Love it of course Brad! Would love to have that stuff! I wasn't happy with how my Demon Team suit was displayed (Mannequin was too small) so I built an armature for it that would be inbetween sized and I'm loving how it came out!
Great minds think alike. I wasn't sure if his face was gold or had flesh color like Dementor.
There is also this figure which I am positive is a custom sclupt using the Hydro Iron Man as a base:
Thank you. What I plan on doing is scanning my Turboman and Dementor cardbacks and seeing about getting replica cardbacks made...I'm sure you'll want one.

Loved the movie and the toys. I'm planning a pretty fun project of sculpting my own versions of these characters g yes Booster included lol) I could really use some assistance in the form of reference material especially measurements and detailed photos all around. Currently I'm working on recreating the commando elite & gorgonites from small soldiers, but I'm already planning on my turbo man sculpt soon. Quick question I hope someone can answer, the small figures with the card back, can anyone tell me if the figures are 5" more or less. Again any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the info I greatly appreciate it. Would you happen to know what exact iron man in particular? That way I can purchase one of those and go from there. The 5" will be a test, if all goes well I plan on sculpting all of them as close to accurate size as they appear in film, including the limited edition version on the parade float scene, I think I read that particular one is 23". Lots of info I've got to delve into.

As far as I resarched this figure,the 5inch Turbo man figure is differrent from Iron man version.
There were 2types,one is just repainted Iron man hydro armour(1994 Toybiz ) and another is original
sculpted one.I asked original sculptor about making of these figures and she said they were made from
only clay and then casted.But it may be fact that they used Iron man toy line as reference.
Also It is only twice I've heard about real 5inch Turbo man.
According to the Japanese owner's site he purchased it from US before 23.Nov.2002.
Next time I heard about this figure was at the thread of this site.
He said he got it with real 5inch Dementor from illustrator for free!
So I resarched all illustrators who concerned the movie.

Thanks for the helpful info, I'll definitely reach out to them. I agree with you about the repaint iron man and a separate sculpt of Turboman, those were my first thought a clay sculpt that an actual toy was sculpted molded and cast so of course I'll be going that route instead of reprinting an existing. I've sketched out some rough images from some blurry reference photos of what appear to be the actual 5" sculpted figure and I've started roughing out soeme forms as far as the torso is concerned. Everything is still early and serves to imbed the images and details in my mind. I'll try and post those here if anyone is interested, I'll may start a new great later down the line if I can successfully execute this project and start on the 14" version in the future.
