Please help me find... (continuously updated)

Yeah, Shuri would have been ideal but urgh, money and urgh, sculpted on bits. D:

It’s actually ridiculous how few POC sculpts there are in 1/6th scale, same with the skin tones in general.

Yes, the lack of that has been a frequent topic of discussion and source of frustration for many here on this forum. :/

Really wish some 1/6 company would get the hint and take up the slack ...

The chin piece on Shuri can be removed with effort, but you need to be good with a Dremel to smooth the remaining surface into shape, then repaint it. I am not quite finished with my modification of it, but trying to get there.

There are plenty of male POC heads out there, but only two female (one not so good, one requires serious modification skills and costs a small fortune). It’s absolutely tragic how limited this hobby still is.

DR Who 12 inch figure line had a good one, forget the characters name as never watched the show but was based on actress Freema Agyeman

Yeah, I’ve got her already! I’ve been watching a few on eBay in case I can get one cheap. The body’s pretty good too but obviously if I take the head off one then I’m left in a quandary! XD

at the very least, just the outfit/some suggestions to something similar.
I just want to put my Jean figure in this outfit, but would also like to own this figure if possible.

Well, I managed to find someone who is willing to make this outfit for me—YAY!

Now, I need boots! Anyone know where I can her lace up brown boots? Will need to be hollow for feet and my phicen body has attached feet.

Doesn’t need to be exact to these,but close enough

Glad you found someone to help!  

Re: boots... these ones are hollow:

Photos in the listing say otherwise, unfortunately

I own several pairs of these in both black and brown colours and can guarantee they are empty/hollow inside. : )

Oh ok! Weird that they have it listed like that, then.
Those are actually one ones I’ve been eyeing. Thanks!

No problem! and yes, I check that first link and it does seem rather misleading. If you look at other listings that have it [for cheaper prices too!] they don't include those super confusing pics.

I wouldn’t care if I had some extra bodies with detachable feet, but I don’t at the moment, so gotta work with what I have!

No worries! If you do go for those, just be aware you will probably have to heat them up before being able to get them on the figure. They will seem rock hard when they arrive, but heating them up makes them quite malleable.

huge huge long shot - but does anyone have any of this uniform available? Shirt and pants? Looking for multiple but aware will be lucky to get just one! haha

Echobase Toys has pants and jackets at the moment, no shirts.

thanks - they are armoury sets. I am specifically after this set....it was a carded set from Soldier Story

hi all

desperately looking for the Soldier Story flecktarn uniform sets....shirt and trousers on own just fine.

Can anyone help??

Do you mean this one:

thanks, but not the one..I meant this one, which is from 2009 I believe

Currently on the look out for a few things....

First, I am wondering what happened to the upgraded female PopToys bodies? I am trying to track down a small bust, 'semi-seamless' PopToys body in suntan skintone, but all the listings I've encountered are sold out of that particular version. Feels like I blinked and missed those... :/

Similarly, I was hoping to acquire the Elizabeth I PopToys (aka Cate Blanchett) headsculpt, but have not seen it parted out anywhere. I'm guessing I just missed it, but asking in case anyone happens to see it available.

Finally, I'm curious if anyone makes knock-off 'Hot Toys'-style action figure stands... aka, the rectangular base type. Obviously there are plenty of cheap action figure stands available, but those are usually the oval shaped ones, or the more fancy dynamic stands. I have a couple of kitbashed HT figures that need stands, and wanted to keep all the HT stuff more streamlined in appearance, but purchasing loose HT stands (which often go for £30+) gets expensive fast. I'm guessing the answer is 'no', but asking just in case... ;p

Have you looked under Xing bodies? You might be able to find them that way.

Ah, thanks! That was indeed the missing word in my search. Found the small bust one that I was looking for. I've been wanting to use it to upgrade the Beth figure I made last year, since the neck gap on it was preventing me from doing anything but really boring poses. Fingers crossed the modified version will solve that...

They have the Poptoys Elizabeth parted out on Evilbay, but they want a pretty penny for her head sculpt.

Thanks for the heads-up, Nekkra! I guess I must have just missed those in my last search. You are right though, a bit pricey.... I guess they know that it's a fairly sought-after headsculpt...

Which semi seamless body are you looking for, the one with seamless arms and legs? I ordered one some time ago and it never arrived, asked the seller and they said something about production problems and that they haven't received any yet... (although listed as available first)

Yes, the one with seamless arms and legs... I think it's the PopToys 'Xing' body, but the upgraded/modified version.
