Much as I love the official stuff, there’s no denying that some of the best Serenity merchandise comes from the fans (one reason why QMx keeps hiring them). A perfect example is this custom sculpted 12″ Mal figure.
It started life with a Sideshow body — I’m guessing not a Buffy one — and includes “a real suede Brown coat, leather boots, belt, and holster, and Mal’s unique sidearm.” And frankly it looks better than any of the official Mals yet, although I do have an affectionate preference for my Firefly Barbie Mal.
I don’t know anything at all about this seller, so bid with the usual eBay caution. But damn.
If i were into dolls, I would SO get that
Whoever made this should get a job in the industry. I totally agree it’s better than any of the others so far. Soo tempted.
it was made with love.. somebody who’s looonin’ for FF to return 🙂
I just checked out the pictures from his ended auctions (on his feedback page). He is really talented at sculpting! I think this one is his best work and not just because I’m biased towards the subject matter.
Dang, that’s shiny! I’d love to see Dark Horse make larger action figures using the technology they applied in creating the PVC mini figures. Until then, this is the best Mal I’ve seen.
