Some perspective--I always loved the Kenner version.

Re: SLADE'S LOVE PALACE FOR ACTION FIGURES
UPDATES!!!
Medicom Spider-man 3. I like the old school/ninja look of this figure. The more subtle blue and red tones, the small Ditko eyes, the pleather--my only complaint is where the neck meets the shoulders--it's a lil too thick.
Hot Toys Director George Lucas. I really don't plan on going hog-wild for SS SW, but they finally deserve their own shelf w/ Lucas. When are we getting a Lando BTW?
Hot Toys Endoskeleton. Bad-ass. Simply bad-ass. Everyone wave good-bye to the Aoshima Endo. Fly, fly, fly. Fly, FLY, FLY.
My new Indie Comics Shelf. The Pitt Build-a-figure was hard to pass up, so I thought I'd give him some more indie company.
Love those fake Joes! 3rd from top left is new and looks like he should be in the Village People. I'm trying to complete the Agglo American Defense series from 1985. The only bad guy I need is in gray camo w/ a maroon beret and mutton chops. I love how cheesy these guys are. The leather guy is sweet, but I still like the Taliban dude the best.
You can seen how these guys got their $$$ worth with these molds.
I pity the fool who makes a figure of me that crappy AGAIN!
And in route from Hong Kong today:
We'll see how good the Sloth is--I got him WAAAY cheaper than I've ever seen him, but I'm already thinking he's gonna need a repaint from a board member. I'd hoping someone would really drool at the chance to rework Sloth. Goonies never say die!

Re: SLADE'S LOVE PALACE FOR ACTION FIGURES
Cool new figures Slade ;-)
Looks like Hot Toys has stolen your heart.
Is the Spiderman in scale with the Sideshow figures (after all Spiderman is not a tall man)

Re: SLADE'S LOVE PALACE FOR ACTION FIGURES
He's a little smaller than Wolverine--the crown of Spidey's head is even with where the forehead meets the hairline on Wolverine.
I think I despised both Spidey 3 and Ghostrider equally (which is a shame b/c Spidey 1 & 2 are genius), but the figures are really great. If the Spidey had that "raised-webbing" look to him like in the film, there's no way I would have bought him. But Medicom kept true to his roots and I really like that.

Nice collection there man, the reserection/crucifiction playset got a chuckle out of me. Not sure why, but Jesus toys allways make me laugh.
Question for you about the Flannel figure
Is that George a Custom you did, or is it one you picked up somewhere, the head looks like the one i see on e-bay from time to time, is it the same one? Did you repaint it, or did it come painted?

Its the Hot Toys "Director" figure, from the days before all there figure releases were on the up-and-up. Cool figure though, and great for a SW collector

Re: SLADE'S LOVE PALACE FOR ACTION FIGURES
The story I heard goes like this.... this George is by HotToys in their early years. The product was ordered off the shelf soon after release, HotToys never acquire any rights to produce the figure.

I think the head is a recast... but seems fairly well done. He doesn't come up on eBay all that often. But you can still find one at a decent enough price if you are patient.

Re: SLADE'S LOVE PALACE FOR ACTION FIGURES
I bought one of the (what I assume) recast Lucas heads on Ebay from some guy in HK.
It was really well done with a pretty decent paint apps.

Re: SLADE'S LOVE PALACE FOR ACTION FIGURES
A few weeks ago an original Hot Toys was sold for 30 dollars on eBay.
Just keep checking and you will find one

if you got one of the recast heads, what body did you put it on?

That might have been Slade's... I know he got a sweet deal on his. I was able to get mine for $45 shipped about 2 years ago.
