Getting Naughty

 It was only a matter of time before I had to play around with a "naughty" photoshoot. Heh! 
Now that I have, I'm kinda over it. It's a bit too creepy for my tastes! :)

Second TBLeague Seamless Figure

 I snagged another TBLeague figure. ( First one was MONTH that you can see here ) I'm really digging the figures and think they did a great job on them both. Formerly Phicen, TBLEague is their new entity and it seems like the quality is top notch. 

I do wonder how they will hold up after time. I've seen some issues being posted with tears in the skin, but I also see that TBLeague clearly warns against bending the arms and legs too much and I'm betting the damaged area photos I've seen might have been caused by users some of the time. 

I got the TBLeague S22A pale, medium bust figure and...yes....it's anatomically correct. I won't be making use of that particular feature :::grin::: but...yep...there are parts. I really dig not seeing the seams and I'm playing with clothing combos that show off those sections. I figure there is no need to have a seamless body if clothing covers them all up anyway. 

The body has metal pegs which is lovely and is actually rather heavy overall. Sturdy, too. She can stand by herself and when I pop the hands and feet on and off, I have little to no fear about snapping a joint in the process. 

The figure doesn't come with a head, so I went with the SUPER DUCK SDH015 Female Head Sculpt H#pale Menga Style which is great! It's the "Menga" (I think they mean Manga) style, so it has a look that is a bit otherworldly, but I really dig the eyes and overall paint up on the head and it matches the body coloring well.

 

Lastly, you can get some great poses out of the figure. SUPER FLEXIBLE is what the figure is marketed as and....yup! The figure is very flexible! 

All in all....LOVING the figure. I'll probably end up getting one more of them in the future. 

Next step - better clothing. She kinda looks like NINJA HOOKER right now. :) These are supposed to be shorts, but....yeah...more like a leather swimsuit bottom. :::grin::::  

Month Deity of War (Silver) 1/6 Scale Figure BY TBLEAGUE

 
I have not made a purchase in a LONG while, but my recent freelance work had me needing a little treat. So, I took a small amount of money and invested in a figure for myself. Now I had a lot of figures in mind, so I needed to narrow it down. 

I'm a MARVEL fan, so I gave thought to adding something from the MCU. I've wanted additional people of color in my collection...being a person of color myself...and I only have my FALCON figure and a kitbashed Nick Fury I'm working on at the moment. Black Panther would have been great, but it's now taken a large jump in price after Chadwicks passing. :( War Machine is great, but about the price point I set for myself. Captain America was also on the maybe list. Seeing as I already have a good amount of Marvel, I leaned toward something a little less costly. 

I'm a horror fan. What about Horror figures? 

Again, there were a few on the list. 

KIER: First Sword of Death was a cool find from Sideshow's Court of the Dead

The BBK Halloween Killer figure was interesting and a great price. I gave thought to getting it and deep detailing it with a repaint of a few of the items. At $100, it might be worth the risk. :)

However, once I saw the MONTH DEITY OF WAR figure from TBLEAGUE, I knew I had a winner. Horror-like...person of color....and SUPER COOL! I'm really loving the figure!

I had an old display from back in the day that I purchased that works really well with the figure. TBLEAGUE was formerly PHICEN, so this is the seamless body with great metal joints. I hope the skin holds up over time. 

I took the figure outside and took some shots as well. 

Dramatic lighting....

There are a nice amount of parts as well. 

All in all, I'm super happy with this purchase. And, as before BIG BAD TOYSTORE was a dream to work with. I'm going to add an explorer on his knees before her for the final effect! :)
