Thank you fellas for your early support already in 2019 and for your feedback! It helped a lot to get this project rolling into the best direction. I want this to become the ultimate and most accurate custom 1/6 E.T. display. Having Toribox involved now is another big part to achieve this.
The sets need to do justice to this all time movie masterpiece.

Each set will include
Custom 1/6 E.T. with blanket

- Painter : Pete
- Real fabric Blanket
Custom 1/6 Elliott
- Sculptor : JMB Workshop
- Outfit : Toribox
- A specially customized posable figure body is included
- A figure stand with nameplate is included
- Painter : You will get 2 options to choose from (included within the price) or you can choose to get Elliott unpainted
- Custom 1/6 shoes : Fan Customs
Custom 1/6 Kuwahara BMX
- Accurate 1/6 replica of the famous BMX as seen in the movie
- The frame, wheels and most of the detail parts will be made of metal
- 1/6 White plastic crate
- Construction, assembly & decal design: Fan Customs
- Painting : Pete
Each set comes in a suitable art box and with a suitable numbered and signed COA.
Options
Custom 1/6 'Moon Flight Base' | Price: $ 320
- With backlit night sky & moon backdrop
- Fits perfectly flush e.g. inside Detolf cabinets
- Accurately detailed trees and base (see picture above)
- Flight pose holder for the BMX
Additional custom 1/6 E.T. body (not actually required, please read) | Price: $ 290
- E.T.'s body had different sizes in the movie
- The body for the flight scene is specific to fit inside the crate, if you like to display him like that (as I think most do) you do not need the separate body and you can also remove E.T. from the crate in any case
- The additional body would give you the chance to display E.T. next to Elliott at a more suitable body height though

In so stoked to be on board for this project ( J external here ). It's a little boys dream come true to have a movie accurate E.T. and Elliot.
Wow this is amazing. I notice you've used a rare technique to your advantage that I've never seen any artists use before (Robbie, Doggiedoc, etc.).Hi fellas,
A minute ago I updated the first post with more detailed info about the two set versions.
After your feedback I had decided to go for Yunsil to sew the Elliott outfits. That made it necessary to do 25 instead of the originally planned 10 sets, otherwise the outfit would have become even more expensive but I wanted to stick to the originally planned set price.
I am accepting only 15 commissions as Early Bird commissions, 13 of them are taken by now, thanks to all of you for this early support! Otherwise it would not have been possible to fund this project. I want to underline that there will never be a second run of these sets.
There is a lot of work and progress on all parts, everything is getting the same attention to detail you know from my previous accessory projects. I summarized some of the earlier and current insights for you, I hope they bring back some iconic 80th feelings:
Take good care!
Fan
These look great!
More prototyte parts for the movie accurate custom 1/6 Kuwahara BMX I am working on for this set. Work on the small series already has begun.
