like angel face (jared). So yeah, either way we as the fans win

I REALLY hope that the next character that rainman gonna make is scarface.

Hes next on my most wanted list, after tyler durden.

Chances are that we prolly not gonna see HT gettin the license, as pacino doesnt approve his likeness to be made onto toys, games etc. Although if HT gets the license, we can already see that they gonna give us the "TM" chair, cigar, and all those other goodies with the fig ala godfather

 

[mosaicsquare]

really al pacino? sideshow made some so did how2works and if ur picky me like me Feng has awesome sculpts to accomadate.

Vincent Hanna

Old Michael

Young Michael

Tony Montana

Even Kojun made Vincent Hanna and Carlito

 

[wofford29]

tyler durden v2

I meant after the Fighter series figures. As in the next figure that isn't from Fight Club or Brad Pitt.

 

[mosaicsquare]

then nothing. i dont think he's ever announced more than one project at a time.

I think feng's work as brilliant as it is, its too smooth and lacks that human skin texture that rainman, kojun has thats more in tune with my HT stuffs.

That montana is an ace though, and with a molded neck, it'd be almost perfect.

I'd totally get any of kojun's pacino, just that I dont know where to get one My only chance to own a decent pacino, as scarface, right now will be from rainman.

 

[Hydeous]

If he decides to do a tony montana scarface, I can already sense the line is probably gonna be named as something like gangster1983, yeyodealer1983 or something

you've never own any of feng's work before have you? his paint and skin texture is amazing in hand. just ask ray he'll tell you.

as for the neck issue thats a preference. I'm sure if you made the right offer to Feng he will make you a headsculpt without the molded neck so you can put it on a soldier story/ or truetype body with a molded neck.

Kojun's Pacinos are long soldout you'll have to come across an auction.

Hate to burst your bubble but I don't think Rainman can top any of the above Pacinos nor should he waste his time trying to do it. If he was to move on from the Fight Club series he should definitely visit characters that aren't overdone by other artists. I.E. Alex D' Large, William Blake, Bill the Butcher, Yojimbo/Sanjuro, among others.

 

[Hydeous]

nope.

Actually, rainman's tyler is my first custom, as I dont really like the waiting part

got any links to feng's montana? is he still offering these?

I'd shell out decent amount of $ for a kojun pacino, if I could find one
