Anybody make any progress yet? I have my figure done and now I'm working on the accessories. I still have to decide on what to do for the display base.

I've got the package done and all the accessories together and now I'm just waiting for some body parts to arrive, I will be starting the base in the next few hours.

I have a question. Are vehicles allowed as an accessory?

I'm going to take a guess and say if it's part of a diorama and the figure you are making uses said vehicles I can't see an issue but I'm only guessing.

The vehicle I have been working on is kind of big. Hopefully we can get an official ruling here. My Ultimate Action Figure needs an Ultimate Ride. I'm looking forward to seeing what you are working on. I must say I'm a little intimidated.

I look forward to seeing the of vehicle and you are doing to it. I don't think it will be long before you get an offical ruling and are you a little intimidated?

I don't think Spry was thinking huge dioramas, but I wouldn't see why a vehicle wouldn't be ok.

Alright here is Tunnelrat! Hopefully you can see all the different types of gear I used and two sets of hands. He has two different machine guns a knife and his trusty revolver.

The "ultimate" Indiana Jones figure is indeed that!  WOW!  Double-sided WOW!  That may be the closest thing to perfect I've ever seen.  As a huge fan of Indy, this takes the cake for all-time awesomeness! 

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Sorry for the delay everyone. My work schedule has left me with no free time at all this summer. On the vehicle question, I am going to have to say NO. The idea is that you are creating a Sideshow type figure and those never come with a vehicle. It would add too much to your display and could be seen as an unfair advantage. All we eed is a figure and a display base. Have a look at what Ron just did. He has hit the nail on the head for what we are looking for.


Ron, That is one breathtaking entry! Not to mention I want it! Love the Joe articulation added to the legs and the box is just stunning. The 2 sided display base is a stroke of genius! I am blown away.


Nice work on Tunnel Rat Tom! Another great entry! Your display base works well with the figure as well.
