Unlicensed 1/6 Forest Gump Figure

[denger4000]

k, keep posting more pics of this incredible figure!

dude whats your problem exactly? You're just being a jerk for no reason, you posted your opinion now move on, did i offend you some in some other thread or are you just being your normal charming self?

The likeness isn't 100% but the clothes just need to be futz'd with. A bit of the water bottle spray treatment and some spirit tape would do wonders here. The hat though, I'm not sure of...did it come with the briefcase and bench or were those just for promos?

Came with the bench and suit case, which really adds value to it in my opinion, it's there with the rest of the pictures....

I personally wouldn't get this but it's a decent figure.

Great news everyone. Corrections seem to have been made.

Unless this is a completely differant figure from a differant company?

Is this a different figure? Looks better IMO--cept for the patch on the hat.

I think that 2nd figure is the better looking one. I almost got that one too, but ABCExpress kept refusing offers so I got bored.

 

[psung4ever]

that 2nd one is not really good trust me. I got one quite sometimes ago. base body is the old BBI body that came with those WW2 figures. and the accessories are absolutely not as detailed as that "short-neck" one. the hands are also poorly attached to the figure using the "gum-like sticky clay thing" and barely stay on. although the headsculpt is better.

I like the head sculpt on the second one better, but the bench and the low price made me get the one i got

I did the same thing.

I quit at $110.

Yeah, I think I got to a few bucks below their BIN price before I ran out of offers. Guess they weren't really accepting them after all

In retrospect I'm glad though, its kind of a dumb figure.

Well I picked up the jacket and pants (as well as a few other things) of this one from Toy Anxiety to make a Nassau Bahamas Craig Bond (when he first steps off the plane)... I hope they'll look ok on the custom.

Ive been wanting to get this figure, but the sculpt and over all "doll" like look to him have held me off, but then I found this head sculpt on ebay:

So now I am kit bashing my own Gump. Thought Id share this head sculpt for any one else that is interested!

Why would anyone want this?

Exactly. In fact, I don't much see the point of unlicensed figures, period—they invariably look very little like the person they are supposed to be representing, and this ugly piece o' junk is no exception. And since this is not a statue or a licensed prop, it should be outta here! "Toms Forrest"??! C'mon!

Can this be moved to the 1:6 General Action Figure forum???

Everything is just so disorganized since the changes. Everything is all over the place. It seems everything was done arbitrarily with little thought and very little care.

I wish we would go back to the way things were.

Got the Saturday Toys Tan suit to use to custom build my own Gump today but Im disappointed with how tan the suit actually is in person compared to the stock photo they had so now I need to sun bleach the suit.

I have some time till I get my Gump head so Ill be bleaching the suit. Not sure how long I need to leave it in the sun though...

 

[Rzeznikk]

Any one have the Forrest Gump suit case for sale? Thats the last piece I need for my figure to be complete. If anyone has one for sale or knows of where I can get it loose, please let me know. Thanks!
