    1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread

    Just finished my custom - was determined to do it on a budget so this hopefully just goes to show what you can do with the Present Toys with some accurate mods - The only replacement parts are the metalwork on both belts (former bottle tops!) And the Gustavo holster... And though this...

    EXO-6 Star Trek “The Motion Picture (TMP)” Figures

    Ever since I got both the Mego 12" releases for Christmas as a child I hoped someday I'd see these get the contemporary treatment - As many have observed, these look great together - i for one can't wait to finish the display with the Captain's chair...

    Dark Toys 1/6 Rick Deckard

    Playing with poses...Wire in the belt works a treat - had it tied behind until I noticed it hangs free in the film - ...and I don't see the fuss regarding photographing the sculpt. Natural light and x2 zoom and voila...

    Dark Toys 1/6 Rick Deckard

    Mine arrived to the UK yesterday - Had low expectations but turns out to be great quality - especially the outfit. That said, for me this is the best Ford sculpt to date and is a repaint/hat away from being the best Indy too...

    Statue Sideshow Superman Chris Reeve PF 1/4 2020

    JAMES BOND - Original creations

    Its been the longest time since I visited this, my favourite thread on the board :) While the Lotus S1 build is probably the most exciting development in my absence I see we're still debating the merits of the various DC headsculpts on offer. There have been a few more pop up and its...

    JAMES BOND - Original creations

    Re: Custom JAMES BOND THREAD I agree a final verdict can't be given until it's in paint but to me, this looks pretty definitive and I've seen them all - Plain don't understand the comments about it being like a caricature - with the exception of BBKill & Modern Life most Craig portraits look...

    JAMES BOND - Original creations

    Re: Custom JAMES BOND THREAD Falling hard for this - the pics on Instagram show the profile which is incredibly sharp. What kind of price do finished heads command by this sculptor..?
