Yes, I caved in and got a bunch of the parted-out parts from the ADD Toys King of Khalasar set, inspired by Jason Momoa's portrayal of Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones. As you can see, the product looks like the prototype and does a very good job of capturing the subject. But there are various practical issues with it. To be perfectly honest, I'm not a fan of the whole Dothraki concept and ark, especially as realized on the show (I cannot speak for the original author's creation, which I have not read) -- the Mongols who inspired them were quite different in appearance, behavior, dress, and statecraft; like the other margins of the Game of Thrones world, these never seemed particularly compelling or interesting to me. But ADD Toys did make a good representation of the character and type based on the show. The likeness of the head sculpt is quite good, I think more faithful to its subject than ADD Toys' War Wolves were to Hugh Jackman as Logan. The transition from molded hair to "real hair" braid is well done. The head might be sitting just a little bit too high on the neck. The ADD Toys seamless body is very nicely and realistically sculpted, a great visual alternative to what TBLeague, Jiaou Doll, and now LDDoll have made. As a bonus, it is also more detailed in its paint application, with both war paint stripes and painted-on hair -- though only for the parts that you see exposed, which is practical but feels like cheating to me. I knew of this limitation, and I was already very disappointed by the practical limitations (when it comes to articulation and poseability) of these bodies. I was hoping against hope that they would improve and stupidly gave them another try. I knew I should have resisted and just customized a proper TBLeague seamless body instead -- the ADD Toys body, for all of its more detailed (in part!) appearance, is still a wobbly, rickety mess to deal with (there is no complete underlying metal skeleton to ensure smooth and precise articulation). It might also be a little on the slender side for the character's appearance. I do not enjoy criticizing a product too harshly, but this is their second time, and there is no improvement. I hope I have learned my lesson this time.

Why is this not a proper review? Because I did not purchase the complete set (given how many parts I did purchase, I might as well have done so). What you see is reconstituted with the actual parted-out parts (but the hands are just random bendy hands of the right color). The outfit is pretty nicely done, but the one-piece boots are unhelpful for balance and articulation, and again the whole body's ability to balance and pose is severely restricted (it cannot even sit properly). Most collectors who do not keep their figures in their original packaging or other containers are likely to display them in some sort of museum pose. This might be ok for this purpose (just don't expect it to keep its balance forever), but I expect better from an action figure. The irony is that more people went for the parted-out body than for the parted-out head; and yet the head is infinitely better than the body.

As always, what do you think.

Aquaman Experiment - Mon Jul 27, 2020 5:11 pm

I was just goofing around a bit with the graphics software, using a couple of the photos I took for the clothing thread (HERE) that I couldn't use because they were taken against a green screen and I was blanking out on the editing.

Converting Jason Momoa HT Aquaman Head - Sun Jul 28, 2019 5:17 pm

Like so many of us, I wasn't completely satisfied with Hot Toys' Aquaman head sculpt in terms of both likeness and molded hair sculpt (which is very nice in and of itself, but hair this long should not be sculpted for various reasons). So I decided to modify it with a re-hairing and partial repaint. Here is a little summary of the progression of the project.

Although Hot Toys made the questionable decision to go with sculpted hair, it tried to improve its appearance by installing it in layers, which helps customization by easing removal and allowing for a more or less complete fully-realized head beneath. I began by carefully tugging on the soft plastic hair of the original head sculpt (1). In this instance it is composed of four different pieces glued to the head proper and to each other. Luckily, they weren't glued very strongly, and with just a little bit of persistence and repetition, I was able to begin pulling off the largest, enveloping exterior hair piece (2).

This left the pieces hanging over the sides and back of the neck (3a-3b). They were removed the same way.

Removing the pieces hanging over the side (4) and the back leave us with a bald head (except for a bit of the hairline over the forehead, which I decided to keep) which features some useful goorves carved into it (5a-5b). The reason these are useful is that without them you would end up with an even fuller, puffier hair after you glue it onto the head, and they help diminish this problem a little bit.

Next I used three different colors of hair to glue onto the bald head in tiers -- starting with a line just above the neckline running around the back of the head and moving upwards. When this step was completed, the look was a dramatic mess (6). After the glue had cured, I weeded off loose strands and rinsed the hair to make it fall a little more naturally, and painted some highlights and color variations (to match the hair) onto the molded beard, mustache, and forelock, as well as over those parts of the hair where the glue was visible; I also tried to lighten some of the painted stubble on the head (where the mustache and beard part going upwards along the jawline) to increase the likeness to Jason Momoa (7).

Finally, I cut down the hair to the correct length (with locks reaching as far down as about the armpit) and treated it with a mixture of water and shampoo+conditioner that I did not rinse off, to give it a more natural fit (8a-8b). And with that my modifications are complete.

Here is a comparison between the HT set (Aquaman from Justice League) and the same with the modified head. I should point out that I was modifying the head on principle, not specifically for this figure set or look. I am also aware that the screen look has much more emphatically bleached locks towards the lower reaches of the hair, but I wanted a slightly more organic and subdued look.

I think it turned out ok, and I hope you liked it or found it interesting. What do you think?
