Mego did a really good job when it came to creating the toys for Disney's The Black Hole. There are only some many characters shown in the movie and they made most of them (even if some of the toys are extremely rare! ). Watching the movie again recently I realised there were a couple that hadn't been made that could easily made using what we do have. And one of those was a Humanoid disguise for Kate McCrae and Dan Holland. So let's get on with the project.

I love your attitude toward collecting and your desire to have fun with it. Some collectors are so serious that I wonder if they ever enjoy their collections.

@toypolloi 3 месяца назад

Thanks. You gotta have fun, they are toys after all.

@BrynSmith76 3 месяца назад

I love your custom work. I like seeing your rejected ideas too, it really showcases your thought process.

As a child, the ending of this movie stayed in my memory… every time I hear the name of the movie, the ending is the first thing that I think of.

A couple of years ago a British, mego, customizer sold me the four figures you mentioned. Reinhardt in the alt outfit, probe pilot, Kate and Dan in humanoid disguise. He also did great repos humanoid, star and old bob. All carded, love this set. Yours look great!

@brianm6337 3 месяца назад

Fun fact: I got to see The Black Hole before it came out. Father worked at Disney World, and we got tickets to a lot of stuff. This was before everybody got greedy. We saw it in a theater located behind "It's a Small World". Movie gave me nightmares. 😆

@TeflonDave 3 месяца назад

Those look AMAZING! Exactly the way I'd expect it to look in the 80's. Your capes definitely look better than the originals, too. Great job!!

@LaserLivestream 3 месяца назад

YES! This is totally my bag. Great subject and fantastic execution. I think I need some humanoids in my collection to build a diorama before they get liquidated between Medical and Palomino! 😮❤🚀🙏

@jeffwedding7432 3 месяца назад

Your cape solution actually looks much better than the one for the Humanoid figure that was released. Well done.

@toypolloi 3 месяца назад

Thanks. The original capes never looked right to me.

@Diabolik771 3 месяца назад

I recently acquired Maximillian without his stand and got the idea of crafting a stand using the caps off a Display Port cable glued to a clear oval. If you get a packaged DP cable, they usually have these plastic caps over the metal ends to protect them. Max's skinny legs slide right in.

Following the curve of your thumb is a really nice trick. I went to school for apparel design, and one of the tricks I learned was that the natural arc of your wrist is a better french curve than french curves are. Just set your wrist down on one side and let it pivot while you draw your line, and you'll always make a perfectly formed sleeve opening. The golden ratio shows up all over the articulation and lines of the human body. Maybe that'll be useful to you at some point? I dunno. You do a good job of patternmaking for toys.

This is a movie I know has it's issues but I still have a fondness for it. The toys were cool too! I had Vincent, Maximilian, and one of the other humans. But these humanoid costumes are outstanding! I gotta get some of that chrome paint too. Great video! Gives me some ideas...

@alexmac337 3 месяца назад

Absolutely loved my Black Hole toys when I was a kid. I've still got a star figure somewhere.

@manofaction1807 3 месяца назад

Black Hole was a real tough act... It ranks up there with the Star Trek movie, as the figures were all a great mixed bag, and great to put your own names and teams to. Even today though- the movie is unsettling.

@brianartillery 13 дней назад

Great movie - but not really for kids. A classic 'Haunted House In Space' movie, featuring a monomaniac (whose mute robot henchman is now in charge) attempting to become a god. How kid friendly is that?

@GENXPERIENCE 3 месяца назад

What a great custom idea. This is like the Han and Luke in Trooper Disguise. Love this, thank you.

@ManCave1972 2 месяца назад

Awesome stuff- imagine if they’d made these back in the day- we’d have gone mad for them- removable masks and stuff on figures was always such a buzz when we were kids. Lando Skiff Guard was a revelation.

@theoneandonly6431 3 месяца назад

You should market these capes and masks you could make a fortune. I'm about as handy with a needle and thread as a man with no thumbs.

Dr. Hans Reinhardt and Maximillian are Space 1999 villains. Mine pilot the 1978 Mattel Eagle 1 .Perfect ending to the crews of both ships.

@Richard-yw1ez 2 месяца назад

One of my favourite films ever would love to get the figures from the film especially old bob Vincent and Maximilien

@portland-182 3 месяца назад

How about putting some milliput in the back of the resin faces, and custom fitting them? You'd get the smoothness of the resin, and the fit of the milliput...

@vanthdreadstar8039 3 месяца назад

This is what I was thinking as well. I believe strong hold hairspray (sprayed and allowed to dry) should work as a release agent from the cling film.

@freakshowfilmfestival3591 3 месяца назад

I wonder what would have happened if you pushed the miliput into the mold then pushed the faces into it. 🤔 Glad you have these figures, another awesome video.

@AlanVByrnes 2 месяца назад

Amazing as always, have you ever thought of customs for the figures. Of the iconic weapons from the movie ???.

Dave, Those look absolutely perfect! Great job on both!😁👍 Again I love the background music you always play in your vids. Please do not ever get rid of them.🙏 Also I was able to acquire a damaged Old Bob this year!😁 The Humanoid I can only dream about!😂

I really enjoyed this video! The process how you made the masks was great to see. I remember doing something simular 25 years ago when I made custom GIjoes and Transformers. I used Milliput to make a Cobra Commander w/ removable faceplate. It was ok, but not as nice as your work here if I had access to UV resin, I would try for a combination of the two. Milliput pressed into the face and sanded down to fit inside the resin cast to have the best of both materials.

@toypolloi 2 месяца назад

Glad you enjoyed it!

@SeorkMaxx 3 месяца назад

Love your tryouts and rejects, and the fun you are having collecting. Are the masks interchangeable or only fit one fig, that would be my gripe. Plus, the masks are loose…not a real problem, but still. I love a collector that has fun with his collection.

@toypolloi 3 месяца назад

Cheers. The masks will fit there respective figure heads only as the shape of their heads are very different and are held in place by the capes. I'm sure there are other ways to do this, but these work well enough for me.

I would like to see the Airbrush-Dropper thing chromed up. I thought it looked promising.

@toypolloi 3 месяца назад

I felt it looked too much like a welding mask as the bottom edge didn't have the curve needed. But it's not a bad shape.

@black0sheep 3 месяца назад

As I was watching this I thought acrylic nails would be about the right size and shape for the masks. You can still use the Milliput to mold to the faces and it should have the nice smoothness the masks need. Plus they take paint like a champ.

@toypolloi 3 месяца назад

Nails are actually pretty flat and don't have the roundness needed to make the masks. Milliput gives a much better result.

@MikeJenner-Jones 3 месяца назад

Did these figures come with weapons? If so, good luck finding them or even creating them from scratch.

@toypolloi 3 месяца назад

Only the sentry robots and STAR had weapons I believe.

@aaronwolfe7707 3 месяца назад

Did you ever thing about using press on nails those come in different sizes and shapes

@toypolloi 3 месяца назад

I did. They are much flatter that you would think.

@CrabOfDoom 3 месяца назад

Was thinking of that, too. Most dollar stores/pound shops have cheap sets for nail art, and around Halloween, you might even find sets in seasonal stores and make-up displays that are already chromed. Superglue on the inside surface, a little ring of flat elastic, and you could have a quick, cheap, and passable mask.

@johnphipps3287 3 месяца назад

I have a MASK Ratfang vehicle with the chrome mostly gone from the front bumber and grill, I believe by battery acid. I wonder how this chrome was applied by the manufacturer and what I can do to paint it on again?

Check out my MASK videos as I have covered that in those. Cheers
