My custom McFarlane figure photo site

The link is in my sig, but I thought I would start a thread for my new additions. This is the latest. I made it in a hurry and it kind of got me out of the anti-customizing rut I had been in for the last few months. Jay was pretty excited about it.





More photos of this figure are here: Jay Bruce MLB debut custom figure pictures from baseball photos on webshots

That's a pretty cool article about the Terrelle Pryor figure you made. Too bad he went to the dark side.

Photos of my other TP figure should be surfacing again in a national men's magazine next month. Hopefully, a check from them will surface as well.

The fastest turn-around I have ever done was 3 weeks. Most take 2-3 months. SOme take much longer........

Do you have to ship these off somewhere, or what do you mean by turn-around?

I do them all myself. Nothing is outsourced to China or elsewhere.

Nice. So do you start from a picture, and then work from that?

To put it very simply, yes.

The box/clamshell is theone that comes with the original McFarlane figure. I design and print a new paper insert and sticker, then put them all together.

Thanks! That was the second figure I ever finished and, looking at it now, it's not very well done. The one I made for Mark is a lot better. I keep meaning to do more hockey, but it never works out. What I really want to do is make a Popovic St. Mike's figure out of this guy:
