This ain’t just for kiddies anymore!
Our favorite Governor has got his own Ultimate Quarter Scale figure! (with zippers and everything!).

How soon do you think it’ll be till we start to see this in congress?!


 
 
 
 

September 17, 2009 : UQS Luke Skywalker: The Kick Butt JEDI KNIGHT

UQS Jedi Luke

Best part? The Dorman Painting on the side of the box.

Luke’s expression? “Don’t piss me off!”

Look for it in stores!


 
 
 
 

September 1, 2009 : The Force Is Stronger With This One

vadersmall1Once he put his pod racing behind him, Anakin Skywalker got himself some fancy new threads and a swanky Imperial job.  Here he is as he looked in A New Hope, just after vaporizing Obi-Wan.  Sure, he was a friend and mentor, but you can’t expect a Sith Lord to ever forgive being called Little Annie.


 
 
 
 

July 23, 2009 : Intolerable!

Here is the first look at Sean Connery’s head from the upcoming Henry Jones Sr. Ultimate Quarter Scale figure.  It’s about to go off to Lucas for review/approval, but I love the way it turned out so much that I had to get it photographed here first.

December 19, 2008 : Ahnold sez: I’m BACK!

Yeah, if the title of this post is suitable for all ages it means DSTChuck edited me. That’s The Man keepin’ me down. Anyway, look what we’ve got in the works kiddies! Governor Arnold on his way to a ribbon-cutting ceremony at a new LA shopping mall. Heh, just kidding. Yup, we’re going after the T2 license and we’re using this as our calling card. Don’t worry if a few details seem off, he’s a work-in-progress. This guy came together in record time, thanks to the dedicated work of my freelance crew, so we could debut him at the Dallas Toy Fair in early October. Stay tuned for more updates!


 
 
 
 

December 7, 2008 : A face only Natalie Portman could love

Yup, here it is, the final approved head for the Anakin Skywalker UQS figure. I still think this is one of the best outfits we’ve done in the line, so I can’t wait to get a chance to show you this head on the approved outfit (but you’ll just have to wait for it - haha).


 
 
 
 

December 6, 2008 : The man before the mask

I give to you - the approved UQS head sculpt for Episode 3’s Anakin Skywalker. Not much to say beyond that. Stay tuned for paint.


 
 
 
 

November 21, 2008 : Fits like a glove - eventually

The Episode 3 Anakin Skywalker glove was recently revised and, in doing so, I had to cast another copy in hard wax after my first attempt to rework the original sculpt failed. (more…)
