[The Josh]

I'll have mine Monday. He looks pretty darn good overall. Am starting to feel a little undecided on the hair though.

 

[Big Daddy Kel]

Mine will be in on Wednesday.

 

[galactiboy]

Mine is currently "out for delivery"

 

[Sick Boy 82]

Finally got my deliver notice last night!!!!

nice pics mike....

something is bugging me about this figure though after seeing it & watching the dead graphical account. overall he doesnt look burnt enough. i mean his skin does a bit but overall he doesnt have that burnt up look. or is the pics just not showing this. im sure it would be an easy fix to slap some charcoal and ash on him (would give him that scratch and sniff realism as well ) to make him more accurate to the spook clip. i mean the wolf did set him on fire did he not??

Thats what I did with mine Barry! Broke out the old charcoal pencil from art class and blackened him up.

Just got in my Street Prophet... have to say he's one of my favorite in the series so far. I'd say he's on par with the Security guard.

The sculpt is great and he has very nice paint work. I'll agree he doesn't seem burnt; but sure looks like he's been through hell The hair actually lays pretty well with minor futzing and the outfit and rest of him works well. Even the sign looks okay in person, nothing groundbreaking; but not bad like I thought it would.

Only really negative is the hobo bindle, its too clean and a very meh exclusive. Severed leg is by far the coolest accessory that he comes with and probably for the series as a whole. And as always the Buck works well with zombies.

did you use water or a hair gel.............i hear dapper dan does wonders....
i see the sign as the weakest link from the pics...........whats it made of??? if its cardboard i see a bic lighter burning along the edge of it and some dirtying up for a quick fix.......

 

[galactiboy]

It is just thin card stock... and I just smoothed the hair with my fingers; no product used.

 

[The Mike]

He doesn't look burnt more like he has been in the ground for years...you have a weird sticky glossy mummy look to him more than anything. Still my absolute favorite.

 

[barryo]

yea those eyeballs definately have that goopy slimey look to them..........just like a real zombie would have......

dammit come on monday......

edit:.............i didnt read your post mike..........your sig has me quite mesmerized...

Wouldn't you also have to burn his clothes a bit? small holes n all?

My fav pic, looks so lifelike.

His face should be a bit more sweaty,glossy. Just a minor detail.

 

[GrueSam]

Yeah- with his eyes so sunken, I bet he would be a bit shiney... and gooey, too!

that may be the pics........look at mikes & then gb's.........for some reason im seeing more gloss on gb's plus it looks a lil darker. i've taken enough digital pics to know that every camera is different & one setting can make the exact same figure look different, so.........
but to answer your first question........yes i would have his clothes more burnt looking ....YES !!! BACK TO THE OLD SCHOOL METHOD OF LIGHTER FLUID & A MATCH !!!.........freaky styley.....


edit: by lifelike you meant living deadlike right???.......

 

[galactiboy]

I usually try to match up the look of the figure with my pictures... so in hand (at least mine) looks pretty close to what you see color wise. But of course, different lighting will make a difference.

Mine definitely doesn't look as light as Mike's photo.

 

[The Josh]

Nice shots GB! Just the little work you did with the hair makes it look better.

Can either hand hold the leg?

Looking forward to Monday when my Ex will be here.

 

[The Mike]

You guys have to remember that my second set, is under fluorescent light. The light is brighter than natural light obviously.

Can either hand hold the leg?

Yeah, they both can but it does stretch out the hand a bit...I liked it better with the piece on the ground as if he had just discarded it though.

 

[panzerwerk]

just got mine today , Best Dead yet in my opinion .

 

[The Josh]

Thats ok. I want him holding the leg but wanted to make sure he could.
