Resident Evil Customs Thread

[kfcolt1911]

As previously stated, LIM is focused on getting products shipped and casting other 1/6 projects to be announced, so the priority right now isn't on 1/12 figures.
I believe Patriot Studios released a 1/12 RE4 Leon, if you really want one.

Patriot studios killed it with the chainsaw releases but their RE4 Leon is massively inaccurate imo, I held off waiting for lims so this is disappointing news.

Appreciate the reply tho, I must have missed when it was previously stated

Don't wanna rain on your parade but something feels off here...
I think it's Leons cup size...

I got an instant headache. Took me a while to figure out what was going on (it’s 5AM so I’m half asleep)

InArt's 1/12 figures will be entirely or mostly sculpted, kind of like Mafex or SHF.

They were smart in not pursuing clothed 1/12 figures as they are more expensive to produce and aren't received as well as sculpted figures because 1/12 collectors don't like how the clothes restrict articulation and most of them don't really want to own a "mini 1/6 figure" they want a toy, and InArt's strategy will be offering toys but with much better sculpting and paint.

As far Leon, I believe it's from RE2 remake but I could be wrong. Someone told me it's because InArt likes making figures that have already been done by other brands so they have a physical product to draw from themselves and so collectors can inevitably compare the two figures to show how superior their version is. I believe this is more of a personal opinion than anything.

Always love to hear a story/bts rumor from you.
At SE Asia, Clothed figure with soft goods didn't sell out like it used to be, 1/6 or 1/12. People prefer to pay an overpriced mafex or shf (those d*mn exclusive web). It's like most of people didn't know what they want, buy what majority/trend love atm.
Explains why inart prefer 1/12 plastic toys

Hmm although the buck teeth arent my favorite. It’s still miles ahead of whatever this is.

Got a Hot Toys STARS Chris. Swapped the base body for a Terminator body with more muscle-girth and replaced the pants as they were too small. Not the right color, but they remind me of this image

Also had to repaint the wrist on the right hand as the paint bubbled up and flaked off with very light scratching. I've seen this same issue happen before on the right hands of other STARS Chris figures. Must've been a factory issue.

seems like the SuperDuck Ada boots don’t foot the WorldBox body at all, so you’ll have to settle for a phicen

Are the pegs too big or too small? If its too small you can wrap some tape around it to make it thicker.

Nah, they don’t fit around the shins and thighs so the zipper can break if you try

I've not tried a Worldbox body yet, but maybe you could pop the legs off and swap with another body, if you're liking the upper proportions of the Worldbox otherwise?

Phicen seems like a waste when there are no joints exposed at all IMO.

 

[zexion_armando]

Maybe. I hadn’t considered though. I just don’t know any other jointed bodies to use in its stead

A cheap poptoys body probably works. Most third party companies use copies of this body. I think its based on the 2012 avengers black widow. Its petite and not very curvy. I bet the boots will fit on that.

You can also use an exacto knife and remove part of her calf. But thats pretty drastic.

Even a standard HT female body. My MT Ada is using the Sylvie body. Using a phicen body is a waste of body for a fully covered body, plus she would tower over Leon. Lol

Still a really nice figure, even after all these years. My ZCToys one was done up with HT parts (the vest, knife and pads) by it's previous owner and they really make it look like he's stepped out of a Gamecube and onto my shelf.

Why the HT RE stuff hasn't been copied constantly by third parties I don't know.

Yeah, really surprising the parts haven't been copied - maybe too difficult/costly to be worth it I guess...

I really liked the ZCToys Chris, starved for options though I was when I got him. I just wish his headsculpt didn't have monkey ears for some reason. Had to update for a 3rd party RE5 Chris head, but I think he looks good all things considered.
