Courtroom Venkman and Spengler with Removeable Packs!

Hey gang-

As some of you know, I’m the “Real Ghostbusters Guy.” That having been said, as much as I love my RGBs I have to show some love for their movie counterparts. I have several custom projects on my workbench at the moment (most of which are RGB related) but I do finish some of them from time to time. Here are the two latest I’ve completed between waiting for molds to cure and cracking open torsos. Enjoy!

My wife pointed out that Venkamn could double as the first ever *Scrooged * Custom Figure.

One of my favorite movies, and a staple around my house during the holidays…

I didn’t forget to do a Group shot, because technically they aren’t a group yet. I am awaiting my Courtroom Ray to modify, and yes I do plan on making a Courtroom Winston even though he was only in the background, the world needs to show more love for Winston. He will go nicely with the CR Louis I’m planning.

As mentioned in another thread the jackets for both of these figures were taken from the Movie Masters Joker’s Thug figure. They are dark blue, and paint really well, also one nit-picky detail I like about them is that the jackets feature the correct details for jackets that are open. They feature buttons on the wearers right and button hole details on the left. Some of the MM jackets feature closed jacket details, (Like Alfred Pennyworth and Harvey Dent) but they don’t glue them in place so they always look off to me. Another fine Mattel product, lol.

Mark these customs are great, the removabile Proton Packs really add to the figures display options.

If you don’t mind my asking what action figure did you use as a base for Egon? I am asking becuase I would like to make a Courtroom Egon custom myself since Mattel is canceling the line, and my collection would feel incomplete without it.

nice!

These look great! Looking forward to seeing Ray after you mod him.

That rocks!

Really nice work, something I wish Mattel would have done in the first place but we all knew that wasn’t gonna happen, lol.

I was wondering (and it may just be the lighting) but if Egon’s shirt/vest couldn’t use more contrast between the two, to really set them apart? You did an awesome job on his sweater vest, but I was thinking if his shirt was more of a pure white with the vest a medium grey that that would look really nice!

Anyway, great work- can’t wait to see your modded Ray!

yeah these are great!

Thanks PVJ! I don’t mind you asking at all. The base for Egon was just the Courtroom Peter Venkman with a leftover Egon head from the GB2 Boxset. I sculpted the sweatervest. (yes, it a complete vest because I’m just that kind of crazy.)

Thanks Mereel! I agree with you 100%, admittedly Egon was a fun “in-between” projects project. I made him up in about six hours while waiting for paint and molds to dry. I killed time letting the sweater cure by teaching myself how to use SketchUp 8 designing the RGB packs for my RGB Figure project. The only reference I could find readily available was my CR Egon Minimate and the colors came from him. I think it helps break up the guys in suits with white shirts and red ties motif that the Movie Masters figures have going on.

I have also completed my Courtroom Winston and will post pictures sometime this week, I will be out of town this week for work so I will have plenty of time to post pics. Until the next post I remain, Mark-Myers’ Farms Online!
