Hey Randy, whatever happened to Dragon Man???

[claws181]

I remember this being previewed probably a year ago. It was fully sculpted, but needed paint. After that we haven't seen nor heard anything else about it. Could you give us any info on it? Is it still a go?

I don't have the preview pic of this any longer. If anybody still has it could you post it for all the people that don't know what I'm talking about? Thanks.

Do you know if it was Randy sculpting it? I remember see it. Just can't remember who the sculptor was.

[claws181]

I believe it was Randy

[Fannymac]

Actually, I think it was someone else.....but Randy was tweaking it!
Last I heard, it was done and awaiting paint - but that was MONTHS ago!:confused:

[rychehitman]

it was the S bros. Word on the street is it might have been scrapped!

[BadLuv]

Really? Bummer. Atleast he would have been a different color. Is it just me or is it most of the villians seem to be in the same color tones. Greys and Greens. Well, bullseye and Task Master really stand out next to them.

[Fannymac]

Yeah, that would be a shame......he really stood out as a unique piece!
Oh, well, maybe he (and Puck at this stage of the game!) will be the Black Knight/Hercules/Sunfire/Prof. X of Phase IV, and he'll be the first thing Randy re-re-tweaks!!!!!!:)

I don't wanna wait that long! I really hate it when something happens to a piece and we just don't hear anything about it anymore.

And Rych may just be pulling our leg. I mean come on consider the source:)

Dannnnnnnnnnnggggggg. I really hope they make DM. I would soooooooo much rather have this in my collection than yet another Spidey or DD....:thumbsdow

[SD RUM]

I hope Dragon Man is still a go. He would have been a great character.

It's not just you. If you look at Marvel's villians as a whole, a lot of them have costumes in green hue's. MYSTERIO, DOC DOOM, BARON MORDO, MOLECULE MAN, KANG, TITANIUM MAN, RADIOACTIVE MAN, VULTURE, VANISHER, ect..

Anybody still have the pic of this?

I remember reading somewhere that the common practice in comics was that heroes primarily (not the rule) dressed in blues and reds, and that villains were associated with greens and purples. Thanks.

Thanks for those! That's exactly what I was looking for.

I've never seen Randy post anything even hinting at that conclusion. Unless I hear it from the Man himself, I will treat any hearsay with the consideration it is due.

[fishbonex]

There are a lot of Green costumed heroes and villains from th esilver Age because of the cost of ink back then, simple as that. Green was very cheap, and that was part of the reason Hulk went from Grey to Green.

I thought Hulk went to green b/c they were having a hard time getting the gray to be consistent. Sometimes it'd come out almost brown or almost green. I could be wrong on that. Just thought I heard it in an interview w/ Stan Lee.

hence the mention "word on the street":banghead:

I got it already. Just didn't want some sugar-hyped fanboy to read that and go around complaining that Randy cancelled Dragon Man. I'd be funny, but you know it is true. :buttrock:

Actually This Was Sculpted By The Shiflett Brothers. I Am Hoping To See This One Come Out Soon As This Is Supposed To Be One Large Sized Bust.
