1/6 SSC Snake Plissken Figure

[Jameson Rook]

Thanks guys, yeah the sculpt is fantastic but Sideshow never lets us down with crappy paints, I've honestly never seen a SSC 1/6 figure with decent paint out of the box.

Edit: I just checked how much he's going for on eBay, madness!

Sideshow's Ash really great

Wow, yeah the Snake fig has really shot up in price. Always regret not picking Sideshows Ash.

People weren't buying it when it was $160 because it was such a crap figure.

What would posess someone to buy it for $350??

 

[JacktheRipper]

It wasn't a complete disaster of a figure. Did it sell well? Probably not. There are not that many options for a Plissken figure, so prices will creep up if there is a demand no matter how small.

When I ordered this, I had to get a replacement shipment processed by the retailer because the UPS vehicle it was in during its first leg in transit got onto a mishap and all the packages were written off as destroyed. I wonder what happened to that figure, maybe someone in the crew responsible for cleaning up that mess salvaged it? There could be a “lost” SS Snake Plissken standing on someone’s mantle, or it could be some dog’s chew toy, lol!

Probably ended up in landfill, thats probably where a lot of our figs will end up in the end.

So is $225.00 a fairly good price for a NIB one? It's hard to keep track anymore. (Or my 2020 is bleeding into my 2021. Hard to tell. )

 

[Mr.E]

That's reasonable.

I modded the heck of of this. It is actually quite a gook likeness with a re-paint and weathering of basically everything that came with him....I was happy to pick this up for retail when it was released...

Hey guys is been a long time since I have posted anything. I'm looking for any pointers on how to weather the jacket. Any info is appreciated.

What I did was drybrush at the edges of the jacket, I used yellow ochre primarily but also mixed in some reds, blues etc. With light drybrushing you'll eventually get a weathered look.

I also sometimes use a fine grit sandpaper if I'm wanting to weather a lot.

My MCU collecting has pretty much come go a dead stop with all the new shows not doing it for me so I've started to move more towards other films I really enjoy, but have never collected.

Decided to pick up SSC snake plissken. Not as bad as I imagined, but definitely some pain points. Made a little afternoon of weathering and painting up the jacket. I like him a lot!
