That is one awesome LVC!
Looking very "Bad", I might add.

You guys are crazy. That looks nothing like Van Cleef.



Just brilliant work. Likeness, personality and craftsmanship all spot on.

Will these be sold as HS + clothing sets zuno?

Probably yes. but he hasn't mentioned about it.

Thanks,

Thanks,

Thank you for replying.

Hopefully I can afford one and not actually miss out this time! Really hope he can make them available. Just looks ridiculously good.

EC, Try this for the blue striped shirts:

As much as I love BillyB's shirts, I really like the detailing on miniBarbie's interior collar and cuffs on the sleeves. If you missed out on BillyB's, this isn't a bad alternative or it can be used as a filler until something better comes along.

Here's the pix for Lonnie's unpainted Blondie

That's very kind of you, thanks for that !

that´s the worse Lee Van Cleef I´v ever seen...

It´s a joke.

Impressive work man. This version is really nice and accurate.

I just received these shirts from miniBarbie on eBay. They are pretty good quality and have real functional buttons (no snaps). the only thing that makes it not accurate to Blondie's is it only has one front pocket, if you keep his vest on, no one would know. They fit better on a HT or Dragon body. I have a few of BillyB's great custom shirts and I like them on SS bodies. These shirts fit the SideShow bodies but are a little short in the sleeve.
They are a pretty decent representation of his blue striped shirt at a good price.

Are the sleeves short on a Hot Toys body ? I'm tempted to pick one of these up.

Looks amazing. Who ever ends up with all three gunmen will have one hell of a set.

I need to watch the film again. Anyone care to speculate what the ex. item will be for Angel Eyes? I'm trying to remember anything cool he interacted with.

Fun Fact: Angel Eyes' real name is Sentenza.

Possibly the little pouch of gold he takes at the start? Or Bill Carson's snuff box?

Hi PC, The blue striped shirt does fit the HT body, if you have it a normal shoulder position. The sleeve hits right at the wrist, but not as short as on the SideShow bodies. On the Neo or Adam Dragon body, the sleeve hits a little below the wrist. Either has a good fit through the shoulders and around the body.

Thanks for that. What in your opinion would be the best body to use for Clint' ?

 

[Cap'n Cook]

If anyone has a Rainman Man With No Name clothing set that they could sell me, please send me a PM!

Not trying to pollute this thread, just desparate.

 

[paulcarson]

Someone please help this man out !

I hope that you manage to find one, I'd have loved one but it was just a bit too pricey for me. I'll have to put mine together piece by piece ...

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Thanks bud. Really looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

I am just a very foolish man, sat at the screen and there was one clothing set left and I did not jump on it. Think Mudshark here got it, so fair play to him. But, yeh, if anyone wants to make some cash and help a freak out, please PM me.

Good ideas. The snuff box is an important item but seems rather small and difficult to make as the film version, folding and lined in fabric with the name stitched in. The only other things are the farmer's knife he uses to cut bread with at the beginning and the lantern he holds when killing the man in bed, both of which are boring. After re-watching it, there isn't much else he interacts with. An alternate hatless head could be cool, but unlike Blondie he hardly appeared without his hat. Maybe the half Confederate soldier.

I hope Rainman sculpts a new pipe as the GBU version is slightly different.

I'd love for Tuco to come with the sacks of cemetery gold!

Thanks for that. What in your opinion would be the best body to use for Clint' ?

I'd use a regular HT TT as opposed to the slim. It might be a tad muscular compared to Clint in reality, but it will give him a proper heroic silhouette.

That stinks. Have you asked on the OSW site or maybe one of the Korean buyers wants to sell it? Someone might need the cash when the CC bill comes. Or you might have better luck once he ships.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Good idea man, thanks!

Will have a try at OSW too.

 

[LordAzrael]

Yeah - you are probably pretty unlikely to get one prior to when they ship. Good luck though.
