    Fantastic work.

    Thank you.

    Roman

    (Very nice.
    Shows like this are what I think folks like CTTV and The doc should go for. Like Star Trek, years ago, these shows have similar cult like followings.
    Whether that translates into toy sales or not is anyone's guess.

    None the less That's beautiful work)

    Thank you, Roman

    When CTTV first started they were asking what characters folks would like to see and I voted for Xena, but after seeing their female figures I’m a little afraid of what they would do with her. But, it would be great to see Doc get the license. What I would really love is for Sideshow to make them and provide some good head sculpts, but I don’t hold out any hope for that, right now there is a big battle over who owns the rights to the show, so I don’t think anyone could get the license even if they wanted it.

    (Really nice sewing, I love this character.)

    Thank you. I’m a fan, too.

    ^ Ah...the Johnny West horse was a good choice. Very Argo-like!

    (The two figures look very professional. Excellent job.)

    Thank you Mikeoz, it's very nice of you to say.

    (I made an 8" Xena and Argo back in March)

    Yes, I remember that was a great looking Xena and Argo.

    (By the way, that's a good likeness to Argo.)

    Thanks but I can't really take credit for that, it's a Marx Johnny West horse I didn't do anything to it.


    Scout

    (That is really amazing detail in the costume and very accurate. Great work. Thanks for sharing it.)

    Thank you

    I'll second that

    Nice work!

    I want to make 8" Xena and Gabrielle figures but I don't think I can make the boots in leather, on that small a scale leather is really hard to work with. In fact, I've found some nice looking woven seude that might work and will be a lot easier to sew.
    I made an 8" Xena and Argo back in March (the link is here, on the old Customs board:
    The Mego Forum has Moved to: - Xena, Warrior Princess, with Argo) and used "pleather", but it can be very fragile and hard to work with. But with patience, it can be done. Suede might be a good choice.

    By the way, that's a good likeness to Argo.

    I can try to come up with something, but the boots were tough.

    Thanks Dave. The top was a bear to stitch all that detail on.
