Title: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: jarmo on May 07, 2005, 06:47:53 PM The following is taken from McFarlane Toys' web site:
--- Finally, we will be adding two brand-new music-related items to our online toy catalog in the form of our very first three-dimensional representations of legendary album covers. These pieces will take classic album covers and re-create them in a way only McFarlane Toys could, beginning with... Appetite For Destruction (Guns 'n' Roses) Led Zeppelin 1 (Led Zeppelin) We have plans for more of these in the future. More details and imagery of these products will be available in the coming months, so be sure to check the News section regularly to remain up-to-speed on the latest information pertaining to all things McFarlane. --- Full story (http://www.spawn.com/news/news1.aspx?id=12595) Source(s): http://www.spawn.com Thanks to: Chris /jarmo Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: Gunner80 on May 07, 2005, 06:51:54 PM Sounds sweet. : ok:

Fuck this. ?I broke this story over a year ago. . . ?on this board, I beleive. Way before the Motley Crue box, I had a quote about the biggest rock bands of the 80's being produced. Thanx for your patience.

The cover with the girl and robot would be way cooler in 3d! But still, I'm looking forward to it.

Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: GNR estranged on October 10, 2006, 03:16:12 PM these things are pretty nice. there arent pics of the gnr one yet.
here is led zeppelin: (http://www.spawn.com/toys/music/other/lz-lz1/images/other_lz-lz1_photo_02_dp.jpg) and here is metallica: (http://images.entertainmentearth.com/%5CAUTOIMAGES%5CMF12910.jpg) the appetite one will probably have the cross coming out like 3d. should be really nice. Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: BumbleFinck on October 10, 2006, 03:21:14 PM the gnr one got scrapped to my knowledge as in they aren't maing it anymore. The led zeppelin one that was supposed to come out at the same time came out a long time ago.
Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: blaqktiger on October 10, 2006, 04:30:46 PM Yeah I think something happened and they couldn't make the AFD cross, which is a shame. I was really looking forward to that.

I won these beauties on Sunday paid $26 inc postage to uk for 'em from the US Ebay site. The description says that the replica album covers has CD's that play featured tracks on 'em, don't know what they are and don't want to wreak the packaging to play something already got.... Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: Buddha_Master on October 10, 2006, 05:05:49 PM WTF? Thats funny.
Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: KeVoRkIaN on October 10, 2006, 05:06:45 PM Oh please be the original cover!!!!!!
Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: patcooper on October 10, 2006, 05:15:59 PM Oh please be the original cover!!!!!! no it was not going to be the orignal cover and yes this was scrapped.Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: gcluskey on October 10, 2006, 06:36:44 PM Why don't they just do models of the whole original lineup? I bought the Slash doll and it looks fuckin class, it'd be cool to have the whole band, shame they scrapped that AFD cover
Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: BumbleFinck on October 10, 2006, 06:40:24 PM because to make the whole band that slash is in, they would be making scott weiland figures. I doubt any of the member(aside from steven) would want a set of figures to come out of their old project.

Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: AxlsRoses on October 10, 2006, 11:25:46 PM Quote Yeah, I was wondering why this got posted since it got scrapped. Maybe cause this thread was started may 5, 2005? But those pics of the toy cars are kick ass. wish i had them. :yes: Title: Re: McFarlane Toys to make "Appetite For Destruction" piece Post by: codenameninja on October 11, 2006, 08:10:13 AM (http://i10.ebayimg.com/04/i/07/c4/23/c3_1.JPG) I won these beauties on Sunday paid $26 inc postage to uk for 'em from the US Ebay site.

I doubt any of the member(aside from steven) would want a set of figures to come out of their old project. But he's dressed in the exact same clothes from the Sweet Child video so he obviously agreed to it. It's a moment in musical history, a musical icon from an era gone by captured in plastic or resin or whatever it is. They should do the whole band as individuals |
