Your Latest Purchase...

Latest purchases... or latest re-discoveries:


I found a couple of unopened parcels while I was cleaning out under my work table today. I think I kind of remember what is probably in them: bodies and parts for a project I was enthusiastic about a few months ago in which I have now almost completely lost interest. I suppose I should open up the shipping cartons to be sure. I'll get around to it one of these days, maybe.

Sorry to hear, David. Hope you’re not losing interest in the hobby.

I am losing interest at the moment, but I suspect it is a temporary lull while I am distracted by real life nonsense.

You never know Dave, once you open them, the interest may come flooding back

Mark, those are two great additions for sure!
And David, real life nonsense I can understand. There seems to be a lot of that going around.
Maybe the interest will spark up again once things calm down.

@Stryker2011
I am on the fence when it comes to Redman Toys. I guess they sometimes offer characters other companies are not offering, which is good.

@ddavid
I sense you were possibly hyped configuring what was required and placing orders. Then once everything arrived, the realization settled in, further input was required from you to make it happen. Laziness prevailed ;D
I have felt this way in the past, when it came to my Mathilda kitbash. I am 95% there now.
You should open those boxes, then maybe you will find some motivation.

Glad to hear it, Mark (products living up to expectation).

David, keep at it, it will come back.

That is exactly what transpired!


.

Jiaou female action figure bodies (10E) x3
TBLeague female action figure body (S41) with head x1
TBLeague male action figure body (M32) x1

Did a rash purchase.... because I had preordered the S49 body from my local dealer.....

Long story short.... after 2 nights of online browsing, and 3 weeks of sea shipping.

Here's Misato Katsuragi, a W.I.P., (Neon Genesis Evangelion)



Still have lots of details to add, but the dress is form fitting which is good.

Glad to see you pursuing your mission to recreate these characters in sixth scale, valentin.

David, I don't think you'll regret the TBLeague bodies... the Jiaous... I don't know.

My latest sin:





As always I purchase figures based on value and whether I like the look or not, I have no attachment or history with the franchise, It is a Phicen body, with two headsculpts, so of course I purchased it.

I really like it, it is better than I expected.

Looks like a nice grab.

I am in love with this new outfit made by XiangXiang Zu.  It is so splendidly made she/he must have used a little magic!  Now I'm broke...but still buying stuff anyway.

They both come with some nice items for cheap bootleg figures, but much of it is tiny (like pocket watches, which I haven’t had time to mess with

I don't know about everyone else but since I am more into the 'Old Timey Days' than Sci-Fi I have huge expectations for your Old West project, sooooo, don't let me down, lol!

Well, I don’t have a lot of stuff yet, but you can check out some progress here:

The outfit looks great, Melancolia. Is that the S42 head?

Thanks Xavion, and yes, that head was a recent purchase.  I'd been wanting it for a long time but it was out of my price range.  Finally found it on Aliexpress for under $50.00.

I may have to start hunting for one. I’m looking for a replacement for the X2Y Plant Controller (Poison Ivy), and that’s one of the few I’ve seen with pale skin and red hair.

It's from the Ironfinger Toy Store on Aliexpress:| TBLeague 1/6 PLLB2020-S42 Pale Color Beauty Red Long Hair Vivid Head Sculpture For 12inch Action Figures Collection.   I have seen them on E-bay also.  And there are always red wigs, such as this one I put on an old school Kimi Toys head

Oh wow! The KT004 looks fantastic with red hair! Where did you get that wig from?

Thanks.  It's another Aliexpress find, back when I figured it was cheaper to change haircolor than buy a bunch of different heads...that idea didn't pan out too well, I have an abundance of heads I've purchased since then...

Hah! I might try it anyway. I, too, have waaay too many heads I never used, because I kept finding ones that look even closer to what I had in mind.

I agree Diana! Kat from the Angels is very jealous!

Speaking of head sculpts, found this stunner while perusing some stores on the net. Never saw her before, but had to snatch her right up and named her Aphrodite:

My latest purchase is my first purchase. I chose TBLeague small bust, pale female body. I bought a few extra accessories.

I received my Super Duck SDH018C in today.  She has reddish brown hair and hazel eyes, but will serve as a placeholder for Poison Ivy until I find what I’m looking for in a head sculpt with red hair and green eyes.  Maybe I’ll just pretend she’s from a parallel universe and call her Poison Oak.    



Here’s a third party shot of the head since my mad photography skills don’t do it justice.

Jazz Inc 1:6 1966 Batmobile. I got this bad boy in yesterday. I'm feeling extremely BLESSED. Thank you LORD! Please enjoy...

Wow, that is nice AFM2! Great looking Batman and Robin too!

Oh, wow! That Batmobile is bat-tastic! As in, the coolest 1/6-scale vehicle ever in the history of ever!
