Ask Ken at Palisades

[BlueFrackle]

Ken,

Can you tell us what the Newsman will be coming with exactly ?



*wishes for a suit made out of Chickens*



Thanks

Not sure what you mean about Gonzo, but the tux is purple. Check out a recent Daily Bit for pictures of the painted prototype.

I meant Gonzo's fur. The original had pure dark blue fur with black lines for texture. It looked like the Tux Gonzo prototype had more fur that was more purplish blue, like the figure. Then, looking at the pics at the Palisades site, it looked like he still had the blue fur w/black lines. Is the fur going to be the more purplish blue or the same blue w/black texture lines?

Expect the fur to look very much like the prototype pictures on the website.

And Warrick, the Newsman comes with the backdrop w/customizable stickers, desk, glasses and phone.

Beau is in series 6, but I get what you mean.

Sorry, we've been shown so much at the same time i get mixed up - lol - yeah i meant Janice, not Beau. With Newsman sorted, there won't be a weak figure in Wave 5 !

As for Gonzo, i just hope the factory don't make the mistake of using that shiny gloss paint again.

No worries...the former factory was using a wash when instructed to use drybrushing techniques...the new place has it's S together and will follow the drybrushing rules...(Yeah that Daredevil Gonzo looked like he was shot out of a cannon straight into a puddle.)

Heck, I'll be glad if they don't sneeze on the figures! Just kidding. I know there are rigid safety precautions.

Yeah Palisades are safe, but might cause confusion elsewhere with the WWE Wrestling figures, i remember one playset coming with green slime and a figure that came with fake sweat !

They've got some accessories now (Muppet scaled, btw) like a dirty mop bucket, broken toilet, radioactive waste barrels

"With Realistic Smell!"

I was tempted to get the radioactive waste barrel because I thought it would go nicely with either Gonzo or Crazy Harry....but I was concerned about the smell in my house. I actually sniffed the edges of the blister on the packaging to see if I could smell the Realistic Smell.

Hey Quinn...nice custom work overall. Really like the work you did. I have a special place in my heart for WonderPig...really think it works. They all do...but that one in particular is just drawing me in...

 

[Gonzo]

Thanks, Chief!

I think she might be my favorite too. Just turned out the way I thought she should in my head, ya know? And that doesn't always happen.

Thanks.
