Just noticed these on eBay

Too pricey for me, but aside from Superheroes and Megos, Beatles are one of my other obsessions , so I'm intrigued. Might have to start trying to piece these together over time (assuming I can find someone who can make the heads someday)

Are these by someone on this forum? Like the boxes and instruments, especially.

That starting bid is a deal considering what you get, if you did this on your own getting the heads, boxes, bodies, clothes and the instruments you'd be right up there.

[silveralex]

Yes, I think you're right ,at least for the starting price.
I would think the heads are the biggest expense. If I did it myself, at least I could spread the cost over time

And I'd have to have mutiple costume options
Ed Sullivan show (black)
Collarless jackets
Shea Stadium jackets
Help! Ski outfits

Cool customs! Very nicely done. It will be cool to see what they sell for.

I'm working on two sets right now. A younger version and an Abbey Road version. Since I'm a Beatles fan I have been paying close to details. I'm trying to get a pure white suit that looks like Lennons from Abbey Road. I've came close but most don't look right.
Any-woo I probably will sell the younger version because I liked the Beatles more as they matured and became better song writers but who knows. I'll keep you posted. Maybe I'll post a progress or two. I've been going at this for a year. It's starting to take form and even surprising myself. The hairy bearded Lennon with the funky round glasses was fun.....(and still is.)
My bro thought it was funny to craft a Yoko Ono out of that Venture brother's Mr. Girlfriend and the wicked witch. Honestly it didn't look bad but I told him to keep it away from my Megos. It might side track me and make me not want to do it anymore.

Hey Wrathdemon, would be cool if you do post progress when you get something to show. I , for one, would love to see more.

I promise I will. I have a drumset i have created from some Bratz toy that was in a junk pile. I think with the guitars and the Hufffner bass i will have to make by hand. They don't look right when they are over sized.
