Neca POTA Taylor, new tailor...

[Gorn Captain]

I really liked the Heston sculpt, but hated the PJs Neca put him in.

I started from scratch, with a stiffer fabric. Gave him zippered pockets (Chest, trousers, sleeves). I copied his original logos, but resized them a bit to match the movie version. He has a collar that can be closed with a mini buckle, but Chuck prefers it open.

The photos were a bit rushed, hope you can still make everything out...

Big improvment! Nice job.

Pretty cool... Much better choice for the fabric, who knows what NECA was thinking with their choice...

He looks fantastic. Excellent upgrade!

Nice work!

The China factory botched the fabric on the NECA Taylor; it was openly discussed when the figure was released.

[Gorn Captain]

They botched more than the fabric. It looks like they took a rough preliminary sketch and copied that. You could hardly speak of a jacket, they ignored the design of the jacket, the pockets, just about everything.Which is a shame, because the sculpt is so great.

Much better - great job.

Very nicely done, I really like the outfit fabric, great job.

I wouldn't say the original outfit was terrible (companies have done way worse at 1:9 scale), but this is a tremendous improvement. He looks great.
