[Deckard]

look at the Mattel heads and look at these, one has a neck...

Thanks.

Truetypes - knew I should have bought more of those when they
came out. Now it seems most places except ebay are sold out..

I'm having Seb throw mine together and he is using the TTL bodies.

 

[ProgMatinee]

do the TTLs come in different heights/adjustable?

The reason I am going with SSC Bucks is because it you can use a tall SSC body for Egon and regulars for the rest.

 

[Mr.E]

The TTL's are comparable to the TrueTypes. We've been discussing this very topic here:

I'm sure you can gimmick around and adjust heights to your liking. Harold Ramis was only slighty taller than the other GB's.

Cheers.

Yeah. I was surprised by this. Dan Ackroyd is way taller than I thought he was. I gave up on using seperate bodies to make them different heights.

 

[Hound]

Wow, these look amazing. Wish I could get them.

 

[bttfspencer]

you did a good job.

 

[ProgMatinee]

maybe i won't worry about the height difference either. i could really use that tall buck for a different project.

I ended up using these ones. Got 4 of them off of Ebay. Just did a search for '1/6 web-belt' and got this one listed as DID Soldier Story, etc. so I'm not sure 'exactly' which figure it's from.

The pic made it look more cream/beige, which I thought would be perfect, but when I actually got them, they were more 'army green', so I'll have to bleach/dye them.

So how did the bleaching go? Did it work?

Got my set of four painted heads - they look GREAT.

Thanks Spenser!

Haven't got to it yet. Just building up all the pieces for the customs. I'm sure once Venkman is in-hand, I'll speed up the process. Stay tuned...

If the bleach doesn't go well, I used a watered down gray paint for my belts

Hope that helps!

That looks AMAZING Jon! Thanks for the tip.

And since I have 4 of those flight suits and am in for 4 of your elbow pad sets, your close-up is almost EXACTLY how my customs will eventually look (except you have a nicer key ring thingy...)

 

[Wor-Gar]

That belt painted does look great!

I hope there's still some elbow pads available. Now that Venkman is coming this month, I will finally be able and motivated to build these three guys.

Gotta start gathering the replacement gear...

 

[Lord Vicious]

Crap, I finally buckled under all the pressure of seeing these awesome customs and bought my first Mattel Ghostbuster on evilbay.
Actually it was a customised one, using a Spenser Venkman sculpt. So now I need Stantz and Spengler too.

Anyone have any ideas where I could still find one at a decent price?

 

[madeinsocal6]

Any news on when these last two sets may be done?
