ZICA Male Body v.2

[ironman1188]

Like I told you when I met you and I've said it on the forums, you ever decide you want to more than double your money and go 1:6, I'll be first in line!!
Always a pleasure to see what you have come up with.
You've revolutionized the Mego scale.

It's doubtful that will happen for just the hand sets that come with the bodies, simply because it would be cost prohibitive. About the only way different colors would be available is if I did a run of bodies in another color, which is possible.

Cool! Looking forward to that option!

[jquest]

Were you using brush paint or spray paint?

Tried both, but eventually, in time, I found that eventually the paint rubs off! Would prefer to have colored hands for customs.

Have you tried dying them?

Not only that, but supplying 1/6 or 1/9 head sculpt options (like Headplay does) that fits Hot Toys, ACI, or Kaustic Plastic bodies might be a real barn-burner, too. Do you know how many people would love to get an affordable realistic Schwarzenegger sculpt? Extra heads people could purchase for your bodies would be pretty popular, too. People really want options nowadays. Looking at the new body you've developed, you're wanting to give it to them, too.

That`s some amazing work you`ve done with a 1/9 scale body .

If it wasn't for the fact that the 1/6 scale market is insanely competitive I might give that a shot. However, for now I think the best thing to do is focus most of my energy on the 1/9 scale market.

Yes, dying them would be the way to go.

People in 1:6 want options for sure. They also want affordability. I would think Mego size guys would too.
Yes, prices are getting out of hand, but Kaustic just dealt a blow to the over inflated prices by releasing a more affordable muscled body compared to the competition. Heads, hands, bodies. Even feet are necessary for a lot of bodies that don't come with them when parted out.
Zica delivered the most detailed 1:9 figures I've ever seen. No offense but 1:9 fans were never known for being as detail oriented as 1:6 folks. Zica raised the bar to a whole new level, but no one I can recall has tackled releasing 1:9 AND 1:6 figures since the original Mego company did. It would be cool to see it happen again.

Maybe when the recession finally goes away. Right now, let's just concentrate on getting these bodies out there on the market.

This body looks fantastic!!!! Can't wait for them to be sold. The original ZICA body has bailed me out of so many jams (with out of proportion heads). I'll put V2 to work too. It makes me want to stop customizing until it's released.

[TMANSTOYS]

Awesome !!!!!!

[Chris]

I'd love to see how the BBP! Cylon would look on this body! I put a Cylon on a Zica v.1 body and it turned out really well. The arms bend and he's super mobile. It's perfect for me to place in a box.

Now this is what a 1/9 body should look like, and with extra hands. Awesome work guys I will buy them for sure once they come out.

I hope the pins holding the feet are more durable then they look. I've had a few problems with the feet staying stuck in some of Castaway's vinyl hero boots. Not to gripe about the quality of either product, I just hope that these shorter pins will hold up.

The ankle pin design has been changed since that picture was posted and durability shouldn't be a problem.
