Mad Max Custom Thread

[Toy Anxiety]

Hey guys. I have 1 kit left if anyone is still interested. It is $75, which is a 15% discount off the regular prices. PM if interested. If no one claims it by the weekend, we'll part it out and put on our site at the normal individual prices.

On another note, sounds like the shoulder and knee pads have been cast, and I should receive them next week at which point we'll get them completed and available on our site ASAP. Will of course let everyone know here when they're ready and available.

He's not done yet, still need to pick up some more bits and pieces here and there, boots, guns, belts, etc. I also need to darken the tunic as well. Hope you guys like him so far. Cheers mates.

 

[Mighty_Jabba]

Looks great so far.

 

[Mr.E]

This is the look I am after, plus THE actual head I bought from Chris:

You guys don't think the head is out of scale at all do you? Maybe I'm just seeing things.

Out of scale how ? Too big or too small ? I think it looks great. Looking forward to seeing it finished BTW!

 

[Mr.E]

Well, next to my VM "Blondie", the head looks a *tad* small. Man, Hot toys really needs to produce differing height bodies I think. Mel's not a shrimp, but he's not a big guy either. Ahhh, I dont know haha.

 

[Mr.E]

How is everyone else's Max bash's comin along???

 

[Wor-Gar]

I still need Max clothing!

Got my Wastelander sculpt last week. The sculpt looks good. Will be having the boardie master paint it up for me.

It came drilled, but I don't know what for. The hole is way to small for a HT/SS/Dragon neck. And being off center can't be redrilled. The neck also looks too thin to drill for a HT/SS/Dragon neck, so that may be why the small hole. Guess I'll just have to cut off the post and glue to the neck . . .

 

[Mr.E]

I used a dremel tool to enlarge the neck hole to fit on the TTL neck adaptor, it worked like a charm. The little "sanding wheel" bit is the attachment I used on the dremel.

More leg braces coming as well...?

Sorry, in and out of the loop these days - is this a recast, and whose is it if so?

Yes, its a recast of a head I had commissioned.

 

[JeffTVR]

Are the shoulder and knee pads available yet? I am itching to get started! Cheers.

 

[Reinhardt]

That looks like Chris Howes's work.

Always with the delays. We were told the castings would be shipped on Tuesday, but have not had confirmation of that. Once we receive them, we'll get them together and they'll be on the site ASAP.

 

[JeffTVR]

Brilliant, thanks for the update!

 

[Cheungkinmen]

I'm sorry if this is already known but "In House Productions" will be releasing a jacket set, the jacket looks a lot like the jacket on the film.

Is still on preorder (in store-rooms). Sorry for hijacking the thread or something, just wanted to share.

We now have a few of Dinki-Di cans that have been painted with labels applied for those who do not wish to do the work.
