Fast Times At Ridgemont High Jeff Spicoli 1/6 sculpt

[Punishment1218]

I know this movie may be a bit old for some of you guys, but I loved it growing up and love Sean Penn as Jeff Spicoli. If I get enough interest in this, I will commission Troy McDevitt to sculpt this. I need at least 10 interested. Should be a pretty simple find for clothing. Here's a couple of pics. Unsure of the expression. Any thoughts?

Great choice! Glad to see some new sculptor talent introduced for a change. Ill be watching out for this. Put me down for interest.

 

[greatlakes6]

Interested as well. This is one of my all time favorite movies.

 

[dchung]

Awesome! Totally awesome!

"All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I'm fine."

Great idea for a sculpt.

I also thought about making a custom surfboard to go along with this, but I gotta have more interest to make this thing a go.

 

[Punishment1218]

Bump for interest.......or this projects a no go.

 

[Papasmoak]

Come on people...it's Jeff Spicoli!

Interested.

 

[Levit05]

gotta admit..i would love to see what Troy could bring to the table...i'm in..

 

[Punishment1218]

I commissioned Troy since Im very limited to what I can do because of my wreck. The guys a true pro and very talented. Right now hes working on my new Punisher War Journal headsculpt that I will be offering. He will probably be taking on the Carl from Slingblade sculpt as well.

 

[greatlakes6]

There has to be more people who are interested in Spicoli? I wonder ow many on the forum have never seen the movie? On another note, still excited about Karl from Slingblade.

One of my favorite movies of all time, but I dunno if I need a 1/6 Spicoli in my life, yet somehow I feel like I'd be interested in seeing it come to pass...

If it does happen, I gotta have the checkered Vans or no dice! :lol

We could paint the checker pattern on some Kung Fu shoes like the Bruce Lee ones.

Can't wait to see this.

We could, but we might as well try to get the proper sneaks, too!

I think my ultimate version would be in the turtleneck/poncho outfit on the first page.

Or this, bagel included!:lol

 

[greatlakes6]

I love the bagel outfit look. Is that what he was wearing when he first enters the classroom and Mr. Hand lets him in and lectures him?

 

[Punishment1218]

I wonder if a backpack is available? This would be a good look to the figure along with a surf board as an accessory. The bagel is easy along with the clothes. Again, it all depends if I can get enough people interested. List will be updated.

Thanks for updating the list...5 more for a possible go!

So it seems we like the "Bagel" look the best, at least 1 person mentioned the poncho look(also very cool), so it seems the best face expression is the bagel shot as it would work for both outfit styles.

 

[Kay-ess-cee]

Yeah, The way I see it, there's 3 characteristic expressions that would work for Spicoli. "Wha?", "Whoa!", and "Gnarly!!!". I prefer a more "static" confused state like when he's just out of it.
