Yep, it is yet another wave of Mego "Game of Thrones".
The theme for Wave 6 is: sidekicks!
Samwell Tarly
Sam is a modified Hurley from "Lost" figure, with sculpted-on bangs and shortened hair. Unfortunately, I couldn't trim Hurley's long hair without cutting all the way down to the hollow interior of the head, so I had to totally re-sculpt the back and sides of his head. Sam comes with his trusty dragonglass knife... which really should be obsidian black, but since his costume is all black, I decided to bring in a little color with the knife.
Jorah Mormont
Jorah uses a Flash Gordon head. I struggled with how to reproduce Jorah's hair color (which hovers indescribably between reddish, blonde, and brown), so a big thanks to Dwayne for giving me some painting tips on how to pull it off. I kind of dig all of the little straps, studs, and tassles on this guy. Fans of the show may remember that he sometimes wears this goofy teal scarf thing instead of the chest strap, so in the group shot below you can see him wearing that.
Ser Barristan Selmy
Shatner as the head of Ser Barristan pleases me to no end (after my modifications, it may be the most natural looking hairstyle Shatner has had in a long time!). On TV, Barristan doesn't carry a staff, but it was a big part of the character in the books, so I had to give him one to "tap, tap" around with.
Group Shots
Here is shot of the men of the Night's Watch, Jon Snow and Sam (and Ghost)... BFFs forever!
And across the Narrow Sea, here is a shot of Dany with her top advisors...
18 down! Many more to go...
Thanks for looking. As always, you can see all the Game of Thrones customs completed so far on my Photobucket.
