- A close up look at the TOTS 1/6 scale take on Donald Pleasance as Dr Sam Loomis in the iconic slasher movie Halloween. Is it blank, pale and emotionless or has death come to your little town?…you decide.

Beautiful looking headsculpt, but the soft goods look fairly generic 🤷 Depending upon your level of interest in the figure, a few key improvements in the suit and some minor tailoring tweaks could definitely bring this piece up to snuff 🎉 Personally, I enjoy adding little touches here and there to customize figures to my liking, but I agree that it shouldn't be necessary, especially when you are purchasing a finished product at retail. Great unboxing and figure review video 👍
Thanks as always for your comments and support it’s much appreciated 👍 Like you I’m partial to a bit of customisation myself and with some work there is potential here for an outstanding piece but straight out of the box at this price point retailoring a figure shouldn’t really be necessary. I waited what seems like forever for a 1/6th scale take on Dr Loomis so I will persevere with the clothing changes and maybe post a video of the mods. Take care of yourself and happy collecting👍
Thank you Go figure for another great honest review. You really do give us all a great in-depth insight into all the characters you select on this channel. I see what you mean about this head sculpt, it really is very good. Such a shame about his attire. How hard can it be to get that iconic mac so wrong!
Even so, he looks great in the show case with Michael. Thanks again and congratulations on 700 subs.
Absolutely 💯 great head sculpt let down by some poor tailoring…I’m with you, we’ve seen hundreds of figures with overcoats so it’s not rocket science 🙄 Thanks as always for supporting the channel, take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏼
I used to have the 1978 Myers and I think that only came with an extra hand and knife. The likeness on this figure is great. The overcoat does look a bit bright but maybe it's because Loomis is mostly seen in the dark. I'll have to refer to a daylight movie shot to compare. Tailoring does look more like a Mego
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated👍🏼 Absolutely 💯 the head sculpt and likeness are very good, the suit and be futzed to make it look more natural, but it’s a really odd choice of material and colour for the overcoat 🤔Take care of yourself and happy collecting👍🏼
This looks like it'd benefit greatly with some water treatment to make it all sit a bit better. A tiny amount of brown or gray dye in some water might make the raincoat serviceable too. But yeah, good set for the pricepoint, won't need to spend much money or time to get it all up to scratch I think.
Absolutely 💯 there is a great figure in there trying to get out with the clothing issues fixed. I think I will probably avoid trying to dye the overcoat as the material is super thin and just go for a custom coat. Thanks for the comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏼 take care of yourself and happy collecting.
I agree, there is a hell of a good figure here if you are inclined to undertake a degree of customising. The solid building block of course is that top notch headsculpt , that ‘s Donald Pleasence all day long. Would be interested to see the result of any upgrades you care to make, Other than the shirt collar which you can fuss with as mentioned any problems with the suit would be mitigated by a weathered , colour stained rain coat?. A really good figure to have in the collection, I wonder, perhaps if you know has anyone ever done a Laurie Strode figure?. Anyway, thanks for your thoughts on the piece and appreciate your candour, some amazing stuff coming up on the channel which I am looking forward to . Enjoy the rest of your weekend and as always mind how you go
Absolutely 💯 it’s a great starting place, the suit and collar I can mod to work better but I’m not sure how the material in the overcoat would take to being dyed…it’s super thin and I suspect the lining would not respond well either, might just be easier to get a custom overcoat. As far as I know outside custom jobs Laurie Strode has never made it out of 1/12 scale officially…a real shame, maybe a 3rd party could pick her up🤞🏻Thanks as always for supporting the channel, take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏼
Looks pretty decent. Thanks for the review. Decided to bite the bullet and buy him. Nobody else is gonna make a Loomis figure so fair shout to Trick or Treat. I wish they'd do Laura but thats wishful thinking.
Absolutely 💯 the chances of anyone else tackling this guy are slim outside of highly priced custom jobs. With a bit of work this could be an outstanding figure and I’d waited too long for this guy in 1/6th scale to pass on TOTS version. Thanks for the comments and supporting the channel, take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍
Didn't realise Id pre ordered a Harry Hill figure! Size of that collar jeez 😬 Head sculpt is quality though.
😂😅 thanks for that, I needed a proper belly laugh after seeing that overcoat👍🏼
Great review,thanks! The shoulders can be lifted up a little bit to achieve better proportions?
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel its much appreciated 👍🏼 Futzing with the body has improved the fall of the suit somewhat, thanks for that👍🏼as has taking the suit off and doing some gentle scrunching to loose some of the rigidity and make it fall better. That overcoat though I think is a lost cause😂 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
He looks great mine arrived other day not to sure If its just mine but on mine his face seems bit dark
Thanks for the comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍 I think it’s down to how it’s lit, in some light the head sculpt can come across as quite tanned. Take care of your self and happy collecting👍
@@goFigure623 thank you I throght it was just mine when it's in display with light coming down it definitely helps it look lighter tone 😀
I don’t understand why they got the color of the coat so wrong. That’s like the easiest thing to get right lol it’s a shame bc I was planning on getting it but I don’t want to have to buy another coat considering the figure is already overpriced
Absolutely 💯 to get the headsculpt spot on then drop the ball on the tailoring is disappointing, to be honest it went straight in front camera as soon as it arrived and I hadn’t seen it in hand prior to recording the review and I could not hide my disappointment. It just proves that getting a 1/6th scale suit and coat right is still one of the hardest things to do convincingly. It’s a shame because I had high hopes for this😢 as always thanks for your comments and supporting the channel, take care of yourself and happy collecting👍
@@goFigure623 *The agent Mulder and Scully figures by ThreeZero have excellent suits and equally great trench coasts.*
I think TOTs is ripping people off at $200 a figure. They have made zero improvements in quality and craftsmanship since the 78 Myers. The softgoods are generic, and "accessories" are a complete joke, and almost criminal. The sculpts are the only shining part of all of these releases. Even still, I ended up buying one, but got it for well below retail, which I will never pay for a TOTs again. I am excited to get him because the sculpt is that good. I will dye the coat, and / or paint it. Replace the shirt, and give it an overall futzing, and I think it will ultimately be an amazing piece.
To add, the clamshell package and box are a joke too. Even unlicensed figures that are crap quality give us foam packaging and good quality shoebox style, or a flap style front
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated👍 Absolutely 💯 it’s difficult to justify the premium retail price tag on this one, the star of the show is definitely the stunning head sculpt but everything else feels like an afterthought. Glad to hear you didn’t pay full price for it, take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍
