NEW PRODUCT: Mr.Z: simulation animal 37th-1/6 ratio German Great Dane German Great Dane - full set of 6 colors

Well, I’ve Ben looking over some sculpts to bash/customizes to use for Fred and Shaggy. These are the ones I’m looking at for Fred:







And these are the ones I was thinking for Shaggy:




I only want to use one for each, I’m just not sure which one. Suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm very far from being an expert on these guys, and I realize you may be going for a specific style that I might not be familiar with. That said, I think the first one (which was maybe supposed to be Chris Pine) with a hair dye might work best for Fred. For Shaggy the last one is overly specific as an expression, so I'd go with the penultimate one with glued-on hair.

I've thought about sculpts, and looked through retailers' lists, but am still stumped.

Throughout the cartoons and comics I think Fred has had a fairly standard look: fresh-faced, blond teen.

Shaggy has been depicted with more variety, and at some point he began growing a proper beard.

He's quite different in the Scooby Apocalypse comic, and was shown with anything from a goatee to a full beard:





He looked a little too 'preened' rather than 'shaggy', and reminded me more of comic book Oliver Queen.

I prefer the Matthew Lillard look.




After a quick search on OSK just now saw this Quicksilver sculpt which might work with a hair repaint:




Yet, it doesn't evoke his character in the way those Facepool sculpts do.

I thought of that KO Quicksilver, as well — but as you say, it seems a bit intense. I thought Mathew Lollards captured the essence of Shaggy perfectly (better than any of the others in those movies), but finding the appropriate head has been... challenging, to say the least.

I too prefer the Chris Pine head (it’s pretty spendy, however, and I was also thinking of making a Steve Majors out of that one (if I can find the appropriate clothing for him to have him next to Wonder Woman).

This could work for Fred if the hair was repainted, as it has a quirky expression:

I wouldn't mind making a Fred and Shaggy to complete the team, but the postage situation at the moment is a great barrier.

Are you sorted for the outfits? I know there was a set made under the Barbie brand, but they seem expensive just to get for the clothes.

No, I don't have the clothes for either of them. (I'm just trying to plan ahead -- maybe I can get AJ Clothiers to throw something together, since neither of their clothes are really all that complicated.) That's another good option for Fred. I know they sometimes make him come across as nerdy and what-not, but as a kid, I always thought of him as a 50's style jock -- at least that's how he seemed in the original Scooby cartoon (anything after that, I can pretty much live without).

It's one of those projects I think about every now and then, but get dissuaded by the lack of an easy source of clothing or sculpts.

I live in hope that something might turn up they way the Flirty Girl sets did.
