Here’s a possible Kolchak Figure Piecing Project for those with money to burn…..unlike me.
Perhaps the following has already been mentioned before in earlier pages of this thread….anywho…
A company called NECA puts out all sorts of figures covering movies etc….
It turns out a Kolchak head sculpt is numero uno in acquiring parts before attempting to go further.
NECA has 3 figures which use the Darren McGavin head sculpt….they come from the movie “A Christmas Story”
McGavin’s character is referred to as the “Old Man”
The 3 figs pictured below, come in …7” (1/10 Scale) ….. 8” (1/9 Scale) ……12” (1/6 Scale)
The 8” (1/9 Scale) is top left two pics….this figure has two sculpted interchangeable heads and removable cloth clothing and removable shoes (I believe).
The 12” (1/6 Scale) top right pic has a removable head (I believe) but the clothing is molded solid plastic and unremovable.
The same with the 7” (1/10 Scale) clothing is molded solid plastic and unremovable.
Although the 8” has the attributes of two head sculpts …… getting 1/9 Scale pieces would be difficult unless you craft your own.
Now with the 12” …..if the head can be popped off (which most articulated figures can) then there is a sizable market of 1/6 scale piece parts including articulating bodies…clothes and accessories…..for instance….a straw hat to use can be purchased from dollhouse 1/6 pieces….there are other manufactured 1/6 scale stuff out there…..sneakers etc….even clothing….clothing that can be dyed to colors needed.
Once again crafting skills would help…..it won’t be cheap $$$ when it’s done…..but you’ll like what you’ve done.
It will be a one of a kind!
Good Luck
Peace
