Review MC Toys 1/6 scale Snow Space set – DiCaprio as "Dom" Cobb in Inception snow scene

Leonardo DiCaprio fails to win Oscar once again!

Many had hoped that the 39-year-old actor would finally get his first Oscar almost 20 years after he was first nominated. However, Matthew McConaughey was throughout the frontrunner for the best actor Oscar for his turn in Dallas Buyers Club and finally went home with the prized statuette. DiCaprio was nominated for his portrayal of financial crook Jordan Belfort in Martin Scorsese's "The Wolf of Wall Street".

You could say Leo was left out in the cold >_< which brings to mind the snow scene in the 2010 British-American science fiction heist thriller film "INCEPTION" written, co-produced, and directed by Christopher Nolan. The film stars a large ensemble cast that includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Ken Watanabe, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Ellen Page, Tom Hardy, Dileep Rao, Cillian Murphy, Tom Berenger, and Michael Caine. DiCaprio plays Dom Cobb, a professional thief who commits corporate espionage by infiltrating the subconscious of his targets.

This is the MC Toys F-029 1/6 scale Snow Space set for 12-inch figures which I had mentioned briefly in my earlier post - February Haul HERE. This is quite a nice snow outfit set and I really haven't seen that many all white snow sets in a while. Plus this set looked perfect for kitting out 1/6 scale Leonardo DiCaprio for the Inception movie Snow Scene. Scroll down to see the rest of the pictures

MC TOYS F-029 1/6 scale Snow Space set (pictured above) comes with Snow coat, Snow pants, Snow boots, Gaiters, Chest rig, Back Pack, Glove, Beanie, Snow goggles, Base layer (white long sleeve sweater), Arm sleeve.

Here's the 12-inch Leonardo DiCaprio as Dom Cobb figure wearing the base layer (white long sleeve sweater), white gloves, snow pants and boots

The boots (boot-feet type) are well detailed and nicely done

Pre-order ZCWO: 1/6 scale Firearms Collection Set A & Set B - More BANG for your buck

ZC World has released pictures of their ZCWO Accessories: 1/6 scale Firearms Collection Set A & Set B and they look pretty good. It'll be GREAT for kitbashing and upgrading or adding on extra weapons to your existing figures. You can get the Remington M870 shotgun (wood version), M870 shotgun with weapon sight, 357 Magnum, 357 Magnum 38 Special, M10, M92F, Desert Eagle in Set A and M10, Ridge Warrior, Glock 19 with silencer, P99, Magnum 357, Desert Eagle .50 and TT33 with weapon blade in Set B.

These 1/6 scale firearms seem very well made and highly detailed with removable parts. The most unique piece in these two sets has to be the Ridge Warrior as it is a crossbow which means it's not actually a firearm since a firearm is defined as a portable gun, being a barreled weapon that launches one or more projectiles often defined by the action of an explosive.

Review Dollsfigure 1/6 Sexy Female Xmas Full Costume Set on Phicen Seamless female body

continued from previous post...

Here's wishing everyone a MERRY CHRISTMAS and happy holidays :)

Having already reviewed the Phicen Limited Convention Exclusive Seamless Female Body in the previous post, let's see how she looks with clothes on ;p This toy blog post also shows off the alternate hair piece (short hair style) that comes with this figure's release. Every year I try to post an entry related to Christmas on December 25 and this year is no exception.

This is the Dollsfigure CC206 1/6 scale Sexy Female Xmas Full Costume Set put onto the Phicen 1/6 scale Female seamless 12-inch body with pale skin & large bust version 4.0. Dollsfigure CC206 1/6 scale Sexy Female Xmas Full Costume Set for 12-inch figures comes with Santa Hat, Neck Collar, Sexy low cut dress (Santarina costume?), Arm sleeves, Belt, One pair lace stockings, One pair cotton socks, Drop leg holster, Phone, Pistol. 1/6 scale Female Head sculpt and 12-inch Female Body not included. Scroll down to see the pictures :)

Not every 1/6 scale item from the Dollsfigure Xmas set can be put onto this Phicen Female seamless 12-inch body figure because of the rubbery skin texture.

The red arm sleeves and pair of lace stockings could not be fitted because they tend to stick to the rubbery skin and cannot be slipped up the rest of the way. Could also be that the arm sleeves and lace stockings are a little bit too small in size. I was also not able to put on the Santa Hat. Everything else fits fine. NOTE: No shoes / boots are included with this set, hence the bare feet ;p

I really like the holster and pistol because they are both done in the Christmas colors of red and white.

Scroll down to see the close-up views / shots of the Phicen Limited Convention Exclusive Seamless Female 1/6 scale head sculpt with alternate short hair style. Does the head sculpt resemble actress Li Bingbing, last seen in "Resident Evil: Retribution" as Ada Wong?

Check out the red and white pistol which matches her Santarina outfit

The picture below shows the Santa hat and arm sleeves which I couldn't use (including the pair of lace stockings which is not shown). Included is a Cell Phone / mobile phone / handphone which is also painted in red and white.
