I'm still super stoked about the Wrestling fans line. A bit more so than the Crew... But the possibilities are rather large here for not only civilians, but customs. Because let's face it... I've repainted most of my UWF by Figures Toy Company. So far, Karen is the only one spared.
Huh? Deja vu?
So, I have ideas and I'll divide them in new heads/accessories on old bodies vs stuff needing brand new bodies. Today I'm tackling:
New bodies and shit:
Yes, it's time to make a long winded rant with bunch of shit that will make some people uncomfortable due to their sick and dirty minds.
Let's start with the Children:
Warning:
Some of the suggested parts involve swimsuits of various styles that dirty minds may twist it into something disgusting. There are no dark motivations behind these, other than build a somewhat modular system for figures. The reason for this Warning is for this post not to get flagged down like a TMNT list rant that I put the "ADULT" in adult collectible.
Now that the Warning is in place, I'll begin.
The standard Child Torso is a unisex T-shirt and shorts wearing Torso.
- Bare arms can make a "muscle shirt" look/wide tanktop look. Combine it with the painted skater sleeves and we have faux long sleeves for kids.(unisex)
- Bare legs that can double up as tights.(unisex)
- Tights styled crotchpiece. (Unisex)
- Bare lower legs that end up in bare feet(unisex)
- Sandals (unisex)
- Ballet shoes (unisex)
- "Bare" torso (boys) doubles as tight fitting tops for Ballet/school play displays.
- Spaghetti strap one-piece leotard/swimsuit (girls)
- Legs that mimic slacks.
The reasons why I had the warning are the following:
Some pieces will also double as underwear and that can make some folks uncomfortable. But it needs to be done if I want to do sundresses as an overlay and for ballet tutus. I also want to have swimsuits for beach/water park displays.
For examples:
Let's make a new girl character:
Using the Leotard Torso with the "bra" part painted white and the crotchpiece painted white with the abdomen in white would give her an "underoos" type of underwear, or a one piece swimsuit. Over that she could have a light blue sundress and black ballet shoes to create am Alice in Wonderland inspired outfit. Then we pop a pigtailed happy ginger head and we have a new character. Let's call her Maria.
Now let's do a boy:
Taking the old school Shirt body, the Nerd Vest from the previous rant in black, using the new slack legs in light blue and the old body Sneakers in black, all we need is a new head thinking Brunet hair, clean cut short hair and Glasses with a worried expression. We have a new kid, Pedro.
Beach versions:
Using the Unitard torso for the girl with bare arms and legs.
Using the bare torso and the old school shorts with the new barefoot lower legs and we're done. The thing is that you can mix and match to your heart's content
Using this Background Image with "prototypes" of the fans, on the far right, their right, your bottom left, there's a teen in a light blue top, black tights, and a beige jackwt tied to her waist. Seems like a hybrid between Amber and Kaylee. Well, aside the wrapped around jacket, we could make a kid version of her:
New head or Reuse Kaylee's:
Shirt Torso with bare arms in light blue
Tights crotch and bare legs in black, blue socks and white sneakers.
The kids next to her only things he needs are a hoodie torso overlay and a new head. If we get new jacket sleeves, even better.
All I want is a body part database that can be mixed and matched to create new characters.
A part of me wants obese kids as well:
But those would be a bit more complicated... due to requiring 100% new sculpts and they couldn't get much reuse from them.
They would be scaled down versions of the Obese men sculpt and for the girls throwing in a dress overlay.
Speaking of Obese folks:
I find the lack of Melanin overloaded folks with Obesity quite disturbing. Not gonna lie, I'd kill for two Dark skinned Obese folks: One being a policeman, the other having a Reginald Veljohnson inspired head. One headswap later and
While keeping the Obese around, back to the FTC Audience backdrop. Next to proto-Tasha with pink hair, we have an obese dark skinned woman. I want an obese female body. Would require a new upper torso and new upper legs. The new "bare upper legs" are for leggins/tights to accommodate dresses.
Now let's work out other new parts:
- Slacks and closed shoes.
- Button up shirt with tie or no tie options.
- Long sleeve Blazer arms.
- Blazer
- Special buttoned up upper torso (both male and female) with plug to attach a badge (Police, Paramedic, Firefighter, etc.)
Again, the vest overlay could be used here for the guys and the dress for the women. (Think GTA Auntie Poulet)
Head ideas:
- I mentioned the Reg Veljohnson inspired head already
- A white dude with a passing resemblance to James Avery (pillowy mounds of mashed potatoes expression)
- A fat version of Jeffrey Jones with his hairstyle from Beetlejuice, but with black hair.
- Black woman with dreadlocks face is like a combination of Raven Simone and Whoopi Goldberg.
- Black man reminiscent of a fat Vincent D'Onofrio in Full Metal Jacket.
- A cross between Miss Cleo and Rasputia (yes, as in Norbit)
- White woman with Blonde Elvira Hairdo.
- Inbred fully bald White dude with methhead teeth
- Inbred red haired white woman with methhead teeth. Trashy looking Page cut.
- Big Smoke looking brother. No hat.
- Brunette with Eleanor from the Chippettes hairdo.
- Hairstyle similar to Granny from Looney Tunes.
- Shoulder length Perm for a black woman
- Longish crazy hair with methhead teeth. (White man)
- Bowl cut
Now Mandatory Beach bodies:
I mentioned bare upper legs for dresses. Now I'll add bare upper arms, bare feet, and bare male torso. Also I'll add a female v-Neck upper torso that doubles as swimsuit top. No need for new crotchpiece unlike the kids.
We have options:
Males:
- Standard fat body with bare feet.
- Standard male body but using the bare arms to make the T-shirt and tanktop
- Standard Body with the shirtless torso and arms
- Shirtless torso with the bare legs for the Speedo Look (thinking the Jeff Jones looking head would be for the Caucasian version of this body)
For the Females:
- Standard Body with the bare legs. To simulate a shirt over the swimsuit.
- V-neck torso with bare arms and legs for the One-piece Swimsuit.
- V-Neck Upper torso with bare abdomen and bare legs for the bikini option
Now let's hit the Slim ladies...
Poor choice of words there, Nefty...
Shut up, Cade!
As I was saying:
The slim ladies:
I NEED to get rid of the Bra upper torso!!
Here are two already mentioned ideas for torso, but I need to keep insisting In order to make waves. Now the slim females wouldn't require that many parts... 2 alternate upper torso, and bare feet. I'm not sure if the Female Referee is Reusing male parts. (Would need to have one in hand and, I don't.) So, let's save this for the event of a part Gamma.
Now let's discuss the new torsos:
The Uniboob torso is for some One-piece Swimsuits, some turtleneck outfits, and to use with the proposed blazers from the previous rant.
The Barbie Torso is for more risqué outfits with plunging neckline, some sportsbras and bikinis. And it has no visible bra straps for open back dresses. Remember that I'm looking at these beyond Wrestling fans. I'm looking at these as civilians to fill backgrounds. Charity events where certain high profile people could show up. Cringe Warning
BvS reference ahead. Movie gets worse every time I see it. Or just the same dress designs used on the og female fan figures (Amber, Jade, Lisa, and Tasha) but without the pesky bra sculpt.Again, using the overlays I proposed on the previous rant and alternating with these new bodies, more variety could be obtained.
So, the Mandatory Beach variants:
The bra torso workshop for a bikini top with the crotchpiece being the bikini bottom.
The uniboob torso makes a onepiece swimsuit/leotard. Think Cammy/Psylocke.
Also some square neck and asymmetrical bikini
The Barbie Torso can make two kinds of swimsuit. Think UMK3 Kitana/Mileena/Jade. For the first swimsuit. The second type would be bikini tops with plunging neck, and more risqué suits but we aren't doing the latter.
I would also like to introduce the girl Shorts, which would be a new crotch with the upper thighs painted in pants color while the lower thighs are flesh colored. Some girls prefer shorts to the beach even if they're wearing a one piece suit.
I hope you have noticed the trend that i'm going for. Building a catalog of parts for multiple outfit options and pre-investing in future lines.
I should tackle some special heads:
- Brittany from the Chippettes as a brunette with an excited expression (I'd be lying if I'd say that I'm not thinking of a custom Irma in case S7 fails us)
- Jeannette from the Chippettes in blonde with an amused expression. (I'm totally thinking of Japanese Irma from TMNT Gaiden. The one that runs in her underwear with a katana)
- Blonde Caucasian with a braided ponytail. Not like Lara Croft.
- Pixie cut with unnatural colors (both races)
- The Gary Oldman 5th Element hairdo (both races)
- "Elvira hairdo" in red.
- Inbred methhead teeth lady with dual braids.
- Back length Perm (both races)
- Straight hair version of Jade's odango hairdo.
- Ponytail with bangs
Slim Men, time to get it done!
We have plenty of parts already. I want to introduce the beach parts and 2 different sets of bodies:
- Average: slim body not flabby, but not athletic either. No muscular definition
- Athletic: slight muscular definition, but not Wrestler ripped.
These bodies require bare arms, bare legs, new bikini/tights crotch and shorts upper legs.
Heads:
- Short dreadlocks (black man)
- Simon Phoenix styled hairdo (black man) NOT BLOND!!
- Afro (black man)
- Mohawk (with and without glasses, both races)
- Blond white man with a hairdo similar to Jason Narvy in the 90s
- Ginger man with a ponytail
- MacGyver hairdo
- Shoulder length hairdo (Trunks/Team Rocket James)
- Clean cut short hair and Glasses
- Longish hairstyles receding hairline.
- Blond Tom Selleck in Magnum hairstyle.
- Urkel inspired hairdo with and without Glasses.
Let's create some useful bodies for the parts:
Office workers: (adults)
We got the female blazers, the uniboob tops, and the non plaid skirt pulling the heavy lifting for the slim ladies. A big blazer with pantsuit would pull the heavy lifting on the heavyset ladies. For the men, the slacks and the Button shirt with ties do the heavy lifting for both slim and big men. But not all office workers need ties or long sleeved shirts to work.
Personally as long as we get a caucasian big man with a short sleeve button shirt with tie and slacks either light blue shirt and dark blue pants or white shirt and dark blue pants, I'm OK... (yes, I would use the black haired Jeff Jones looking head to make a Burne Thompson custom) and the Slim Caucasian body with a short sleeved shirt (no tie) and slacks. Preferably Sporting a white or red shirt with blue or black pants. I'd use the Jason Narvy styled head to make another custom (Vernon).
I'd also take a heavyset Melanin abundant office lady.
I mentioned that we need soft goods dresses/skirts for the ladies. But here I'll go fora couple of secretaries:
Using the Barbie Torso and painting it as the top of a low cut strapless black dress and using the nonpleated skirt and the Lisa shoes for a caucasian woman. Same in lavender for the lady with excess Melanin. Pop in the braided ponytail head on the Caucasian and the Pixie cut for our sexy ebony secretary.
For the more nerdy secretaries we'll need heads with glasses. One should be the Jeannette from the Chippettes inspired head. For the body let's start with the Uniboob body pleated skirt. One with Lisa shoes, the other with the Referee shoes. Both would also have the nerdy vest
Figure 1: green top short sleeves, purple skirt and light blue vest. Lisa shoes:
Figure 2: Light blue top forearm length sleeves
Yellow vest and skirt white tights Referee shoes.
Now for the third kind of Secretary:
Female Referee torso, crotch and normal legs for a pantsuit with Amber feet. We pair her up with the blazer. For the head the Redhead Elvira inspired head will do for the Saltine American. Now for the Chocolate Secretary, the Perm head.
Other random ideas:
I recently ate brownies... not my brownies... they were... brownies. So my THC tolerance is nearly non existent. So, I was so high... I mean opening lyrics to the only good Nickelback song high.
I started freaking out. My brother was like: "Nigga, calm your cracker ass down! It's just edibles! Oh yeah, you don't do weed. Pussy!"Not doing the exact kids club, but characters that kinda resemble them.
For example:
A slim adult with a backwards hat and Brad-styled glasses. Not blond, cap is not red.
A fat adult black man that resembles Jaws.
A Blond version of I/Q which would be the base for an 87 toon Baxter. This is just a way to transition into the next stage:
People with Disabilities:
Current year and all that. I know FTC has a wheelchair in their accessories section, but we need a child sized wheelchair.
But I'm also looking at people with Prosthetic limbs.
Do I have an Ulterior Motive to ask for these?
Yes! Looking for an overweight Caucasian body with a below the knee Prosthetic right leg. That would facilitate the Pizzaface making process.
But this can also bring me to a few Special Sets:
