Stay Puft hand completed and some more details on his headsculpt tweaked.

Pre-order for this buddy will be open very soon. Will only make 5 of the Ecto 1 bases. You can still get a spot on the list. People on the list will get the order info via pm before I post it here.

---------------------------------


It was sculpted completely from scratch after production shots and the movie.

Some of the previous iterations:

It will be a giant head that will take a lot of material and time to make. Will start accepting depoits for this base very soon. Pm me if you already want to make sure not to miss it. It will be a very small run (probably on 5 pcs.).

Let me know how you like the likeness of the upper rendering so far.

Thanks!

Imo such 1/6 vehicles pop out a lot more when displayed on a suitable base.

Have created surfaces with accurate 1/6 asphalt like texture before as you can see in the samples below. Working on suitable bases for the 1/6 DeLorean and the 1/6 Ecto 1 right now. Lmk if you are interested, custom sizes are possible.


March 2019 UPDATE
Work on these finally continues, Ecto 1 Base concepts added below.

Made this relatively quick first test for the 1/6 modeled flames in the way I had them in mind.
Colors and texture will be tweaked on the final product.


Lmk what you think!

Will possibly also offer other backdrop options.

Can't wait to put the DeLorean on this!! :p


Have created some types of street bases in 1/6 with an accurate asphalt like structure already, mostly for custom Dark Knight diorama works.
Some sample works:

UPDATE: Prices and interest list added

The list is non-binding at this point, once there is more to show I'll ask for deposits so that you can confirm your spot. All bases will be handmade with a lot of work in every piece. The concept is just to give you an impression of what I have in mind. Wishes or suggestions are always welcome!

Custom 1/6 'Stay Puft - Marshmallow Man Base'

Another concept idea for now but since I will most likely not build any further Bat-Bunker dioramas, chances are good I will have enough space to actually build these.

Price of this version TBD, I could not build more than 5 of these in any case as they would be pretty gigantic.

I am interested! The flames would be icing on the cake :lol
 
Re: Custom 1/6 'BASE TO THE FUTURE' ??

Ooh, sweet.

You take commissions on bases?
 
Re: Custom 1/6 'BASE TO THE FUTURE' ??

Definitely interested in a base and background. How much do these run?

To early to name prices, but I think it'll not be that high and I'd offer it like this:

1/6 BTTF Street Base w/o flames
1/6 BTTF Street Base w/o flames & with backdrop

1/6 BTTF Street Base with lighted flames
1/6 BTTF Street Base with lighted flames & with backdrop
 
Re: Custom 1/6 'BASE TO THE FUTURE' ??

Thanks! Wish I could go to the future to have the DeLorean here already. :lol
 
Re: Custom 1/6 'BASE TO THE FUTURE' ??

and when i thought how am i going to fit it nicely in a long display cab and not to be seen out of place, there you go and made an option without the backdrop. :lol

btw where are you based? i dont want to get all excited and to find out that shipping would be a crazy thing. :lol
(i'm from malaysia btw)
 
Re: Custom 1/6 'BASE TO THE FUTURE' ??

:lol I know what you're looking for.

No worries, shipping will not be to much to any destination as it can be packed quite flat even with enough prorection but I'll also calculate that and add the quotes in the first post once there is the interest list
 
Re: Custom 1/6 'BASE TO THE FUTURE' ??

Thanks fellas! So it looks like there'll be an interest list soon. Lmk if you want a spot on it.



Lmk what you're looking for. ;)

Sweet! Do you do Detolf-sized bases only?
 
Re: Custom 1/6 'BASE TO THE FUTURE' ??

I'm interested pending price.
 
Re: Custom 1/6 'BASE TO THE FUTURE' ??

I'm interested pending price.

:hi5:


Update: Just added a first quick concept and updated the first post with prices and the interest list.



Will possibly also offer other additional backdrops.

The list is non-binding at this point, once there is more to show I'll ask for deposits so that you can confirm your spot. All bases will be handmade with a lot of work in every piece. The concept is just to give you an impression of what I have in mind. Wishes or suggestions are always welcome!

Prices vary from $ 129 to $ 319 depending on the version you want.


bransen2099, NOVA KING, njlanman, center68 & Tobor64 please lmk if you want your spot on the list now that I could give you quotes and if you want one, which version it should be.

SlytherinPride, poseidon215 & jedijim3002 actually the same to you :) you're just not on the list yet as I wasn't sure if your posts mean that you're interested but if you want one I'll make sure you'll get a spot.

Considering this...not sure if I'm getting the Delorean or not. Guess I better unbox Marty today and see how I feel after that lol.
 
Re: UPDATE: Custom 1/6 'BASE TO THE FUTURE' ??

The Detolf version will be "just" for the Marty figure and if they make Doc there will be enough space as well for sure but of course not enough for the DeLorean.
The XL bases I'll all make at least big enough for the figures and the DeLorean but after your wished specs, up to the limits given in the first post (shipping size limitations, already considering the protective packaging I will put around it).


Can only recommend to get the DeLorean, no matter if you want one of my custom bases for it or not. If it will be as good as the prototype(s) shown, it will be the coolest 1/6 vehicle that I know by now. It is absolutely iconic and has so many details, I'm very sure the price will raise a lot once it's sold out, so you could still sell it later if you change your mind.

Couldn't help it: :lol
