Ok guys, I know I've been teasing this for a while...I was hoping to get a better camera, but I'm stuck with just my iPhone for now. I took pics in natural light and artificial (so keep that in mind!).
When I saw the Dragon figures, I saw that the bodies would probably be bad, and the sculpts were awful. But I hoped the uniforms would be decent, and went ahead and ordered a set of the great Geometrics 12" model kits from the 90's. I picked up a set of Picard, Riker, Worf, Data, Geordi, and Troi, and decided to make all of them into 12" figures. Here are the results!
Captain Jean-Luc Picard
Recipe:
Body - Hot Toys TrueType Narrow (Gambit head)
Head - cut off from Geometrics model kit
Uniform, accessories - Dragon
Left "pointing" hand - Enterbay Mr. Bean
Notes: I'm not completely happy with the "pointing" hand, it's a little on the small side. I'm thinking of maybe trying to convert the model kit hand into one that will work with this body.
