Toy Anxiety 1:6 Custom Brainstorm Thread

hoping for a jack burton

 

[Toy Anxiety]

We have just launched 2 new threads regarding commissions of characters played by Will Farrell. The Ron Burgundy and Alan Gamble (The Other Guys) threads are now live.

 

[Toy Anxiety]

As many requests have been made, we have started on a custom Colin Clive AKA Dr. Frankenstein. We hope to make a few accessories to go along with him. It's in it's early stages, so there's no pics yet, but soon. You can follow the discussion and progress here.

The custom Martin Riggs thread is now live.

 

[Wor-Gar]

How about WEZ to go with Mad Max?

 

[EVILFACE]

Wez sculpt and some football pads.

How about WEZ to go with Mad Max?

Maybe in the future. We considered it, but based on the low sales of the Max head (so far), we're not ready to jump into this one right now. Also, his outfit is a tough one, and we're not in the position to do elaborate outfits yet. We know more Max heads will sell once the accessories are available, which should be very soon, so it really depends on how well this stuff does. It just isn't worth while if people aren't going to buy. We need to sell 25 Max heads to break even on the cost of commission and casting, so we've got a long ways to go. If the accessories do will, that will help too.

Except that Spenser already did a Danny Glover head sculpt. We need to be able to sell enough heads to justify the cost of the commission. The Riggs is happening because it's just a modification from the Max sculpt.

Jack Burton... Stay tuned

Yeah, I was interested in a Roger Murtaugh head sculpt to go with the Martin Riggs head sculpt you're starting to work on now. I had no idea that Spenser had done a Danny Glover head sculpt. I'll have to check with him about it. I'm SO happy you're doing a Riggs head now T.A.! Thank you SO much!

Jack Burton?! Oh yeah! I know we've seen the "Stuntman Mike" recently, but I'd really love a Jack Burton from "Big Trouble In Little China"! One of my favorite Kurt Russell movies!

I like how you're planning on and starting to make accessories for figures, like all the gear for Mad Max from The Road Warrior. I'm excited about Max's dog, and all the other gear you're offering, along with the Max "wastelander" head on your website now.

Understood. Too bad, I hope Max picks up in sales. I know I'll be getting some parts for sure so I hope to help you out.

Well once those accessories are up for ole Max, They'll be in my shopping cart!

For anyone who may have been interested in the Grim Reaper Robe, we have just reduced the price to $15.99.

Jack Burton... Stay tuned
Greatness!!!

 

[Toy Anxiety]

I apologize as I forgot to post here that we are now offering several custom Wastelander items, some of which have already sold out, but we'll get more in the future. They are good for your Mad Max customs, or for other projects as well. Check them out here.

 

[Toy Anxiety]

"#1 Zombie Killer" heads are now available on our site. As a reminder, we'll be offering, when ready, the following accessories:

Banjo
Mare's Leg Rifle w/ Leg Holster
Necklaces including the one on his hat from later in the movie.
T-Shirt

Most anything else already exists. Here's pics including a set that Spenser painted up.

Will you be offer a bundle or some sort of discount if we buy all the items together? I think I'm going to want all of the parts and pieces associated with Tall.. ah Zombie Killer #1 and getting a nice discount for getting them all would be great! Headsculpt looks great painted by the way! Its so hard to see the details in the unpainted casting.

 

[Toy Anxiety]

We may work something like that out, but we're not holding back items when they become available anymore like we did with the "Wastelander". They'll be on the site as soon as they're ready. If they're all done close to the same time frame, then we'll probably bundle them up as a set at a slight discount.

Any update on those prelit torches?

Any update on those prelit torches?

I'm trying to finish up the Colin Clive head first so I can send that, the torch flames and the Mad Max dog at the same time for casting. I'm hoping that will be in a week or so. Sorry for the delay, but trying to keep the costs down.

 

[MANDO]

The Zombieland head is excellent!

Colin Clive certainly makes the wait worthwhile!!
Thanks!
