BlackBox 1/6 Guess Me Series - "REPLICANT KILLER"

But they're grey in one photo and green in the other?

It will be an issue with one pic having green and the other having a cooler blue tone. Notice the colour of the fur looks different? It is likely the same also, but the lack of green changes the relative colours of everything near the "blue" coat.

Yeah it’s just the lighting and camera settings.

Just got home. Holy smokes that packaging is incredible! Will post pics later tonight with some mods.

Can anyone advise on the holster? It seems way too floppy. I’m almost certain I’m putting it on wrong.

Edit. Here’s some pics, shortened the jacket fur (thanks ShortRound!) and rolled the pants up. Hit the boots and jacket with some tamiya weathering kit, really loving the way it looks. Also replaced the sculpt.


After/ before on the weathering

After seeing K's coat in person yesterday, came home and was motivated to darken it a bit more. Still need to figure out how to weather it. No experience with that.

Looks good! May I ask what body are you using?

if you guys want to weather dark clothing, black will give a "Wet" result. so if you want dirt you may want to try dark grey or weathering powder mixed with some water. you probably want some light brown too for dirt since he was in the dessert earlier.

for oil stain you want thicker Black to differentiate it from wet looks. brown usually around the edges.

and i wouldn't use edible stuff to dye them as they will give more problem later on.

It's the Jnix sculpt.

Update, left the jacket off the figure last night to let the weather master stuff set, double checked everything before I finished to make sure I didn’t get any on the sculpt or shirt, and everything checked out. Overnight one of the back fabric slots on the pants for the suspenders broke. It was an easy fix with a drop of glue, but surprised that one broke so quickly. Hopefully the other 3 don’t have that problem.

Thanks. He’s on a TFA Han Solo body. Very similar to a TTM21.

TFA body looks the same as the standard narrow shoulder body and the 3rd party copies on ebay which i think most 3rd party brands are now using?

Just double checking if anyone had any tips on the holster. I have the elastic on the right shoulder and the holster on the right but it seems like theirs about 1” excess on the elastic.

Also here’s where I’m at with mine.

 

[ShortRound]

Looks great Zack! As for the holster, take a look at the proto on the first page. Elastic loop should go through right side and holster should hang on his left side.

Yeah I have it like that but I have a ton of excess

 

[potato]

i think 1 of the straps goes along the waist.

Yeah I’m not sure. I just cut and glued the excess. Now it fits fairly well. Also swapped over to a generic slim
Shoulder body with a hard plastic neck. I feel like the box is so good on the figure I want to design an actual blade runner sleeve for it. So been working on that as well. Yes the dx and black box logos are slightly different than the actual company logos lol.

Still wondering I should use the baseline quote or the opening text for the back of the box.

Here’s my first attempt. Also made a cover for the inside.

Also made a vegas themed base.

Just got him. It’s not a bad figure for the price. This picture is more or less right out of the box.
Once again I think that people should be less concerned with being the first to post in hand pictures and spend like 10 minutes futzing before posting. This figure was already declared garbage by the first in hand pic.
Though I still believe the Supermad Toys version will be better, most likely a bash between the two will make up the best version. The boots, suspenders, shirt and gun from this version will be hard to beat. The sculpt, with a slight repaint, is not bad at all, the coat could be good with some weathering. The pants seem cheap and a body swap would no doubt be an improvement.
The box definitely can’t be beat.
