Personally, I hope they'll do a 1/1 too.

I'll be watching this closely. If the production piece looks like this, I may have to pick one up.

Hey Guys.

First of all thank you for your messages of support in the other thread, it is much appreciated.

Re. the PR color, it is totally accurate! I know you may not think so (I wasn't sure either) so we researched at great length. It is a color called "brown bess" (no idea why). It looks brown in some light & dark green in others. We eventually obtained some of the actual paint they painted the originals with. It looks more green under the lighting used when filming. Apparently OD green didn't look green with the lighting.
Its a tough call & we may end up producing some in Brown Bess, which is technically correct & some in OD green which is how it is thought of more.

What are your thoughts?

No love for the Rambo statue?

Thanks again for your kind words.

Mark! I'm more then appreciated at this particular time that you took the time to give us the info!

Personally, I'd like to see it in a more green tone. Not only becase that's how it looks in the film and it will also differentiate the new HCG version from the old Icons version(which is a brown tone).

Please check this website, the one they built is one of the best I've seen

The Rambo statue is cool, should looks even better after it's painted.

Thank you Mark.

This is a just awesome !
I doubt the plasma rifle that is coming along with the life size SS endo will be looking as good as HCG's 1/2 scaled one!
Because that is REALLY the best finish I ever saw on a plasma rifle!

Yup, that's because that's how the thing looks like in the movie.

You did the research, I say go for brown bess then.

The 1:2 plasma rifle is just lame!
