Was just thinking about this today with the KP/Modern Life announcement. These are looking very cool.

 

[Levit05]

[galactiboy]

I don't think you could finish of a year better than with this figure... I'm so stoked for it!

mine on the shelf with a filter

 

[shocktrooper_au]

And the process line, couple if Coates needed and the base to paint, anybody have any ideas for packing?
i like the pick and pack solution but can't find local

 

[nexus]

Looking great! Might need a little more padding, but I can always pick up something if necessary.

 

[shocktrooper_au]

Yeah I'm adding a little padding to the mid section, with the fur coate and posing he looks pretty natural

Damn man.............the word epic is thrown around way too much these days but in this case I think it sums it up perfectly. Unreal work............Beautiful.

 

[shocktrooper_au]

Talking about epic work, package received my friend, so thank you I will post pics of his place in the collection, but really I'm my own worst critic which is slowing the process down and I can fully understand some guys timelines as they strive to constantly improve what they output and update as they go, this guy I have placed in amongst my hottoys, while he isn't upto their standard he certainly doesn't stand out like a sore thumb either.

This is Looking Insanely Nice !!

I'd pack anything that can slip around in paper/tissue.
Or plastic. The worst thing is when things like a sword or gun
Is wrapped with the figure. They slip around
And scratch the figure. Every customizer has
Done this and it sucks. I'd make a few boxes. One
For the figure and one for loose items.
It's the little things that cause problems. And get
Heavy stock boxs,
you can pack everything tight and not have
To worry about the box getting crushed. Save on shipping.
Costco will give them to you free. Use there baking boxs.
Does this help?

 

[shocktrooper_au]

It does mate, thanks I was hoping for a high density foam solution,
Will have to go to the Costco and have a look. The first one in the country opened a few months
Back

Seriously upset this won't be on my shelf next to Conan. One of the best looking figures I've seen of one of my favorite villains. Awesome piece brother. :clap

 

[shocktrooper_au]

Thank you, I had to cancel kaustic a barbarian, but I do like the idea of rexor and thorgrim behind him

If you're making both of them, just throw me on that list lol!!!

The first Conan is top 5 movie for me easy. Even as a little kid, the second one just didn't do it for me and I know Robert E. Howard purists didn't like Arnold as Conan, but that movie is the best interpretation we've had minus Dark Horses comics. It just felt gritty and real whereas The Destroyer felt cheesy and annoying. More Disneyland than the Hyborian Age.

If ya ever do another run of Thulsa, you know I'm in on that too

 

[shocktrooper_au]

Hey guys, small update, the first 5 DX figures are nearing completion with parts of the other kits being started as well , very happy how they are turning out especially with consistency of the paint apps, all look very close, a few touch ups here and there required..
pcleemakes will be the first out the door, I've also found a local foam supplier who can cut to fit ie: ht figures though no idea on cost yet and if able to do it.

 

[Erik S]

Hi
Wrap mine in bubble wrap, plastic
Or something. I don't
Need foam or anything special.

 

[Levit05]

I'm giddy about all the 80s conan love!!!...
