Re: Die Hard

A 1/6 HT's or Sideshow PF would be bought yesterday! No brainer purchase imo. I LOVE the Die Hard movies.

Re: Die Hard

One of the great, all time action movies in my opinion. I have several of the Palz figures, and this is my favorite:

Yeah, I just got a bunch of them sealed in their baggies for 3 bucks each. They were a pleasant surprise and the attention to detail is fantastic. I couldn't believe the picture and frame Holly came with.

I have regular Tony but Ho-Ho-Ho Tony looks really cool, I'll try and track him down.

I was interested in the Dirty Johnny figure, but couldn't justify the cost. It would be great if Hot Toys will pick up the license to do a couple figures down the road, but I'm not holding my breath on that one.

Yeah, that would be great. McClane and Hans. I wouldn't bet on Hot Toys making them though.

It'd be nice if NECA went back and tried Die Hard again. I know the 18" John McClane was in the works, but that original figure just didn't cut it.

Re: Die Hard

Marf and Ray F have the best McClane figures no doubt.

The fact we have gotten Robocop, Indy, Aliens, Predator, etc and no Die Hard is indeed BS. They could make at least 3-4 differant versions of McClane, one from each movie.

Re: Die Hard

One of the major problems, I'm sure, is that he's not as visually interesting as the characters from those other films you are referring to. McClane is just a guy in dirty clothes, with bloody bare feet. I think he's an icon on the order of Vito Corleone, and I think he would sell, but I can understand HT being a bit cautious with that one. Also, it might not be that popular of a film in Asia--perhaps evidenced by the fact that we got Palz, not Kubricks.

Why didn't you use the proper DIE HARD Thread?

Bump... I'm here...

Actually I may have news soon on a new custom. Not McClane.

Link me and I'll get rid of this one. I thought for sure there was one on here, in some form, but nope after a few minutes of searching, nada.

Best McClane custom ever!!! Hands down, w/o a doubt. I'd buy this fig from HT in a second!

 

[karamazov80]

That is a nifty custom, though the face seems to have a Humphrey Bogart vibe to it, IMO.

I realize i never posted my JM in this thread! Wonder why? heres a few snaps.

 

[karamazov80]

^^ That's the best custom I've seen. I kind of wish you wouldn't post pictures, because it makes me jealous and angry that I don't have it.

"Best McClane custom ever."
A HT version wouldnt look much different. Did the wifebeater start out white? Theres not a bit of white.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Whoa! Beautiful McClane, Ray!!!! Just awesome! Just the right amount of blood and dirt too.

 

[sladesuperagent]

Sorry. I hafta disagree. Hair is way too combed. His hair was pretty messed the entire film. Great likeness, wrong hair. And he looks a little too buff.

I guess you've never seen the movie.

 

[DiFabio]

I gotta agree here. The hair is really the only "flaw". He looks too much like Die Hard With A Vengeance then the first Die Hard.

Give him a little more hair, smooth the wrinkles around the eyes to make him younger and that's the perfect Die Hard Nakatomi Plaza McClane.

Still, it's the best one I've seen. Good stuff.
