I just set my sights on a Bilbo custom as well. I think with a good repaint and a new Body (courtesy of a Sam I just bought from Sideshow as well as a few borrowed items from Frodo) he could really be a decent figure.

Well, what would LOTR really have been without the curious little bastard who started it all? Hmmm?

A cheap and relatively easy custom requiring more patience than purchase. But IMO, a necessity to the 12" line.

Disclaimer: Any whining about being forced to spend more dough to make Bilbo can be forwarded via PM to Pix, since he's the one who pushed me to post the pic.:lol
 
Nice repaint on Bilbo. Mine is shiney face Bilbo right now. I'm going to keep the body as is but will now need to switch out the jacket/pants.
 
I wanted you to post the sexy Bilbo pic. :( :lol


Name: Bilbo "Bid Daddy" Baggins
Age: 131 (years young)
Sex: Male
Ethnicity: Hobbit
Height:1.2 Meters
Hair: Grey (but the drapes don't match the carpet)
Best Feature: Large feet (you know what they say :naughty)

Bilbo.jpg


Turn-offs: That thieving little nephew of mine who stole my ring and that goody-two-shoes Gandalf for being my conscience. Otherwise, I'm open to everything.
Turn-ons: Adventure, fireside storytelling, puffing weed from the shire, and nude Hobbitdom love-ins...

If I looked at that post more than once does that mean I'm Brokeback now?

Bi? Curious? Call Bilbo....:lol Actually, I initially sent that photo to Pix for an opinion on how well the TB headsculpt works with the SS body. Now, if you're looking at it for any other reason...:p

P.S. Thanks for the compliment on the repaint, although I think it's merely tolerable.
 
OMG! That's awesome! I've been replaced! :)

"Bilbo 'Bid Daddy' Baggins"?

I guess this is what comes up on an ebay search when you mistakenly type 12" Dildo (made by Toybuzz) instead of 12" Bilbo. :lol

:rotfl Bilbo dear you have uhm interesting hobbies :lol
 
In response to the few people who've PM'd me, and the one who PM'd me like a psycho ex girlfriend...you know who you are :lol, here ya go:

Bilbo Menu:

What You'll Need:
Sideshow Frodo, ToyBiz "soft" Bilbo and Dark Green RIT Powder Dye

Ingredience:
ToyBiz Bilbo:
Headsculpt
Journal/Storybook
Vest
Sideshow Frodo:
Frodo body
Frodo shirt
Frodo jacket
Frodo pants
Pipe
Sting, belt & scabbard
LOTR stand

The only areas I ran into some difficulty were heating the head to go over the Sideshow ball joint neck and dying the cloak. Make sure you hit the head with plenty of heat because you don't want to snap the little stem of the balljoint. It'll take a bit of effort, but it does fit nicely once it's on. For dying, use 1/2 a box of RIT, cut the water in half, follow the instructions and soak for 20min. There's no need to lighten the jacket or pants. When the dye has set and it's all dry, the coat will look the deep green color it needs to be and the darker brown pants will look black. There's no need to bleach or lighten. Once all that's done, he's an easy assembly and looks just as fantastic next to Gimli. Although I'd recommend giving him a repaint to get rid of that sweaty pedophile look of the TB finish and make his color match up a bit better with the Sideshow body and the rest of the Hobbits.

Does the head retain the articulation at the head and neck with the TB sculpt?

Does Rit dye stink as much as the color remover?

Doesn't TB Bilbo come with a backpack or something as well? What is its quality like?
