TOPO - Drug Dealer (Walter White) - 1/6th Figure

[Scout Trooper]

I want to like this but i just can't, i hope a good company does justice to him one day. Maybe Inart or Mars Toys revisits again i dont know... I just can't believe there isn't a good Walter White figure out there.

It's been done to death honestly. At this point if you're looking for something better, your best route is to go custom.

Yeah maybe, something about the face seems little off for me.

Probably the best this set can look is with the jacket on, the hat, shades, and S2 sculpt. I think that sculpt is fantastic. Maybe get it sent to a professional painter, and you're set without breaking the bank too much. However, maybe that's not the ideal representation you want for the character?

I would have rather seen Topo deliver one great sculpt instead of three mediocre ones. Any time a figure comes with 3 sculpts, that's a red flag.

Completely agreed, i wish that happened instead.

Take the TZ fig, and put the MT clothing and glasses on him. I think TZ still has the best mass produced head sculpt.

I really want the ThreeZero Hazmat set, but it is nearly impossible to find one. I hope they reissue them one day, just like they did with Stranger Things line.

An excellent figure, I think it is the best among the masses. The only thing I don't like is the coloring of the eyes and I have a few questions about the set. But really, they could put all their effort into one sculpt, while reducing the overall cost of the product.

I'm looking to buy some accessories from this set if anyone has any to part with

When the first in hand photos of this set came out, I had my doubts on it. Despite that I picked it up and couldn’t be happier. Tailoring is perfect. The S2 look is bang on. I picked up some glasses from AliExpress like recommended in this thread and they look great. If anyone is still 50/50 on getting this, I’d recommend it. If you’re not a fan of the stock sculpts, you can always get an improved head sculpt in the future.

Honestly still going to be doing a wait and see on the Mars Toys Gus, but I think I might go ahead and pull the plug on this. Do the materials feel well made?

The tailoring is great mate, easily the best on the market without going custom. In my opinion you can’t go wrong, it’s a great figure.

 

[RGBuddha]

Thanks for letting me know! That's always my first hesitation with third party figures but this one looks really promising. Think I might just get 'Waltuh' on his own to be a solo representation of BB for me, then a Saul Goodman for BCS at some point down the road.

Has anybody had any problems with the hat leaving stains on the headsculpt?

Mine arrived today also.
Been doing plenty of prep since the PO dropped so I could assemble an ep1 Walt straight away.

Started by getting a body with single jointed legs and decent details. Only problem was the upper body having a neck so did a transplant which actually worked out great as the top half appears it’ll be ideal for a Chester Bennington I’ve been intending to make for ages. So many tattoos to draw…

This helped shorten the Walt body as well which was very much needed.

Those legs looked very pale and plasticky though so I painted them up and drew some hair on. Walt also needed a bit a chubbying up.

Once the Topo set arrived, he also required some more upper body mass. More traps and gut.

I ended up removing the arm pads and one circle of belly as I went way too buff.

The legs really shine in natural light imo.

I wanted to use the Topo gun holding hand, which has a magnet fitted inside- so I just shoved a small screw in the wrist slot and it attaches to that great.
Wish Topo included a second left hand and another pair of glasses though.

The finished Tighty (Walter) Whiteys figure.

Really happy with that.
The shoes and socks aren’t a perfect match so I may mod them further in future but, for now, they look more than good enough.

The actual Topo figure itself is better than expected. No need to swap the sculpt if you don’t have a custom already imo. View attachment 708721View attachment 708722

Oh, my box was beaten to hell when it arrived- but I got a $10 reward on my scratch card from OSK so that makes up for it.

Really impressive job on the season 1 kitbash you’ve inspired me to try the same-if you don’t mind could you tell me where the shoes are from (they look jones like) but I can’t find them-many thanks

Thanks. It was a really fun mod.

Those exact shoes are from https://www.machinegun-figures.com/suede-darke-s-crosby-moc-toe-shoes-brown-p-48438

They’re not perfectly accurate to what Walt wears but they capture enough of the essence to satisfy me. Being real fabric is a big bonus.

Thanks so much just ordered them,saved me so much trouble trying to find them-just one more thing how easy was it to swap the top have of the body on thezcwo figure as on picture of the bodies I can see any screws on the back ?

It certainly wasn’t as simple as I would have liked but also didn’t require any specialist skill.

To detach the legs, yo need to access the screws inside the lower torso.
I think I had to heat the ZCWO body in warm water to pop the chest section off.
Then, to remove the rubber ab sleeve, I slid a knife up under it to cut it away from the hard plastic core, having to cut from both ends.
Once that’s off you can access the screws and it’s straightforward.
