Lol,not really the best option,but it is an option I guess.

Just look up that description on eBay,and you'll find that head from starwars geek. I don't remember what his eBay name is,but it's different. The discription is the same.

I resized the bootleg select Mark 43 Robert Downey Jr head to both Marvel Legends&Marvel Universe scale.

This head:

Here it is reduced to 3.75"

http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/...E33664BB5A.jpg

The 6" version will be a Vortious item,and the 3.75" version my wife will end up selling on eBay in limited numbers. I gave her around a dozen copies a week or so ago,and she's fixin to list them with more The Walking Dead shrinks. I'm the guy who made TWD shrinks that come&ago on eBay...she sells them when I make spares with extra plastic from pours for personal items or commission work.

He looks more like Ricky Martin 😂

MUfan97 09-22-2016 01:12 PM

Why do cast pieces have to have such a specific search if you want to find them? Is it a legal thing, or what?

Contraband 09-22-2016 01:44 PM

Probably. Names are patented.

Lol,crappy paint apps. From what I was told it was originally supposed to come with the legit figure the mark 43 is a direct copy of,but was dropped? That's what I heard,idk if it's 100% factual tho. I do know in bare cast it looks like him,more then the hasbro head at least. Until I get a volunteer to send me a hot toys tony it'll do.

Have you ever tried shrinking a hot toys sculpt down to 375 scale?

Tried? lol. I've shrank bobble heads the size of a small child's head to 3.75"! Yeah,done it already.

Awesome, so would it be conceivable to disassemble a hot toys figure, shrink each piece and reassemble it? Then we find a tiny seamstress and were in business!

Cost is a HUGE factor! Some stuff is just not possible. You have to think about how thick an item is already,and what you'd be left with after reduction in size,plus remember hot toys uses soft goods for the clothing that won't cast... Whatever thickness you start with,that item(s) will be that many times thinner to get to 1:18 or 1:12. Parts become paper thin,eventually you start to fight parts opening up all together.

If anyone has cracked open even a 6" figure you'll see they're already not that much thicker then a 3.75" gijoe. some parts are thinner then most 3.75" figures depending on the sculpt too. A good example is Marvel Legends SDCC Shanna.

http://i1254.photobucket.com/albums/...4BA7FCF7E0.jpg

After shrinking the correctly scaled torso is as thin as or thinner then paper across the belly,waste pivot bar recess,and in the small of the back,thinner even then most mold flash! You can see light through the original 6" torso!! Shrinking it makes it 60-70% thinner as well as smaller. A belt or holster would be pretty much impossible. Reduced that much there's nothing left that wouldn't just come apart just demolding it.

In this mock up pic using scrap casts(this one had a bubble in the left cheek) you can see the modeler's clay I put inside the lower torso halves to set the gijoe T-bar right through the plastic! It's that thin!!

Yours or mine? Mine was yesterday! I already feel I've derailed this thread a little,lol. this particular photobucket is always unlocked. There's tons of stuff in there. Hot toys,TWD,bobble heads... I have a neat photobucket with a bunch of ripped apart mini trucks in various forms of completion too if you like? lol. I think I'm officially tapped on marvel 3.75" themed stuff to share photo wise! I literally just got into the movie figures!. I'm a gijoe guy,and since gijoes aren't in the store,and these are,..just started buying them. I stopped doing Marvel Legends months ago,because Select,Neca,Mcfarlane,just about everyone has way better,more realistic sculpts,that's what I like. These new movie 6" figures are getting better tho.

Looking at the shrunk female figure has confirmed what I've always thought of mu scaled female figures that have a swim suit/ body suit type outfit like Electra. And that is it the bikini area if not the whole suit should be sculpted to a certain degree if not it just looks like bad body paint

rea1180 09-23-2016 12:49 PM

I need some help. I don't really follow the comics to closely. Most of my figures are kept in small teams. I'm looking for team ideas so not everybody is in an x- man or avenger team. Also need some villain team up ideas.

Well what figures do you have? It'll help so we can tell what you could do with what you have as opposed to us just listing every hero team/group and all possible members.

Well you've got Defenders, Masters of Evil, Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Agents of Smash for your Hulks, A Force for your women. Just Google Marvel teams, there's every combination going

Anyone know of a Shane TWD head that was reduced to 1/18th for punisher?

ReIssue 09-24-2016 07:33 AM

Word up. I'm just impatient! Lol!

Contraband 09-24-2016 07:35 AM

Yup! That is what I'm waiting for:D

I'm the guy that shrank the walking dead line,and I never released Shane. The actor likeness is terrible. The shrink exists somewhere in my bowl of rejects,but you can't tell its him.

There a Netflix punisher coming out ??

Not gonna lie I wouldn't mind getting a prison brawl punisher. That scene was epic
