Will any of these figures be for sale?
As both a Beast Wars and now RotB collector these would look nice on my shelf.
If yes, what's the charge?
Ninja edit: With the gorilla, ant, lion and lizard coming out we could even have a Primal, Inferno, Lio Convoy and Megatron/Dinobot paint schemes too.
Oh no. My wallet quivers.
Yes, these will be for sale. I have actually been making these for Jkaris directly. He will decide the exact details at some point. Once I finish the five more figures that I have, I'll send the entire lot over to him to decide what to do with them.
And I was having the same thought as you regarding more Beast Wars customs/homages. With this line, I plan to do several different custom homages, including a little series of Beast Wars characters, original BB/LB homages when possible (The lion and Gorilla are already lending themselves to that theme! And probably a red and black Gorilla along with an orange and black variant), as well as a series of Ray Harryhausen style mediterranean aged/weathered bronze titans duking it out. I have a lot of ideas rattling around in my head for what I plan to do with color schemes for these guys. I also have a couple guys coming up that will have some fun, new sculpting on them to change them up a bit too. I hope you guys like them when you see them!
Your shade and highlight work on the Spiderman Scorpion homage is my personal favourite. Before receiving my first ROTB figures, I thought they were much larger (even with Jon showing us scale comparisons, the pictures made me tend to forget), hard to appreciate the level of small detail here until I pick up the figure.
Thank you for the compliments! Much appreciated!
Ahh, good man! Read where you said you had more to go on but I didn't actually expect BW Scorponok would be one of them. Fantastic, can't wait to see it and the others!
Draznar, not sure how I'd feel about all the dinos getting replaced with a lizard, but it sounds like a sweet plan anyway!
Yep, BW Scorponok was planned as soon as I decided to start doing homage paint schemes. And there will definately be an Optimus Primal from that gorilla as well as a Leo Convoy from the Lion (Might have to do a touch of sculpting to his right shoulder to complete that character). I also had planned doing a little bit of custom sculpting on that Ant to make a Waspinator if only I could find some wing that worked....
Thank you everyone for the compliments. I am very excited to be making these little customs. I can't wait to show you guys more!
