    Just one more thing... custom Columbo figure

    Hi,

    What does everyone think of my custom Columbo figure?

    Columbo is on a Type S body with clothes and cigar from CTVT. I purchased the coat from eBay, as well as the head which I painted myself.

    I hope everyone likes him.

    Very nicely done! I'm tempted to dust off my meager skills and try this myself.

    Take note, Mego Corp! There's got to be a market for this one.

        Nice job. I like when people make customs of their favorite characters. It shows the creativity that our group has.

          Columbo was a favorite show of mine although I enjoyed the original 70’s episodes much better than the later ones.

          I really like this custom, I agree with the above statement of people making customs of their favorite characters,
          I would love to see mego come out with a Columbo figure, if they can get the license rights from the Falk estates.

              Columbo is awesome, and so is your figure! What coat did you use? That doesn't look like the normal CTVT trenchcoat...

                  Now I have this mental image of Columbo/Fabio mashup and it's awesome.

                    Thank you for all the positive feedback. I purchased the coat on eBay. It was listed as a trench coat for a 6" scale figure, but I thought I would take my chances and it worked perfectly. Then, I purchased a leather trench coat in the same scale for another figure I am working on, but, unfortunately, it is way to small for my Mego custom and I am back to square one on that one.
