View Full Version : The Wild Wild West
Would love to see Moebius do some models for this show.(I know a few others also mentioned it in other threads) This is a great Scifi/Fant. show and as far as I know little has been done in the hobby/toy world with it. There are a fewmodels that could be done with the property. A train with living quarters, lab etc. Figures of West, Gordon, Loveless etc.
Ok.Guess its not popular.

It sure is with ME.......NEVER missed the show and kits of those three characters would be GREAT!
frankenstyrene 03-21-2008, 09:42 PM Me too. I'm one of the ones who suggested it some time ago. Jim, Artie and Loveless - gotta have Loveless!
AFILMDUDE 03-21-2008, 11:17 PM I Would be all over this as well! I already own the Jeff Yagher resin kit.
Loveless is a little small. But a kit featuring both him and Voltaire would make up for it
Seaview 03-21-2008, 11:38 PM Clarification; is the Jeff Yagher resin kit the same one that LM produced? If so, I have 2 of them (blue suit with gold vest and the pale grey suit with green vest), and am very pleased with them.
John P 03-22-2008, 09:24 AM I'd imagine a 1/6 figure kit of Jim West would sell fairly well (heck, I watched an episode on DVD just yesterday). But I doubt the sales power of a separate kit of Arte. Maybe if we drop it down to 1/8 for the sake of cost savings, and make it a 2-figure kit of both of them.
Ravenauthor 03-22-2008, 11:05 AM One of my favorite shows. Been buying the season sets, too. I just meet Richard Kiel last weekend at Omegacon. Was hoping they had a photo of him as Voltaire for him to sign but had to settle for his Twilight Zone character. Would love to see Voltaire and Loveless as a kit.

Make it a mirror kit to Aurora's Man From U.N.C.L.E kits.
John P 03-22-2008, 01:33 PM ^That'll work!
xsavoie 03-22-2008, 01:34 PM Some 1/8th scale kits in styrene is the way to go.Not too big,not too small.A good size for adding a diorama to them.:thumbsup:
iamweasel 03-22-2008, 02:58 PM I would seriously go for The Wild Wild West figure kits. :thumbsup:
Geoff Boaz 03-22-2008, 10:59 PM I would seriously go for The Wild Wild West figure kits. :thumbsup:
Me too, Will Smith with six gun would be the bomb! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
toyroy 03-23-2008, 09:10 AM I'm not a figure modeler, but I think West pointing his trick derringer, or using his boot knife, would make an interesting subject. Or, maybe he could be featured on horseback, perhaps with a nice-looking lady co-rider.
Gordon in costume would still have to look like Gordon- a bit of a challenge, there.
John P 03-23-2008, 09:54 AM Me too, Will Smith with six gun would be the bomb! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
You're dead to me.
;)

Artie with a gun in one hand and pulling off makeup/a mask in the other?

Will Smith as James West? Is that some work of fan fiction or something? Amusing idea, but good thing no one would ever take it seriously enough to actually make, say, a cartoon out of it.

Or movie.
frankenstyrene 03-24-2008, 10:54 AM But then again, Will Smith can play ANYTHING, as he's proved many times.
As long as the character is written to be basically Smith himself with a different name. So why not.
deadmanincfan 03-24-2008, 11:52 AM ...no...sorry to say Will Smith with six-gun WAS a bomb...never should have tried to take a cool little TV show and make it into an overblown movie...
toyroy 03-24-2008, 04:09 PM Artie with a gun in one hand and pulling off makeup/a mask in the other?
That'd work. I was trying to figure a way to use his tiny phonograph...
