Someone wanted to see the Sideshow hat on the Orlock sculpt. I forgot who it was but here’s a picture. The sculpt on the hat is nice and soft so if you wanted to go this route, I would have almost no worries that it would scratch the paint.
Matrix already took one, but dang it, I took the time to get a pic so I better post it.

I usually get small name plates and with double sided tape I stick them to the front of Sideshow stands, environmental stands, and occasionally I’ll get a larger freestanding logo…
Congrats to those who got this looks great. I'd love to see them tackle London after midnight and Frankenstein.
..also Phantom of the opera ..Anyway something Old classics horror movies

I just saw this film in the theater with my brother. Nice to see it that way. Even though I own the blu. Was surprised at how many were in attendance for a 100 year old film.
Nosferatu was (maybe still is) a staple at the Cathedral of St. John The Devine in uptown Manhattan, NYC for their halloween festivals. They would have special lighting throughout the space and fog machines. They would show the film (with live music), then have a spooky parade with lots of amazingly elaborate costumes and photo ops. The Cathedral was the perfect setting, and hundreds of people attend every year. Lots of fun!
Gorgeous set up and display Matrix69

Now , this right here is the proper way to display something of this nature. Not sitting in the floor of an already overstuffed room. Or worse, left in the box and not displayed at all. Lovely!
I've only just now realized that the hair behind the hears on the non-hatted head is real. 
i wouldn't call it hair. maybe fuzz?

Well, I know what I'm adding to my bucket list.
I modified the old SS version so i can display both sculpts and extra arms. It's not perfect but i'm happy enough.
For those interested.. the body is from BCS, minus the forearms. I added shrink tubing to the joint pegs to give them more of a snug fit for the KP arms.
Reworked the SS boots to accept foot pegs. Fitted magnets into the base of the boots and tightened up all the leg joints so he doesn't topple over on the magnetic base.
The collar of the coat i reworked by using some of the excess material inside it. I also bulked up the shoulders. Would still like to add some real 1/6 buttons to it at some stage.

Fantastic work, Matrix! I'll be doing my best to use the the old SSC figure as well. I'll reference yours. I've heard of shrink tuning before but never had the opportunity to use it so I'll have a go with it here.
Here of some shots. Having a little fun with the filters.

I'm not sure how you made the old SSC coat look that sharp but I'm all ears. I'd like to know more about the body, too. Did you use different legs attached the BCS body? Any and all info you have I'd love to know.
Anyone know the actual color of the coat in the film? Sideshow started out with that burgundy color than a tanish-brown for the premium format. Now KP has this grey-brown color. Only things in common is everyone seems to agree it wasn’t just black.
