Interest : Harmonica, BSG, and other interest

I can't believe someone can actually request Tarzan and the Chimp.

I'd also love Firefly.

That would be awesome. Trevor has made great sculpts but the thing that always defeated me was painting and tracking down clothing that would work. I have very limited time, skills, ability and funds so I am super grateful when you can get a 100% complete figure.

Iconic characters or characters that fill in missing gaps in lines Sideshow or Hot Toys left is probably the way to go.

I have seen people request the crew from Jaws. Personally I would love some from the movie Willow (I loved it as a kid) but there probably isn't enough interest there.

Keep the ideas coming! Thanks Doug

Someone suggested Mel Gibbson Road Warrior.

In for Harmonica. Cheers!

I know it's a crazy dream but I'd love to get Hobbit figures. Bilbo and Thorin would be at the top of my list but there are not many in scale bodies and the customs are definently difficult and lots of layers.

Don't forget Khan :lecture

The bodies are the main obstacle.

Yeah there just isn't a lot of demand for child size 1/6 figures. I had hoped that when Sideshow spent the money researching and developing hobbit size bodies with Hot Toys that they would at least churn out some base bodies to recoup their D&D costs but they never did.

It only cost 2k to develop a body. It is so easy for them to factor in the cost with their volume. The average cost for a body is under $3 for a 500 units production and we are paying $20+ :-(

Re: Interest : Harminica and BSG interest

Any and all sound promising Nanjin... as for Harmonica you might try and contact Russ Lukich (Mr. Barlow) he offered an incredible sculpt and it might save you the trouble of getting one made..

I would be happy to spearhead research or anything else into a Harmonica. That is my all-time dream figure.

The Mr. Barlow head is great, although I'd prefer a neckless head.

Mr Barlow's head is a wonderful likeness of Bronson. But, honestly guys don't you think its a bit on the small end of the 1/6 scale ?

It is too small. I really would like to see this project get a new, neckless sculpt to properly pose with the harmonica.

 

[DKA8976]

Come on guys! Let's drum up some interest!

Hmmm interesting info. Thanks for that information I like learning about the whole manufacturing process.

 

[nanjin]

Want to develop your own bodies? Let me know if you are interested. I am.
