Speculation - MAD MAX/ROAD WARRIOR Thread

[shells075]

All those Max are looking awesome.

I finally work on that Iminime Riggs head I had for years. Removed the sculpted hair, painted the head and applied hair to the head.

Haven't painted the eyes yet

Looks fantastic, putting together your own MM is a lot of fun.

That opening narration has become strangely prescient.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, listening to the narrator.

Great looking Max, Shells!

Too many projects in progress at the moment but I would really love to eventually have a "Road Warrior" Max figure in the collection.

Looks amazing shells, quick question are the leathers worth using from the vts figure? Or not accurate enough

Yes, they are the best mass-produced Mad Max clothing set (accurate to both Beyond Thunderdome and Fury Road in terms of overall design). With a little work, they can look even better.

Thanks, K.bowen...
Blog deleted now, apologies - Besides, there's plenty of mass-produced figures being/about to be released. PERFECT if you're not too fussed on accuracy (a likeness for example) they're sure to please the masses - no need for my blog cloggin' up progress.

I'll just leave my favourite pic of my favourite figure here... 'nuff said!

Max's name is Max Rockatansky. Mad Max is just the movie title. Nobody calls him Mad Max in the movies (I think).

They don't, they usually call him wonderer, raggedy man, road warrior, stranger. Not counting the whole captain name the kids called him in BTD. The first film they just call him by his first name and that's it but that to me has more to do with family and friends then people in general.

His MFP pursuit car (the yellow sedan) also has a sign on the side that refers to him as "The Dark One"

 

[Mr.E]

For those interested, I still offer custom made boots from Road Warrior and Fury Road (and a few others). Here are some of the most recent commissions including two Fury Roads and a pair of Negan boots:

Looking great, ombudsman!

I'm taking it your point is about the stand...?

I don't think ROCKATANSKY has the snappy-ness of "MAD" and hey! I'm a Brit - the "Road Warrior" was just a title they used to attract the small-brained, action-fans from the US of A!!! As a side point... I remember watching the original BEFORE the naff accents were dubbed onto it.

I just called him "MAD MAX" not Road Warrior, The Wasteland Warrior/Wanderer not 1, or 2, or even 3 - cos this is for me, my defining Max. He's MAD MAX - cos he's mine... simple as that!
