Musicians 12"

[PosterBoyKelly]

So I don't know if there's a threadfor this already, but I noticed SS has been dablling in musicians, along with Medicom. Any hope fora future of these? I know we just gothit with KISS PF, which I'mnot getting because I can't afford PF, but any other figures you guys/gasl would liketo see SS hit? Igot a list already of some standars , imo, that wouldmake great figures:

-The Ramones (come on we get the Pistols, but not the ramones?@?@?)
-Danzig (medicomsdone him 3 ways VCD, let's get him 12"...well 10" he's got visual appeal)
-Andrew W.K. (why not, great image, and might as well get some newer guys in)
-Freddy Mercury (enough said, though necca makes an 18", we can't have to many freddys)
-Lemmyfrom Motorhead (again, enough said)
-Prince (I don't care if you don't like his music, how couldn't youhave one!?!?!? he could come with pancakes from the Chappelle show skit)

[galactiboy]

Sideshow did a great job with the Spinal Tap figures, it'd be cool to see them attack some other bands. I'd definitely throw down for a Joey Ramone... although my guess is Medicom will make those too:monkey2 Cool, but too much dinero for me.

:rock met him at the con. Just hanging out and no one knew it was him :rock I will be purchasing the VCD Misfit style and I am super interested in 12" musician line than PF.

Hey! Definitely I’d like to have The Ramones figures!
But I was thinking... Imagine having the MC HAMMER or VANILLA ICE figures and doing the poses!!! :chew

[Batty]

I had the Spinal Tap figures that came in the guitar case. They're the one set of figures I regret selling. It would be cool if they did other bands and packaged them that way.

[PosterBoyKelly]

YEAH HAMMER...DON'T HURT EM'!

Also Toe, Danzig rules, I ran into him at SDCC too for a second. I used towork at a record store and we had him do a signing, it was fun.

Know who wasn't mentioned yet? GWAR! They're getting 7" figs from someone this year, but 12" would be so cool. Blood squirting action!!!

[TOE]

:rock what was sad is that he told me there was a lot of people wearing a Danzig or Misfit shirt and no one came up to him :google

GWAR RULEZ!!!! I want to see Metallica next :monkey3

[PosterBoyKelly]

That sucks. It was kinda hard to find him though in the crowd, it's a big place and I didn't see anything on his site saying he'd be there (even though he usually is.)

Metallica would be cool, we'd need Cliff first just to rock it 'Master' style!

Dimmu Borgir also would be cool, they've got a good Black Metal look going on.

[Agent0028]

Not to get the thread back on track or anything... (just teasing of course :p)

But anyone know what I want? Rat Pack? How'd you know??? :wacky

[PosterBoyKelly]

That'd actually be cool, in black and white too. I want Sammy first! Exclusive....cmon'......cmon'....REMOVABLE GLASS EYE!

[Agent0028]

Eyepatch at the very least.

And what's with this first stuff? I say put 'em all out at once. No way in hell I'm going to be very patient waiting from Dino. :monkey3

[Batty]

Frank, Dino and Sammy are on my list.

[pixletwin]

Please refer to my sig.... In 1/6 is ok too.

[todoelresto]

I'd like the 1968 Elvis from Sideshow or Hot Toys :cool:
I'm shure pixeltwin would love it too.

Anything Elvis would be cool with me! :D

[Awesome-O]

Yeah, leather jump suit for the King, and the Satalite special from Hawaii would be great! I mean he was, and still is the king! I'd also like Meatloaf tee hee:chew

[Mookeylama]

i'd buy the Rat Pack, Elvis (or Elvi because i'd want diff eras), Metallica, Danzig, hell quite a few more. i also want the Sex Pistol figs that Medi put out. i think they're doing the Stones too.

[Duckgoo]

Medicom will be coming out with 12" Steve Tyler and Keith Richards soon. The prototype pics are on Medicom's website.

[Mookeylama]

i saw small pics of these and i guess when i saw Richards i assumed the big lipped figure was gonna be Jagger lol. guess it's Tyler

[Darth Scourge]

You need to have a motor dropped on your head.

[pixletwin]

Ahhh Motorhead.... http://www.mattdixon.co.uk/Images/Lemmy.jpg

He would make a great VCD. he he

[PosterBoyKelly]

With exclusive swapable moles!

[Gruff Old Bear]

Can't find Steven Tyler, but the Glimmer Twins are both up. Medicom uses small pictures, unfortunately. I've photoshopped both images for each figure -- both are setup to show a second angle when you hold a button down:

Navigate to Real Action Heroes > the last selection on the RAH list (it's in Japanese) > scroll down, their names are in English.

Wouldn't be the first time someone confused Mick and Steven...

[Aerosmith]

Thanks Gruff Old Bear. I might get them if Sideshow offers them.

[Alice Adrenochrome]

Here's an other older thread regarding the subject.

1/6 KRAFTWERK for me please.

[Gruff Old Bear]

You may think that I'm a dreamer, but there've been a number of groups mentioned I either wouldn't want...or don't even know what they look like.

The Beatles, on the other hand, offer so many possibilities I don't know which I'd prefer. The teenage Hamburg Beatles with Pete Best and Stu Sutcliffe...the first Cavern Club appearance with a bearded Ringo, fresh from Rory Storm & the Hurricanes, the first Ed Sullivan appearance (probably the first we'd see, but those collarless jackets have already been done to death), the Sgt Pepper uniforms, the individual looks from the era of the White Album and Hey Jude, the Let It Be rooftop concert...this was musical history. It's the Star Wars license of the "Legendary Musicians" universe of possibilities.

Package these with a re-release of the "Anthology" DVD set and...woo...hoo...

[pixletwin]

Gruff Old Bear, I like the way you think. :cool: :D :chew

[waverly94]

12 inchers of Darby Crash (The Germs) and Ian Curtis (Joy Division) for sure. Robert Smith from the Cure. And these wouldn't sell in the states but they would in Europe, Liam and Noel from Oasis.

Other thoughts - The Ramones (as mentioned,) Kurt Cobain, The New York Dolls, Devo, Henry Rollins (circa Black Flag,) maybe Randy Rhoads. Motley Crue circa 1985 might be interesting as figures. Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix would also kick ass.

I'd also buy The Beatles (preferably moptop or Sgt Pepper versions,) the Rat Pack, Elvis etc.
