Resident Evil Customs Thread

[potato]

Thought I'd hop into this thread. Big Resident Evil fan, I'm hoping to put together figures of major characters that currently aren't available, or are available but are absurdly expensive.

Chris, Barry and Wesker in STARS uniforms is my primary target: a head for each has been obtained, same with a body and some accessories, but crikey are those vests hard to find: I've been searching up and down the internet for years for cheap ones - I'm a budget kitbasher and ain't spending 50 odd smackers for a single vest - but to no avail. Enter however the MoeToys STARS Wesker set. Where in the blue flip did that thing go? I've never saw pictures of it in-hand, and all that Google finds is a blog post or two, an AliExpress listing that says it's in stock but upon clicking is unavailable. There is a listing on TaoBao, consisting of the clothes only, for 670 Yuan (about £70.). Can be dyed for other characters but I've no clue if it's trustworthy to order. Anybody ordered it there before? Hell, did anyone manage to get one at all? It's very strange because even back when it first came around in 2015, I was never able to track down a place to buy it.

if you are looking for the vest you can still get them from 3rd party Stars Chris.

search for 1/6 ZC Toys Chris Redfield on ebay you will get many results. no separate for the vest but i think Barry shares many components as Chris just need to dye them.

Although my search for proper STARS vests continues - I'd rather not have to buy whole figures! - I have managed to find an alternative: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Res...&terminal_id=d76a2ab92a03413482122a40ed583d84

Quite cheap, made of a weird vinyl and perhaps more suited to an old GI Joe, but I reckon they might be worth a try, could look good with a touch of weathering and application of the neccesary slings and holsters. They're pretty accurate though they lack the STARS lettering. Perhaps a good chance at a decent STARS vest for someone.

i don't know. it probably won't last long but if the underside is fabric you may just remove the top layer and dye them.

but remember if you buy the full figure you solve all the outfit issues for Barry. the shirt & pants for Wesker is different though.

My quest has managed to bring up this steal: https://www.direct-pivot.top/momtoy...chris-redfield-male-action-figure-p-8005.html

A mere 44 bucks for the MomToys Chris Redfield. The site seems very dodgy and I can't find much about it online, but it'd be an elaborate scam with the number of products on it. It's there should anybody like to take a bullet for the team!

I'll most likely just give in and buy full Chris figures when I eventually have the funds - got a potentially nice job coming up in a month or two. I'm sure the spare Chris-exclusive parts can be sold to recuperate the costs, too.

unbelievable price. since you are taking the risk might as well buy 2?

Is there any word on this statue or its validity?
There doesnt seem to be a solid way to preorder it anywhere...

 

[dycegamez]

PLAY-ASIA had it

Preorders closed there...
only one that seems available is from this site:
https://www.fanaticanimestore.com/pre-order-green-leaf-studio-1-4-zombie-crisis-huntresscrstatue/

but it seems a little suspect.

I'm thinking of ordering her through this site. Any thoughts? https://www.senseitoy.com/. The guy promised me it was the genuine statue and not a recast or bootleg.

I would think theyre all bootlegs given that Green Leaf Studios doesnt even have the licensing or even its own website.
Regardless, I have no idea if either of these sites are remotely dependable. And I dont believe we would have paypal protection...
