Default My V for Vendetta 1/6 figure.

G'day All


With the release of Neca's talking 1/6 V for Vendetta figure I was inspired to finally make the figure I have wanted for ages. After getting the figure I came to the conclusion that the Head, Belt and gloves were able to be used but everything else had to be done from scratch.

I am very happy with the finished result.










Here is a rundown of what went into this figure.

BBI body with neck post modified to allow neca head.

Triad toys "The One" leather overcoat modified and shortened to V's 3/4 length

DID corp realistic Boots German series 1

21st Century Villian black pants

Classic Hasbro Darth Vader Cape

Repainted NECA gloves and belt buckle

I hope you like it, feel free to ask me any questions.

cheers

Great custom, zedex9r! Thanks for the recipe!
Maybe it would interest you to know there's a member of the onesixthwarrior-forum (Auret) who makes very nice metal 1/6 swords and daggers; maybe he has some metal Vendetta daggers as well. Just a thought...

Awesome Job... looks great, I'd love to do this myself... I do think you should maybe put a slight gloss of the hair or the Mask because the head and hat look a bit dead in comparison to all the textures on the body!

Top job though!

That's a great custom! I got mine with the identical idea in mind, but so glad to see it played out so well! Your boots and gloves rock, as does the cape (I did the same thing to my figure for now! Better than that plastic cape!) and the tunic is cool. Not movie accurate, but then, you'd need that weird patterned material to match it. Not so easy! If I find any I will let you know. I bet something is out there.
But otherwise, yeah, he looks great!
Congrats on a nice, clean, wicked figure!

What did you use for the tunic? I've been thinking of doing this as well and the tunic (and its weird material) is the sticking point, but whatever you used looks great!

Looks great all around. Good job!
