OK I have the Retro Peter Venkman figure (Citizen Ghost Green Variant) and I need this to be done:

4 Cast Mego type T2 bodies in the same color green (Mattel's bodies are crap!!)
Cast heads of Egon,Ray & Winston

Since Mattel canceled the line we are not getting the other 3 Ghost versions of these characters so I thought I would ask

PLMK

Like this:



I need the Egon,Ray & Winston heads to look just like this Peter Venkman head and the same color type body of a T2 Type Mego Body:



(The CTVT version from pic)

P.S. also if someone can cast the upper arms from the Mattel figure in the same color as the original spirit figure I can work that as well.

i dunno how many on this forum have casting experience and i only started last november. i've seen a few here and there toying with 1:18th scale headsculpts but not at this level.

the main thing is getting the color match since that green is like this luminescent kind that i wouldn't know how to replicate. and there's 2 types of green in that venkman toy. the light green waxy head type and the light transparent green of the body. i can get it to a very clear green but can't get it that semi transparent light green. but outside of that is the need for the mego body in question as well as having all 3 of the other headsculpts to work from. never owned a mego figure so i don't know how easy they are to part out for casting purposes.

it's a tall order but not impossible. it's just i dunno how many on this forum can actually do it.

Yeah, it seems like it would cost some serious cash to produce those. If you can find a guy who is planning to make a lot of them or is already working on it, then that would be your best bet. This just sounds expensive.
