Wesley appeared on both shows, and both are pretty good. You might enjoy them if you give them a shot.
Maybe, one day... there's too much stuff out there too watch. I saw the musical episode, and I liked it.
What was your impression?
From the way the figure looked like, with suit and tie and neatly combed hair, and since he comes with a book shelf and a briefcase (which I have leaning against my desk in the scene) - I thought he was some uptight bureaucrat or librarian probably. In any case boring
Then again he also comes with several weapons and that awesome weapons closet, so I figured he probably had a dark side, like Jekyll/Hyde?
So when I saw that first picture I googled I was really surprised, as the hairstyle also makes him look at least ten years younger than I had pictured him.
What really sucks is that DST was actually going to include O'Neill in that uniform in their next SG-1 wave, but then they abruptly cancelled their whole Stargate line altogether. That wave was also going to include General Hammond and Ba'al, both of which I was looking forward to getting (especially Ba'al).
Oh yeah, I would have loved to have that Ba'al! And George Hammond as well, although I would have preferred him in the blue short sleeved shirt, the way we always saw him throughout the series. This wave also was supposed to have the Black Ops Carter (which people then did by painting a green one black, but of course the hat is wrong) and there was also supposed to be an UAV and a Horus guard. I think I saw a picture of the guard once but now can't find it.
And they never even got around to making Apophis. And of course no Universe figures, though admittedly I'm not sure if I would have been too interested in those, except perhaps to get the Gate.
I saw an Apophis someone had done by simply painting one of the main Jaffa golden. It kinda worked. I also have two of the red Jaffas which you got for free when you sent in enough proof of purchases. They really knew how to sell the line with all those assembly pieces, if you wanted the gate and the MALP and the DHD and the ring transporter, you had to keep buying figures you otherwise probably wouldn't have.
I gave up on Universe after a while, it didn't catch me. But I think in general they started too late with the figures, as SG-1 was coming to its end already. If they had started some years earlier, there might have been more interest.
Also, it was not the fans fault. Fans WANTED to buy those figures, but the sellers chickened out by not ordering them, and claiming there weren't enough pre-orders.
Anyway, enough of that rant. Excellent custom job!
Thanks! I already had started with it when they announced the official one, and then stopped, waiting for it, but when it was clear we wouldn't get it I resumed what I had started and for this reason alone I could bear the disappointment better. I also really could use a Janet Fraiser to complete my team.
WOW.
That is some impressive customizing work and an awesome recreation of a scene from the show! That's pure talent you have there, and in abundance.
Aww thanks! *blushes*
There is some more Arrow stuff if you are interested. Here is the conclusion to the scene, from the season 1 finale "Sacrifices", when Malcolm wakes Oliver up with a bucket of water:
And a behind-the-scenes shot: John Barrowman tells on conventions often the story how he tweaked Stephen Amell's nipples
I'm sure it can be found on youtube:
And a real behind-the-scenes shot: I chained him to my kitchen shelf:
You've got to admit that he looks a bit like John Barrowman though.
Also inspired by the intro screen of Wario Land 4.
