I was sooo addicted to this show back in the day. My old crew would always gather around sunday night and watch this religously.
 
I think it's looking good! A fat suit should fit under that shirt -- Tony wouldn't tuck it in. This is going to shine on my Shelf of TV Greats.

Karamazov, what, no Miami Killer or House in your collection? No Jack Bauer? No Captain Mal? No TV Shelf of Fame?
 
The only TV Shelf of greats Id have would be good quality Monty Python gang, the current BBC Sherlock... AND Batman the Animated Series 1/6... I know Sherlock is happening... the others :(

Nope. I have a custom Walter White, but I don't think I'll hold onto even that. Need to stay focused!!! :panic:

I could almost justify this to go with my Don Corleone, but I'm not gonna do that.

And like Axe, I would also pick up a Sherlock Holmes if the opportunity arose. . .this one:

But it's more being the best existing version of one of the great all-time fictional characters than him being a great TV character.

I would have gone with the Jeremy Brett version too... actually I really like the Basil Rathbone ones too. Come to think of it... I would love Rathbone, Brett and Cumberbatch on my shelf... Sherlock Holmes has been a childhood favourite. There is no enough in it...
 
Yeah, those are all great takes on the character IMO. I still need to see season 2 of the new one. . .
:horror :horror :horror
You havent! Season 2 is way more intense than Season 1... Season 1 was more laid back... man you MUST watch Season 2! What have you been doing... just 3 90min episodes... and another 2 years of waiting for Season 3
 
Are there any left of this figure? They come painted? Does he come as a complete figure (head, body, and outfit), or is this just for the head sculpt?
 
I think I am still going to skip this. Breaks my heart but I just don't love it enough :monkey2

I hear yah... I wish rainman tackled this independently and given it the care it needs to make it top notch. Like I've said, you want rainman's art figures to be complement by top-notch craftsmanship. Sadly, this Tony just does not give me that vibe...

Noo Teddy really? You're the captian of this ship! You practically got it made. You've wanted a Tony forever and I don't think there will ever be another chance.

What can we do to perfect this? The issues of body I have no doubt I can correct on my own, I like the clothing a lot.

It's lacking likeness for me. It's not about being too fat or thin in the face it's all in his eyes nose and brow much like Ras was. I wondering its the paint more than the sculpt? Perhaps his eyes need to be darker.

I'm a loyalist and I'll fight until the end, no iminime is perfect. I was downright dissappointed with se7en and Michael Corleone out of the box but now after much tweaking upgrading, in michaels case paint tweaks I think they are among the best in my collection. The extra few hundred from a Rainman is the personal touch applied. There's gold in these iminime releases you just have ro sift through the rocks.
