    Custom of the Week - 7/21/14 - Crazy Fat Ethel

    This week the spotlight falls on one of the creepiest customs ever posted to the Mego Museum. Crazy Fat Ethel from the movie Criminally Insane comes to us courtesy of Bizarro Amy. I would be nervous that this figure would go all 'Indian in a Cupboard' on the rest of my figures. I am not familiar with the source material, but the screenshots show that Amy has really captured the likeness. Bonus points for boobs on a stooge - I just wanted to type that.

    First of all, don't ask why I needed a custom of this character. It was supposed to be a quickie project, but it turned out to be more complicated than I thought. The movie is available in its entirety on YouTube. You've been warned. http://youtu.be/qnnLvqIM3C8 Here's the movie poster and some reference. (http://smg

          This is an awesome custom, but she's scaring the beejeezus out of me staring at me on the front page of the forums!

                      Congrats! I have a lot of love for these "out-of-left-field" customs, and this one is especially cool because it is such a wild transformation.

                          Thanks guys! Yeah, if I ever had an Indian-in-the-Cupboard type situation, I'd be in pretty bad shape, between Ethel and Talky Tina!

                              Well deserved! That is a very creative custom and she turned out perfect.

                                  Congrats Amy!! - I loved the WIP pics here and FB. You did a great job sculpting it. It really came out fantastic.
                                  I agree with Earth 2 Chris - the fact she freaks me out so much is reflection of how good she came out.

                                  Well done!

                                                  Congrats and well done for going outside the box on this custom! Looks terrific!
                                                  "It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                                                      Definitely outside the box, but I agree with being weirded out having her stare at me on the forums front page!
