Yippie-ki-yay!

Well, he needs a holster, (which is currently being fabricated), but other than that, I am happy with him. My Det. John McClane. This is merely meant to be a representation of the character, not specific to any film of the trilogy. Mainly because I could not stand to put him in a vest and see all the ugly joints.

Head: Feng
Body: Hot Toys narrow
Shoes: Hot Toys military
Trousers: Hot Toys PMC
Shirt: Playhouse
Gun: ??? Detailed beretta with removable clip and slide

I will be sure to upload more pics when the holster comes in, as he does look incomplete now! May also give him some cigarettes too.

Nice! The head is VERY nice!

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Thanks!

I know a lot of people don't care for the Feng heads, but I ADORE them, they have a lot of character. Hope he makes the Die Hard 2 head available.

 

[uscmhicks]

that looks excellent. I think the head is great too.
Awesome work.

 

[captainjamesbrooke]

He sure did a good job on that one! Who painted it?

 

[uscmhicks]

you should contact EvilFace for a stand decal.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Cheers uscmhicks bud! I did do a whiles back for the blue tinted, gradiated DIE HARD logo, but I think he has forgotten me.

It is a Feng sculpt painted by Feng. SO pleased I managed to secure one. Has been my most wanted for ages.

I dont see Bruce in there.

 

[blakus939]

Not bad man, pretty sweet likeness on it!

 

[lforigno]

turned out great buddy. One of the better John McClanes out there

The figure looks great to me. I think its a very good sculpt of Bruce from mid to late 80's. Nice paint job to.

Maybe one of the newer Hot Toys plastic muscle bodies will alow you to do a Mclane in his dirty vest custom at some point.

 

[Crimsonbob]

looks like a young Bruce n1

 

[small_studios]

Nice custom. I saw that one on ebay awhile back. May need a good ol repaint at some point

Cheers Tyler, the muscle body is a good idea. Perhaps I could get one and saw the neck off Bruce and send to SmallStudios for a repaint to match the body tone. Hmmm...

Cheers. Don't tempt me!! I'm going broke as it is.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Few pics of him now complete now that my fantastic holster has arrived from custom-machine elvis!

Tempted to saw off his neck, send him for a repaint and add a vest onto a wolvie body, but may leave him be for now.

 

[blakus939]

Sounds like a mad idea! John McClane right there!

 

[Dash]

Great sculpt. It's weird seeing Ol' Bruce with hair again...

I keep wanting to do that with my Leon but with just a Saturday toys body since you can't see the arms anyway and I just want him in an accurate vest.
Why didn't we think of this before we had them painted !.
Looks awesome man.

Don't know if this will interest you or not, but a new figure with a Willis headsculpt is being released, and despite the surplus or hair and scar, I think it looks fantastic, and plan on using it for my McClane custom:
