Just an update... Molding is taking place in the UK, asked for an EtA... Should be soon! I'll be shipping out the us heads when done, Sean the ones in Europe

Can't wait for these Ray, thanks for organizing. Finally going to have quality X-files figures. These mean a lot to me because these characters are what brought me to this site.
 
Re: X-Philes Fox and Dana head sculpts - Sean Dabbs

Hi guys just want to give an update on what the heck is going on with these guys as it's obviously been a min since the casting process happened. The news slowed down because we were waiting to hear from our caster and there was no news to report.

The long and short of it is we elected to use a newer caster with quality work but an unproven track record for large orders to keep the costs lower. Sean was told one thing and then it wasn't delivered so it put him in a tough spot, so he then called on a favor to one of the most trusted casters in the community and now that's where the heads are at, it won't be much longer and it will be to probably a better finished product.

I know it sucks to wait on something for so long but I was determined to get these made and at the most reasonable cost for all. Once in hand I know it will be worth the journey, thanks all for hanging in there with me.

What are people planning to do for the outfits - cobble from the Sideshow figures?

I'd probably avoid the Sideshow pieces... in my experience suits tailored for the Buck don't translate well to other bodies. Their clothing is fine when it doesn't need to be form fitting, but suits usually end up looking baggy and not up to snuff.

I've been very impressed with the Toy City suits... $35 and you get just about everything you'd need. I know there are some female suits out there as well, but like 16k said it's a bit trickier. Not sure how the buck female clothing would transfer over to a new body, might be worth a shot.

The time has come!! Casts are done.. I'll work out the shipping arrangements with Sean today, the Europe orders will go straight from him and the us orders will go to me and I'll get them out to everyone!!

THANK YOU! All of you who helped make one of my dream project come though. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do, I am super happy with the end result. Look what I got in the mail today, a nice little package courtesy of Mr. Lonnie Hale! Super high quality clean casts, they look great.

You all are saints with your patience and I thank you for that, the wait is now over. I am going out of town for the weekend but Sunday night these will be packed up and sent to you all Monday AM. European Freaks will have the heads sent from Sean in Paris. I'll make sure to snap some good pics before I box them up!
