Here's some of mine. Most (90%) is in boxes awaiting the day that I can bring them out and showcase them all (like the full size Keaton costume on a mannequin...) Got to build a large display case first... Til then, here's a couple of shots of my stuff...   That's all til I dig out some more. Enjoy ;D |

Excellent displays Les, The Returns and the Forever figs look stunning all lined up together. Are the Jokers pants material or painted? they look real. Thanks for the peeks bro.  Will |

Kevin Says:
Great seeing the other guys collections here! I've had the pleasure of seeing Mart's pictures previously, neat to see what you've got on display Les! Some really beautifully detailed movie rogues- I have never seen some of those before!
I have a few shelves in my living room that I rotate displays of toys on. I will try to put together a Batman display so I can share some pictures aswell. My thinking on this (due to space limitations) was to break it up into seperate displays with just Batman Figures, Villain Figures, and Vehicles. Plus maybe a "miscellaneous category like lunchboxes, clocks, etc. I have been trying to trim my collection down but some stuff I just think is too cool to let go.

Thanks Will. the pants on the Joker all painted vinyl. As are those question marks on the Riddler's tights. I modified the Batman & Robin figures also. Everything up there is re-painted in some way or other.
I'll put up some closeups of some of these here really soon.

Wow!! Some amazing artistry in there Les. (Did we expect anything less!!) It is nice to see another guy's collection and this is a real decent set up. The poster and all on the wall adds a nice backdrop. That Tommy Lee Jones Two Face looks like the guy is shrunk down and standing on your shelf. A great job. Thanks mate!

Here are some details of several of my figures. First up is details of the original head sculpt I did for my Tommy Lee Jones Two-Face. This was one of my first ever head sculpts I did about eight or nine years ago. It's a little rough around the edges, but I am still kinda proud of it:  He's on an old Horizon Invisible Man vinyl model body. That was way back before I got into the figure clothing thing.  I may try to move him over to a more posable figure with a set of clothes. Just not ready to do that just yet...  And here is a detail of my vinyl model Revell Riddler paint. I hand painted him including every single one of those question marks...  :  More to come... |

Wow! I'm not usually one for the movie stuff (except Catwoman. Yum!), but these look great together. The work you've put into them is astounding.

Wow. Thanks. It's hard to look at your own stuff and not see the flaws. I appreciate the comments.

Well, thanks fellas. An Oh, gosh... is in order.
No, Jason, that is not my sculpt at all. I got that Mr. Freeze statue and the rest of that movie's characters from the Warner's store back in 1997 and completely repainted them. The face does look pretty accurate though, for that movie's look at any rate. Bear in mind that I bought all those BEFORE I saw the movie...smart move on that Warners bunch's part.
As for my own version of him, ironically, it's in the works.
I am making posable 12" figures of every villain from the movies, and since Mr. Freeze is my favorite all time Batman villain, sour movie or not, He will get the reworks. I have already acquired the parts to do that, and am getting a nice Arnold head to rework into this one. When I get this far that is.... Then I will sell many of what you see, keeping only my posables.
It will be a WHILE before I get to that figure. I am currently making the Joker, Catwoman and The Penguin. I have in progress a Riddler and that Two-face head is coming off and going to a body with a made up suit. Then I tackle Mr. Freeze. I'm bettin' he doesn't get done until mid 2006 at the soonest though.
More fodder for the future I guess.
Oh, and I am making my own design version of what I think Mr. Freeze [glow=red,2,300]should[/glow] look like in 12" scale. (Just seeing Glorbes' figure of him made me start that project!) That will be a fun one! My own design etc. No outside references other than the basic dome and suit idea. I've had it in the back of my brain for years now... Hope I can do him justice.
