Gmonkey2k Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Those came out great! Nice to see people can still get great shots with staction figures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted June 25, 2017 Author Share Posted June 25, 2017 As long as the pose is a good one, you can always get good shots. The ball-jointed heads on these can actually give you a few choices. Many of McFarlane's old figures were only meant to be seen from one angle, as far as I could tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted July 2, 2017 Author Share Posted July 2, 2017 Thanks! It's a pile of ballfield dirt at a local little league baseball field. I need to go back there with the Minimates, and maybe the Lost in Space B9 Vinimate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessex Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Nice shot! Is that just against a flat, printed background? It looks remarkably good if it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 Yeah, I hang on to the shelf backgrounds from Toy Fair, and use them for pics. I won't tell you what license this is from! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 I just doubt the licensor would like me using their backgrounds for other licenses. We haven't started printing out backgrounds for next year's Toy Fair, although there will be new licenses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashmaster12 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I recognize the Batman having the backdrop from one of the TMNT shelves, and Starfire is in front of the one DST used for their My Little Pony banks. (You've gone too deep into a toy company when you know the backdrops they use for cons. ) Lovely pictures as always, Zach. What kind of camera do you use?

DSTZach Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 It's a Sony Cyber-Shot/Super SteadyShot DSC-H5, with 7.2 Megapixels, 12x optical zoom and of course a Macro setting. This the office camera DST had in the NYC office when I got there in 2011, but since it was originally used to document revisions for the factory, and modern camera phones took practical photos just fine, it wasn't being used very much. So I took it to my home office/studio and I use it pretty much every day or, usually, night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 Awesome! I've been meaning to shoot a BTTF 2 shot like that, but I have not been able to find my Future Marty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Ironically, Future Marty was two years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
