Here's my McClane. Love this head sculpt. Got the idea for the cotton cigarette smoke from joebizz34's custom on YouTube. Thanks Hunterdnrc for the decals!

Yippee Ki Yay!

Impressive, most impressive. That would grace any collection.

I said it a few pages back and I'm STILL itching to buy that head sculpt but I need the following:

Body type
Clothing (where did you guys buy these? hell I'd pay someone to weather them like the above)

That sculpt is phenomenal.

 

[Jokes & Bats]

eBay.

eBay.

Hi Jokes, yeah I had a look on ebay but didn't find anything really suitable clothing wise, but then I don't really know what I'm looking for. New to this (relatively).

Lots of nice customs in here guys, great work. Glad to see so many great looking figures lately, as I know for a while it seemed like everyone was using a very undersized body - so much so that I thought maybe the head sculpt was the wrong scale. Glad to see it work out.

Hate to be the guy that says it but that's not the case. The head is still way oversized... What you are seeing that is looking better is that this is a properly scaled recast everyone's buying and posting pictures of their bash with... Not trying to call out those who bought the recasts, but it's still the case here...

That could also explain the discrepancies I've been seeing on Facebook. I thought something like that might be the case and even asked in a couple of threads if posters were using an original sculpt - didn't get any replies confirming that I can remember.

I thought thats what this thread was about, i know there is an official mj head thread. I for one bought the recast but dont have the original to compare it with.

Uuuhg did i fldo it again?

 

[matj007]

I unsubscribed from that thread due to all the righteous indignation going on over there. Please don't drag all that up in here again :\

 

[Rainpaulo]

The recast head is fantastic...I for one am delighted to have it and would recommend anyone wanting a John Mc to pick it up.

 

[N3M3SIS 2ALL]

Uhhhg, long night for me!!! So wait, someone implies that there might be a few people with recasts and no one bats in eye, someone says its true they bought a recast and all of a sudden tender ears dont want to hear it? I posted pics in the Mj thread not thinking of the thread title and just submitting it for info and comparison, then got blasted, which again I didnt realize that was a specific thread on the MJ thread so I see where they are coming from,... Come across this thread, figuring since there is another thread on the matter that this was intended for kit bash, recasts and such! and Im still getting shi* I think i drank to much and being sensitive but I wish I could ........
