Sideshow Tim Curry Pennywise Sixth Scale Figure

[Mr. Awesome]

Friggin figure is out this world.

Look at those sculpts. This thing just continues to impress the hell out of me.

Really impressive figure. I still stand by my thoughts that this is probably Sideshow’s best figure to date. I’ve been harsh on them in the past but I really think they nailed Pennywise.

haven't opened mine yet, the problem for me is that i dont think i have enough space to use the balloons. from your guy's pics, it looks like 15-16 inches vertically from feet to top balloon. about to buy a display case just for this figure, maybe the apextime cases.

Until Pennywise I rated Josey Wales as the best Sideshow figure I owned. Whereas the Eastwood line tended towards caricature, Josey less so, Pennywise has a greater level of realism. It really sells itself as Tim Curry as It. The teeth are particularly well done.

The fanged sculpt is equally good, though I didn't test it on the figure because the smiling one strikes me as more sinister: the essence of creepy clown rather than full on monster.

Even the clothes are better than I was expecting. It's a ridiculously goofy costume, and was an aspect that I wasn't sure I'd get to like because in photos it looked awkward. Yet in hand it works, not only because the material feels good quality, but due to his body and legs being thoroughly padded the clothes keep their form.

Unlike Trick or Treat's Art the Clown with his thin silky outfit that tends to sink into his body, and is hard to futz on a figure that's meant to be skinny.

damn shame the collar got shrunk between the proto and production, I cant tell if that's whats making the head so huge in person or if the head grew like typical hot toys fashion.

and as any mass produced figure to come with rooted hair, there's a whole lot and ton of hair with this guy

easily wouldve given this figure a 7/10 or even 7.5 easily if the collar was kept like how it was in the proto. heads are easy to fix or change, clothes.. not so much

How did you get the hair looking that good? Amazing photos!

I find the hair tricky to work with.

It moves very easily and stays where you put it, but the problem is knowing what to do with it. I've been adjusting it by gently pushing from underneath, and it 'plumps' up into the more rounded shape. I also tried to raise the height at the back but I think Sideshow placed the hair to low to get the 'halo' effect in the series.

It's very easy to accidentally mess it up, especially when the balloon hand decides to swivel and I rush to catch the loose yellow balloon.

I don't know how that hand/wrist will hold up over time. There's a sweet spot where stays, but like the hair it doesn't take much to move it. It feels like a miracle every time I'm able to set it with the balloons upright and stable.

The crotch grabber doesn't do the costume any favours as it messes up the natural fall of the suit, but I can't do without it.

its still too thick for my liking, I used a brush and one of those fleece combs for pets. a fine comb will do too. i removed a lot of hair already and there is still a lot left over. if I can get it thinner to a more manageable level, ill be content.

i used a little bit of hair spray (firm) and used a brush to brush it on and reshape areas
