1:6 Sgt. Slaughter Headsculpt Interest Thread

I haven't contacted any sculptors yet, but I thought I should see if there is any interest in a 1:6 scale Sgt. Slaughter headsculpt first. The recent Hasbro figure really has me wanting the Sarge in 1:6 to go with Sideshow's Joes, since him being made by Sideshow are slim.

I would think we should go with a likeness to the real Sgt. Slaughter since he is one of only a few Joes with an actual likeness. Whether you want him realistic and pudgy or a roid monster from the cartoon is up to you though

We could see if sunohc would give it a shot.

Problem is the body. Only a T800 or Dutch body would look right.

I would be interested.

Yeah, that was my thoughts on a body for him too. If Ski would quite hogging all of the muscle, maybe there would be some more to go around

i would be interested.

Depending on the price I'd certainly be interested.

Put me on the list.

I'm thinking one of the old Jakks Pacific wrestler bodies would be perfect for Sarge.

Yea, something like this:

What about the ACE body? Keep the advanced articulation and lose the headache of a muscle body.

OK, we're up to 5 now. die, Nam, you guys interested?

Depends on cost, quality and followthrough. This might very well wind up another of the many Wishlist threads that plague the board.

^^ no doubt.

its a cool project, but the lack of the right body style makes it only a kind of appealing.

Maybe yes.
Dutch or T800 body would be the best but they are expensive.
Those Jakks body looks ugly and the ACE body is not muscular enough and there is the ugly joints problem.

The Ace body is muscular enough for a Slaughter. I'd rather have him realistically fit in with the rest of the Joes and keep a decent amount of articulation than be all cartoony like "Drago." And since it's an action figure, the whole "exposed joints" thing is a non-issue.

^ this most definitely.

I'd be intrested depending on the likeness and cost.

Well if you're planning on displaying wiht a tak top an Ace body would look horrible. But if you'r eplanning on putting a shirt then maybe yes.

Ok, then maybe I can start asking sculptors about costs, etc. But first I need to ask you guys some questions.

1.) Do you want him to have a hat? If so, removable or attached to the headsculpt? The Sideshow R. Lee Ermey has a nice Drill Instructor hat that could be used if the sculpt was made to fit it.

2.) Do you want sunglasses? Again, removable or attached to the headsculpt? When the T-1000 comes out, his mirrored sunglasses would work great, again, if the headsculpt was designed to use them.

Obviously any extras to him (hat, sunglases) would increase the price of the sculpt, making them removable could add costs as well.

What's a T-1900?

I think the hat should be removable as well as the glasses fore realism's sake. Sculpting the glasses on would look silly though I can see casting issues with them separate.

Seperate hat and glasses.

Slaughter is bald, so I don't think there will be a issue with hair. Are there any existing drill sgt hats that can be used instead of having one sculpted?

A t-shirt with USA on it or a black one for the Tripple T look might work for the exposed shoulder joints.
