Sideshow need to get someone who can sculpt a decent likeness of Clint.

 

[FlyAndFight]

$275.00 at Sideshow.

Pass

Ordered.

 

[Johnny Utah]

That looks bloody awesome. Great work Sideshow. Now please make Will Munny!

 

[JacktheRipper]

This license must be expensive. It really comes with nothing. Those look like the same hands from the Blondie figure.

"Faux-leather bullet belt"

I don't have much faith that it will last for long. (checks the content of the "303 Protectant" bottle...)

I really wanted this figure. Not sure at that price, though. Add tax and shipping and it is over $300.00.

 

[JacktheRipper]

I'm a big fan of Clint's westerns, but I too am debating the price of this.
Clint approved this! At some angles it looks okay. Others...well...ugh. Those strands of hair sticking don't look that great.

 

[greatlakes6]

I am really unimpressed by the neck joint and the holster.

 

[Asta]

He's still got the baggy shirt collar.

And no dog collar at all?

The most glaring error of all, and something you expect from a cheapo bootlegger like Redman...

6' 3 1/2" Clint has been shrunk down to 6' !


Add the fact it's a Sideshow figure so you can't expect the sculpt paint quality to be close to the prototype, and this is an easy pass unless I can get it for free with rewards.

[abake]

I think it looks pretty effing fantastic.

 

[Life_m2000]

Looks great! But that price for a barebones figure is a bit mad.

 

[Omega9300]

Yeah, this has some errors/omissions I guess but overall I think this is a great looking figure! Although the sculpt may not be perfect IMO there is no doubt as to who this is supposed to be. And his clothes look very nicely done.

When I was 17 I had a job at at theatre in CA while Pale Rider was on its run so I saw this film a lot. It did remind me of High Plains drifter a lot as someone mentioned before (one of my favorite Clint Eastwood films) but has its own appeal.

All of the figures in my collection are super heroes (mostly Marvel), but I am seriously thinking of getting this figure. I will have to find a different location or area to put him I suppose but it seems like a small inconvenience to have a figure like this while Clint Eastwood is still with us.

I kind of have a soft spot for Clint Eastwood. Politics etc. aside I think he is a good man and has made some great films. One of the first movies I can remember going to with my parents as a child was The Outlaw Josey Wales (1975 or 1976), it has remained as one of my favorite movies of all time.

So I almost feel compelled to get this figure. If my dad were still alive I would certainly buy him one as a gift since he was a big fan.

agreed. It is almost a crime to pay these prices, as the hobby will only getting more and more expensive this way if everything sells...I understand if this is a holy grail for you, but otherwise I wish people wouldn't pay every price manufacturers are demanding these days.

 

[R_R_X]

Even tho it could do with some improvements it seems like it's better than Blondie? I would love to add some old school western Clint figures to the collection but there's no way of knowing how these will turn out with Sideshow, I'll wait.

I reckon so.

I reckon so.

What you did there…
