I am coordinating/facilitating a custom 1:6 TAARNA figure from the cult classic animated film HEAVY METAL.

If you never heard of or saw HEAVY METAL, then check out the followings links below.

The project is in progress/underway. This is a private commission project. The customizer(s) are known and respected within this forum, the Triad Toys Forum, & the OSW.

I (and probably others) always wanted to own a 1:6 figure of TAARNA and this commission/project is finally a 1:6 realization for me as a collector.

I'm sharing the custom commission/project within this forum as well the Triad Toys Forum.

TAARNA will be available as a set (i.e. custom head, accessories, outfit, but NO 1:6 BODY) similar to D|X sets by Triad Toys that can be used with 1:6 female bodies from TRIAD TOYS or other comparable 1:6 female bodies (i.e. CG 1.0/1.5/2.0/PB, etc.).

The final production should be completed within the next two to three months (tentative) provided there are no unforeseen delays from the commissioned customizer(s).

In order to effectively maximize the return on the project in terms of cost, arrangements have been made to produce X number of sets and I am posting this thread to gauge approximately how many forum members would genuinely be interested in acquiring a set so the appropriate number of sets can be determined to be produce.

As far as price, the initial estimate (subject to change) is approximately $130.00 per set based on X number of sets produced, but the more sets produced to accommodate interested buyers/members, the price can decrease. For now, I am limiting the set to one per forum member.

I am not asking for any $ upfront from anyone until the project is completed with the sets on hand and ready to ship. I'll be coordinating all aspects from payment to shipping.

Once the initial production (not prototype) pictures are ready, I will post/share them within the forum.

For now, if you are interested, then PM me through the forum with a simple "YES. I am interested. Please PM me the details when ready." or post within thread.

I will post/share updates to the commission/project when appropriate.
 
I´m interested, of course depending on the final product. I love that film.
 
Just a brief update.

This project is not dead. It's about 75% completed. The tentative head sculpt is finally done, but reviewing for the best rooting options (i.e. saran hair).

The accessories, outfit, & weapon are completed. I'm awaiting pictures before they're set for limited production quantities.

Right now, I'm anticipating all the pieces to be ready by November/December, but given that time of the year . . . I may hold off until possibly 1ST QTR 2012, but we'll see.
