    Kingdom of the Spiders

    What does everyone think of my custom Rack Hansen (William Shatner) figure from the movie “Kingdom of the Spiders”? He was made using a type S body with a playmates Kirk head (shrunk and painted by me). His clothes are from CTVT with the shirt dyed pink. The spiders are from my local dollar store.
    I hope you like him.

    Oh, wow... How have I never heard of this movie before?!? Is it as delightfully terrible as I have built it up in my head?

      It’s one of the most fantastic things ever put to celluloid. You need to see this movie. Rack Hansen (Shatner) is a veterinarian whose skills are put to the test when the spiders take over his small southern town.

        Good replication of Shatner's film character.

          Very unique figure. I think that I watched that movie when I was in Junior High. Nice work, the figure looks great.

            Thanks for the feedback, everyone. Unfortunately he didn't make the cut for this week's Mego Museum newsletter although someone else's custom of the same figure did... I was hoping to he would have made it.

              Wow, I just assumed that was your figure as well.

                  Shatner wears a few different outfits in this movie... all very similar, just different coloured shorts, hats, etc. I went with the brown/tan pants, pink short with brown cowboy hat combo whereas the other customizer went with the brown/tan pants, white short, white hat combo. I added some removable spiders to mine as well.
