    To Hell with the Scarecrows.......

    As usual a very obscure reference for the true Apeheads to get....IT"S RENEGADE APE WEEK>>>>>>>>
    Taylor right before ALL hope is lost....

    By the way, I work DAMN HARD on these customs and get like 8 responses per figure (laugh it up C) and think that my body of work speaKS FOR itself....Had to go ebay to get the worlds opinion (60.00 to 80.00 per figure) to make a statement........Didn't want to sell em but ain't like I cant make a better one each time.....I just think I'ts sad that people ***** about paying 20.00 a figure at TRU but cant appreciate what the NOVICE Customizer makes that they cant buy for 20.00. I guess that I'm just frustrated that the people I even give s**t too cant make a nice comment. Anyhooooooo here's a Taylor figure right when he hears the waterfall.....................................

        how did you shrink it? when I got it, it was already in the correct scale for Megos. i haven't seen a better headsculpt than this for chuck. do you know if one exists?

              I don't trade I give...If you want to give back thats your thing.....I believe true friendship isn't based on trade but giving...however if a realationship is one'sided it is ended. i would love however a TERROR head once you view it

                  Ok, just so this isn't a conversation but a forum. i think you did an amazing job on this as well. i always love seeing how fans extend a series of figures such as Trek and POTA.

                      The figure looks really good. The outfit is outstanding. I love that headsculpt. I'm using it for my 12" Taylor. I like the repurposing of the backpack too.

                      I luvz me some POTA!

                      If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                        Nicely done, once again. But... please tell me you aren't doing the naked Chuck diving into the water version.

                          IM I'll leave that stuff to Sandy...I only do what Mego didn't. If Sandy wanted to be funny he could package his Galen on a Cornelius card....now thats Mego

                              He looks good and all, but I'm confused: If you already knew how to shrink a head which you did with this Taylor cast, then why ask how it's done after you've already successfully did it?
