Unlicensed 1/6 Forest Gump Figure

[Rzeznikk]

It is an odd choice for a figure, but the Film has been one of my favorites since I saw it in 1994, And Tom Hanks performance and character has been one of my favorite film characters of all time, so having him represented on my shelf in my movie room is a must. It just took me awhile to find a head sculpt that was good enough for me.

buahahha i was wondering the same thing! i thought this was gonna be a joke, but its for real.

Because it's an iconic character from a great movie? Why post in a thread where you have no interest in it? I have no interest in a hot toys batman.

Ive wondered why people do this myself. If I have no interest in something I tend to stay out of a thread dedicated to it.

100% agree, I mean it's a message board and people could do whatever they want, just don't get why someone would be like oh, look at that, I have zero interest in it, think I'm gonna post and tell everyone that I don't want it.

Nice looking custom. The sculpt looks good you might want to repaint it though.

Thanks! I think the paint on the sculpt will have to do. Im not any good at repainting head sculpts. Though I may try and get rid of some much dark in the nostrils. In person it almost looks like he has a nose full of dirt.

Looking pretty good, I actually switched my Gump to a true type and it looks much better then when I took the pictures that were posted earlier in the thread
