Except the DiD hobbits are HUGE!

Very true Dave, I guess they'll just have to grow into them!

Figured I should post this here instead of the Gimli thread:

Howes would probably do a Merry/Pippin head commission, if there's enough of ya.

Does anybody know anything about these guys? https://www.andgor.com/Personalized_Figures/personalized_figures.html

EDIT: Nevermind. I just found this https://sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6315

Ouch.

Yeah, the wifey considered it when looking to have an action figure made of me, but couldn't justify the price.

 

[lerath666]

it might, however, be worth it to comission one of the major sculptors on here to do it, and do it as a group action. WE have some incredably talented sculptors on the board, some who haven even done work for sideshow, and will talk, ( in private) about doing sculpts. I would make certian, that whoever you discuss this with, you inform them up front it's a group commission.

So who do we need to talk to about a custom Merry and Pippin head sculpt?

Well, there's a certain someone who's producing fantastic vinyl pieces of some Clone buckets/Morrison sculpts for a helmeted Obi or unmasked trooper.

Well if someone can come up with good sculpts...I'm in.

Does the King Aragorn outfit and crown from the Barbie/Ken 2-pack fit on the Sideshow Aragorn?

Looking good, Pix!

I've seen a custom with the Ken/Aragorn outfit. I'll try to find some pics.

Thanks! The Ken/Aragorn set is so expensive, I don't want to get it only to find out it doesn't look good on a SS Aragorn.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Very nice, Pix!

Did you make any alterations to the clothing?

 

[pixletwin]

Just cut a bit of length from the undershirt and mail. Thats it.
