The Beatles Official Project Thread

I'd just be in for Ringo if that's possible.

EDIT: Paul as well

 

[pjam]

is it confirmed that the 69 set is getting made also ?if not i still want the 64 set i dunno about adding the guitars and all that stuff

Yes, 69 set is coming after the Fab Four set as far as I know...

Quick update:

I think we're up to 23 Freaks interested in Fab Four Heads.

What will prolly happen is spenser will simply post pics of the sculpts and take orders directly. I will list members who expressed interest in chron order.

Note: Others posting project info (Guitar sourcing, etc.) should prolly do so here in the Project thread as the other is a poll thread.

 

[EdwardNashton1]

Is it possible though to order just two heads?

I'm pretty sure spenser will be happy to honor partial set orders. I believe he has done that with Ghostbusters as well.

Spencer charged 120$ for the unpainted set of 4 ghostbuster heads. I am not sure if he will charge the same for these, but it gives you an idea.

Thanks! Yes. Way too pricy. The man is a sculpting genius though and if you could all collect some suits/instruments, you'd have a pretty impressive display!

Way too pricey? Really? $30/head shipped? I don't think so...

This is actually a pretty low price for a Custom Sculpted head. And for a Custom Sculpted Beatles head it's a dream come true for a lot of people. I wonder how many customs you've put together. Not to be snippy but I have quite a few and it's pretty much the norm.

How much interest is there in guitars? I'm going to try and come up with a prototype for George's this week, just to see what's possible.

Cool, I'm in

 

[Spenser]

Just to confirm the unpainted set will be $120. They will be drilled and be in caucasian flesh tented resin.

You misunderstood. Spenser's prices are a steal and his sculpts are amazing. I own his Alfred so know first hand how great his work can be.

But to get all of these heads ($120), have someone paint them (who knows how much!), find 4 bodies (around $40 if I go the cheap route or around $120 if I do TT), 4 suits, and those custom instruments? There lies the "way too pricy" for me. I'm a huge Beatles fan but can't justify the cost as much as I'd love to own these

Well you don't have to do it at once. Do it little by little.. bit by bit. Thats how I will do mine.

Yeah, I understand. BUT they will be priceless when done.

Hey Pix, I don't know if it was you who contacted that 1/4 Guitar guy or maybe it was station, but I wonder if he'll do a run of Harrison Gretsch's.

Someone please check on this if possible because I think there would be strong enough interest for him to do a run...

 

[Station]

It wasn't me. I'm in the process of sculpting to see if I can get a mold together for georges.

Will painted sets be offered too?

 

[EdwardNashton1]

I'd like to know if they are painted sets as well........i can't paint it myself...

Great news Spenser,

Just curious if you'll be trying to do a rooted hair version. And if you do and it comes out well, if you'll offer "Mop Top" Heads.

Maybe it's a bit too soon to answer that but it's definitely something to think about for Beatle heads, especially.

 

[pjam]

Has anyone thought about sourcing outfits yet?

 

[Alice Adrenochrome]

1/6 scale Beatles = lovely! I hope someone starts an initiative like this for Kraftwerk some time too.

Terrific idea, Alice.

We should hopefully be receiving an update from Spenser soon.

In the meantime...

Happy Thanksgiving!
