      I bought a real Axe bass a few years ago, I'll have to pick one of these up too.

          These are cool. They would go with both my retro 8 inch and vintage 12 inch. I think I'll have to take the dive on these. Nice! But I'll have to wait until I have more I want to order. I won't pay $8.00 shipping for two tiny plastic guitars. That's too much.

              It is just me or is the scale off on those? Judging from the photos of the gene figure with the basses, the basses look tiny.

                  agreed, especially for something that should have been included with the figure.

                        Cool! I got an official Ace Frehley Pickups guitar for my Ace when they came out around 15 years ago, and have always wanted to get a similar authentic bass for my Gene, so this is good news!

                          Hmmmmm. I got to looking at the axe guitar from my McFarlane Creatures Gene which I had been using as a prop for one of retro Demons and noticed some interesting similarities...

                          Notice the guitar strap on my Creature's axe is identical with the same pattern on it. The FTC axe does have a third control knob on it and the tuners are different.


                          Scale-wise my Creatures axe looks about the same as what they're advertising...


                          I wonder if Farrow would have been involved with this? I'm not sure. I'm going to inquire. But it seem pretty close to merit a comparison.

                            and the CTVT one has real strings, a different sculpt and head shape. I don't think its even a knock off of the McFarlane one you are showing. Too many differences.

                              The McFarlane version also has real strings. And Farrow confirmed it was not his work. Interesting though they would be similar in scale next to the Mego style figure, since one should certainly be bigger than the other. The axe guitar in particular should be more pronounced on the Gene figure given it's design.
