Very nicely done, onesixthwarrior!

Not too shabby Greg.

Glad to read you picked it up on sale and you're happy with it.

Thanks, GubernatorFan!

My latest purchase is wood chairs and end tables for the guild hall. Maybe reusable for two guild halls by changing banners and other décor.

And he arrived last week.  :}

Superior head sculpt! I really like this!

Thanks, Pontiacivan! He is a hottie! He's made me redo some casting. Tenzin isn't so thrilled about the competition. =.=


Here are the new chairs and tables. And having too much fun with flexible action figure hands. (^o^)

Cute. Fighting over a girl. How very... male. (I remember 2 boys in grade school who started a “war” (all in good fun, of course... back when kids could still do that) over a girl that we enacted over the course of the entire year during recess. Good times.) Hopefully your girl will do the right thing and pick one (or neither), and stop the fight before it begins...

I agree with Stryker. Cute scene. I got the same chairs and table sometime ago, although I really wanted the alternative (which was sold out).

I’ve seen those chairs and table set, really nice. What was the alternative version?

Stryker2011 wrote:I’ve seen those chairs and table set, really nice. What was the alternative version?

They were being sold as alternatives A and B. This was A. B also had a table and two chairs, also wooden; the pieces were a bit more modern looking, the chairs had different back and arm rests, curved a bit like bow.

Neat. I guess the only ones I’d ever seen were the Asian style.

Stryker, I think set B is also Asian style, just not as traditional.

I can actually use that set for a simple diorama.

I want to create/set up my own weekly 1:6 diorama skit show.  Something like a 1:6 version of FIRING LINE where two 1:6 figures discuss the week's events or a current/relevant topic in the 1:6 hobby.  One would be an esteemed and knowledgeable host figure and the other would be a rotating weekly guest figure.

That sounds like an interesting idea. And unless it gets too controversial or political, something that might be fun to see here.

EXAMPLE . . .

Welcome to 1:6 FIRING LINE.

With your host . . . Dee Ephcee (1:6 female figure).

Welcome to 1:6 FIRING LINE.  I'm your host, Dee Ephcee.  Today's show will discuss the current trend of how there are many different 1:6 head sculpts, but not necessarily enough complementing 1:6 jointed and seamless bodies that will properly match.  How and why is that?  My guest today is "Red Sonja 1.0" from PHICEN/TBLeague.  She'll be conveying her thoughts on the matter along with other observations and views. We'll return after a brief message from our sponsors.

1:6 FIRING LINE is proudly sponsored by . . .

THE PERFECT FIGURE TOYS & COLLECTIBLES . . . the best selection, price, and proven reliable service within the 1:6 hobby.  Servicing the needs of 1:6 collectors since 2017.

BLACK OPS TOYS . . . fulfilling the 1:6 armaments needs of discriminating 1:6 military, paramilitary, and civilian themed collectors.

1:6 FIRING LINE is a DFC Enterprises production in cooperation with OSF.

My latest purchase is a bunch of loose items from JP Hobbies; got the email from Jason a few days ago stating that he was getting out of the 1:6 business, and is selling off his remaining stock at a 40% discount.

Slow through UK customs and ParcelForce, but it’s here. Happy!

I just placed an order with GeeWhiz Customs for a custom figure of The Flash from the 1990-91 TV series that starred John Wesley Shipp. It's the most expensive figure I've ever purchased, and I'm paying in two installments! Take a look at the photo below:

Holy crap, that costume looks incredible. That material is so perfect, and GeeWhiz really does do incredible looking work. I have a feeling you'll be real happy with it when it shows up.

Mark, I think it had something to do with the fact that I was linking to the photo on the SSF board. I have downloaded the photo and have uploaded and linked to my Imgur account, so there shouldn't be a problem now.

Thanks for the heads-up!

David

Yep. It's there. And damn that looks awesome. Now that is how Flash should look (not that horrible design they did for the JL movie). GeeWhiz does some amazing work, that's for sure.

I just ordered something 1:6 related; the documentary film MARWENCOL on Blu-ray, and I'm looking forward to watching it!

Cool. I remember reading about that a few years back. Sad, but inspiring story. Let us know what you think.

I purchased something on eBay for one of my Deadpool figures; it's a left hand giving the middle finger "salute". Here's a photo:

Ha! I ordered one of those, too. Though I don’t have a Deadpool figure (yet).

 Nice.

I just pre-ordered the Hot Toys Deadpool 2 figure from Sideshow; price is $251 with a non-refundable $25 deposit, and shipping to be calculated later.

I'll likely pre-order one (or two) as well. I skipped the first/original one from HT, but the 2.0 version looks damn good.

I still have the Sideshow version though.

Just ordered Asmus' THE HATEFUL EIGHT John Ruth (Kurt Russell) figure from Big Bad Toy Store; the figure cost $199.99, but flat rate shipping was only $4!

Michael’s review pushed you over the edge, didn’t it.
