Hi everybody,
This thread is to gauge interest for a Wesley Snipes Blade sculpt from the first movie, with a possibility of some additional accessories.
I have never been happy with the Hot Toys Blade sculpt, and finally thought I'll try to see if others feel the same, and we could get a new sculpt. I've spoken to Rocco, and if we get the usual 20 people interested, this project is a go. His sculpts usually run at $72 plus $7 US or $33 International shipping. As this would include the sunglasses, the price might be slightly higher. It's unclear yet whether the sunglasses can be transparent or not.
As far as additional accessories go, my first priority is to get the Stubai brand buckles he's using on his vest, belt, and coat. I haven't been able to source these from another figure, and accuracy is key here. The plan is to kitbash the vest ourselves, unless somebody else wants to look into commissioning a complete vest. georgieboy26 on here also offers a kit to build the vest that could complement these buckles, and he also offers the gun and holster from the first movie.
Another accessory addition would be the 3 stakes he wears on his leg.
While not set in stone, it might be possible to get the sculpt, glasses, buckles, and stakes for $100 plus shipping. This depends on the interest for these additional items.
In terms of expression, I want to go with a determined but somewhat neutral expression, no open mouth. Essentially something like this:
Here a picture of the buckles of the vest:
And finally a clear shot of the sunglasses:
Let me know if you're interested, and please be clear whether you would want the sculpt only or also the additional accessories. Other accessories could also be possible, but price would of course change. Of course feel free to express other ideas as well.
Thanks for looking!
