Info on Small Soldiers Anyone??

[drusselmeyer]

Does anyone have info on the production figures from Small Soldiers?

I'm looking for info on all the figures including the Gwendy dolls.

Thanks

FAO Schwartz sold copies of Chip and Archer from the original molds and produced/built/painted by Stan Winston Studio. The set cost quite a bit and only a few were ever released, but you can't get any better than that if you can find them.

Thanks seknewb, any pics or links??

The best pics I have are from 1998 when I visted the Universal display. If I thought about it then, I would have gotten more references. But who knew it would not be a popular film until DVD??

Bumpity ! An old thread revived !

They are showing the movie atm on tv, and I am always surprised how well the movie was made.

So, any infos on the FAO Schwartz figs or who here might have a few original props from the movie ?

EDIT : If a MOD sees this thread, can you please move it to the Prop section ? we don´t have an "artificial actor" section yet, so that would be the closest, just like good ol´ *shudder* "Chucky"

"The Winston Effect" has info on them as well.

IIRC, you used to be able to buy them directly from SW Studios. Directly from the molds, hand painted and REALLY expensive!

If only you had asked this 4 years ago. I worked on this movie as a PA and eventually right beside the great Joe Dante. I got to meet Phil Hartman and Christian Dunst was as cute as a button (what happened?). Anyway, I was given a complete set of these figures by one of the producers as a thank you gift. They were all in box along with the Gorgonites and a Gwendy doll signed by Dunst I gave them away 4 years ago to a die hard collector in Japan who loves the movie more than anything - and I really had no use for them. I might have some pics around here but I'm going to need some major time to find them. I think Terry Rossio may also have a prop or two but I'll need to ask him to see if he still does.

JB, that would be great ! And worth a wait, no problem with that. I can trade you a bunch of Ultraman prop pics that I took last year at the huge exhibit in Roppongi Hills Tower in Tokyo and at the "Venus Fort" on Odaiba/Tokyo :love

Aw, heck, I´ll post them anyway in a separate thread in the next few days.:cool

DEAL! And now you got me daydreaming about the pics you took

 

[HappyHaunt]

Small Soldiers rules!

Necro!

It would be nice to see those sculpts. Due to a clown who scred up a recent deal and left me high and dry, I can't afford anything right now, but I would like to see them for when things turn around.

 

[saintmdn]

Do you have any pictures of the head's? Would be great to see them

As seen on eBay recently...
