TBLeague 1/6 Egyptian Gods line

[Sardo Numspa]

I couldn't seem to find any threads on these, so I thought I'd try to start one. So far, they have released Anubis (twice), and Horus is just starting to get to collectors in-hand. Only today did I see the pre-order for Ra show up on different sites. YouTuber "Marshall Made Collectibles" has been in direct contact with TBLeague about this line, and they are intending to do a line of male and female Gods, so certainly lots of potential! Great price point as well, as they are in the @$150-$180 range.
I have Anubis in-hand, and I have to say, these really are high quality figures, particularly if you're into Egyptian mythology. They have also begun a 1/12 lineup. Here are the 1/6 releases (and pre-releases) so far:

Anubis - Guardian of the Underworld (rereleased once already, getting harder to find)

The male figures so far all seem to use the M35 body. But excellent detail on the 2 headsculpts that come with each figure, as well as in the costume details.

I am a little disappointed that they are releasing so many falcon-headed figures so far (to be honest, I've never heard of "Month" and feel like she might be made up), but at the same time, they are obviously trying to maintain cost/profit at this point.
Considering that they are apparently working on Bastet (cat-headed female deity) and considering Sobek (crocodile-headed male deity) and Osiris (more of a traditional human looking god), this could be a really cool lineup.

I've also added links to a few reviews of Anubis and Horus:

Even though I find these very cool I'm not too interested in them. They are releasing a proper barbarian but I don't like the head sculpt. I hope they plan on releasing a more traditional long haired barbarian with a sword and 2 headed axe, loin cloth, and boots.

 

[BACON!]

I pre-ordered the Month figure cuz it looks so cool, although I know nothing of the mythology of this character

 

[Mr Walker]

It should be Monthu IIRC, god of war.

 

[Sardo Numspa]

It should be Monthu IIRC, god of war.

Monthu I have heard of, and yes is a falcon-god, but is also male. Ah well, they look really cool anyway, I'll likely get the whole line. One of the few properties where my wife wouldn't mind if they were displayed outside of my "collection area".

I just saw Osiris and Horus II listings - Osiris comes with hoof feet and a green variant, and Horus II comes with wings and pillar display stand.
Hooves are something I've wanted for customs purposes for a while, has any other figure had them?

My first three 1/6 figures were TBLeague/Phicen figures; two of them were Horus and Month. I’m paying down Anubis and Ra at Sideshow with both the green Osiris and newly listed Bastet on preorder at BBTS. I’d like to put together a big fantasy, ancient Egyptian pantheon display, until then they’ll slumber in their cardboard sarcophagi.

I think they’re great! The sculpting on the heads, hands and feet are great. Their bird head eyes can be a bit wonky seeing them from the front, but they look great in profile and 3/4 view. My only complaint (which is common for TBLeague figures, I think) is that their fleshy silicone bodies make it difficult to slip armor and costume pieces on. The trick seems to be wrapping a bit of scotch tape on the area under the armor accessories, but I’ve just using small strips of unbleached white muslin.

I also bought Month before discovering that canonically Monthu should be male. It’s a little disappointing but hasn’t discouraged my interest in the line.

I love the aesthetic and as my 1/6 collection grows I’m leaning heavily towards non-cinematic figures and original IPs. Starting my 1/6th collection with TBLeague figures has spoiled me a bit. The bodies are so hefty and solid, and they hold their poses so well!

And reading in this thread that there are plans for the Crocodile headed Sobek? Count me in! I’d love to see them tackle deities in other pantheons eventually- namely I’d like to see a Ganesha!

I discovered this line only last week while browsing at an online store looking for an HT Marty McFly 2.0 to pre-order, but was more impressed by these Egyptian gods figures, they are absolutely gorgeous! All figures are still available but they don't have the gold versions, only silver. Osiris gold and silver both sold out. And the prices are now higher, wish I found out about this sooner. They now have Ramses for PO but more interested on the deities. I stay away from figures with silicone, pleather, rubber and any degrading material but these figures are just too pretty to pass up.

 

[user 15061]

Have Anubis in 1/6 and 1/12 scale, Silver Horus and Gold Ra.
Absolutely love the figures. Only nit is weak ankles so had to pick up some bases, maybe will get the ones that come with the new Anubis and Horus, when they get parted out

I just received my Anubis! His body was a little scuffed up; a molding issue I think. Luckily his collar covers up the spot (I’d rather avoid any back and forth to get a replacement).

You’re definitely right about the weak ankles. I think the male TBLeague bodies are just too top heavy to stay balanced without ankle support.

I have Month and she was able to hold her standing pose without support for a couple nights before Horus knocked her over. Anubis’ base and stand has been a godsend.

(Some other female TBLeague figures I have also balance well.)

I’m going to skip out on Ramses and Pharoah Tutankhamun. I ordered Bastet in black and Osiris in green. I’m excited to see how strange Osiris will look not only because of the green skin but he’ll be the only human headed figure in the group!

Every version of Osiris is still available for preorder at BBTS, if that’s an option for you.

 

[Buttmunch]

It’s definitely an interesting line and probably one I would have collected had there not been so many options to choose from or so many figures hitting too quickly. Some of these figures have not one, not two, but three versions to choose from in some cases. I appreciate the options but for me is almost worst to have so many different versions rather than just one to pick from. I feel there are ones that look much better one way (Tut in white) and then others look fine in either look, which makes choosing more difficult IMO. Hats off to anyone that collects all of the versions.

I definitely understand that drive to collect them all, but I’m pretty satisfied with having just one colorway of each deity (seems like TBLeague offers multiple colors of every one of their original character releases; six different colored versions of their upcoming 1/12 Imperial Guardian).

I am disappointed that they announced a new version of Horus so soon. I would have absolutely preferred to get the new winged version.

I don’t think these figures sell out super quickly so I still might pick up Horus 2 if he’s still available from retailers next year, and then I could use the Horus 1 body for a custom.

Thanks for the tip! Yeah, was looking for silver Osiris but I found out he's originally green-skinned so I'll go with that. The only things TBLeague got wrong are the horns, hoofed feet and Christian cross on his belt, it should be an Ankh. But gorgeous figure nonetheless. I'll get Bastet too, the only one available here is white. Then will get Horus 2, Anubis gold. Hopefully they will release Isis, Hathor and Sobek (crocodile god). I already got gold Ra. These figures will look great next to the pre-ordered Suicide Squad King Shark.

I think TBLeague leaned in pretty hard with the shepherd imagery for Osiris, which would explain the sheep horns and hooves. Taking a closer look at the photos, I think his staff might actually be a shepherd’s crook with an ornamental, stylized sheep skull on the bend on top.

I completely missed his belt until you mentioned it! I don’t have any guesses why they went with a cross, since the other costume details are covered in ankhs.

I’d love to see their take on Sobek! Or what they might do with a less defined dog/jackal/beast head for Apophis. There’s a celestial cow deity named Nut (pronounced newt, I believe) and while she’s usually depicted as just a cow made of stars, I think TBLeague could have some fun with a cow head on female form and some sort of night sky/star patterned gown and cape.

If they don’t release a Sobek within the next year, I think I’m going to replace Horus with the new winged Horus and use the body to customize my own Sobek! Mostoys recently released a series of 1/6 crocodile heads,
Pre-order 1/6 MOSTOYS M2024 Crocodile Head Sculpt HW/NeckE

 

[Sardo Numspa]

That's an interesting idea... I'm going to wait to see if they do Sobek. All of their heads have either interesting headdresses or some form of "armor" , so I can't wait to see what they would do with Sobek. Personally, although I did pre-order a green Osiris, I wish the shade of green was darker. Also, although I think I see what they were going for, I would have preferred a skinnier body for Osiris. Just to differentiate him further from the group. I pre-ordered Bastet in white to maintain the look of the ones I've collected so far. GREAT line!

 

[gin007]

An interesting idea but will need some big alterations to fit the head on a seamless body.

 

[Cajun Predator]

Anyone knows if they are making all the 1/6 versions in 1/12 scale?

 

[Vkh]

TBLeague has announced the crocodile headed Sobek in black and white versions! It’s available for preorder on BBTS for $189.99.

I was hoping to see Sobek! The strange thing is that all the photographs of the white version have him with an open mouth while the black costume version shows him with a closed mouth.

There isn’t any mention of an articulated/hinged head sculpt so I’m wondering if the portraits are static and unique to each version. The Phicen website describes only “1x Head sculpt with fixed headdress.”

That would be disappointing since I want the roaring crocodile head but so far all my TBLeague Egyptian Deities are wearing black fabric costumes.
