TENIME_art Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 (edited) Okay, so I spent the last half hour looking for this anywhere on the boards, to make sure I wasn't posting "old news", but I didn't see any mention of it, let alone pics... Did anyone strip Blob? Or take his head off? Did anyone know his head isn't really his head, but a mask? I popped the head off and saw a seam. I figured it was just from the mold. Except when I took the belly off, and found a military tampo on the torso underneath, I thought maybe the fat face was removable. Yep. (Obviously remove the fat crotch, too.) Sorry if everyone already knew this. I got two Blobs when he first came out. One went on the display shelf, with no playing. The other went into my "etc" bin. I took the "etc" one out to start to piece together a custom, and just now started to fiddle with the figure.

TENIME_art Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 Darken his hair, remove the tat... Great, now I gotta go make an Alex for him to shoot in the head ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Wow... i thought everyone knew that... you must have been AWOL from this place when it originally came out and missed it. I can only imagine how excited you must have been to discover it yourself though!! I opened up a Stormtrooper figure when i was a kid expecting to find a man inside... but alas, just hollow... not even a Ewok! If i remmber right, both versions were displayed side by side when they debuted at whatever Con it was, plus he's been on the Minimate Database for a long time.

Webhead Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 holy shit! I never knew that. Now I gotta go get Blob. I don't have any of the movie wave (just didn't interest me) but that tampo is cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never saw that pic, and I usually only visit this site at work - where the Database is blocked. I was here when they came out, no one ever posted about it...

NorthRaider Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I think everybody posted about two-mode Blob in the earlier Wave 26 thread, the one where TBT first unveiled their images. Comic-accurate or not, movie Blob is indeed a fun figure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rx78jj Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Heck, its news to me, but I was never too interested in the movie wave to begin with. Kool news though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilbofett Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Just finished a custom of comic Blob using the 'fat suit'. Turned out nice. I'm in the process of photographing my customs, sometime in the near future I'll start showin' them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I can't wait to see your custom. I've been thinking of using it since I've got two (yes, I bought two Blobs because I knew there were two different figures in there) but wasn't sure how it would work out.

Cappy Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Actually, I sort of forgot about this, haven't tried it since the set was released. Thanks for the reminder, TENIME, and your picture does him great justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Blimey! I never knew about this at all. What a great surprise - and not mentioned anywhere on the packaging! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
