1:6 Scale Custom Action Figures by Paul Data

Intro:

During the years 1998 through 2005 I built approximately 500 1:6 scale action figures and dolls, using custom resin cast parts combined with bodies and accessories from companies such as Dragon Models (DML), Sideshow Toys, Airfix Models, and Ignite, to name just a few. They would ultimately incorporate many handmade parts and accessories by myself and friends met on the MWD forum (Men With Dolls), The 6th Division, and Fantasy Net; very energetic online 1:6 scale customizing communities that proliferated in the 90s.

Here are some of my Skeleton Soldiers, ’animorphs’, zombies, and critters that I refer to as ‘non-traditional casting types’; skeletons, manimals, and femfigs in the roles of warriors, mythical knights, pirates, and men-at-arms from bygone eras.

Of the +/- 500 figures that I built, I have about a dozen left, the rest having  gone to new homes with collectors across the globe.

I hope you enjoy these bizarre and sometimes disturbing creatures that have apparently sprung directly from my subconscious…


Many of the figures were shown at Toy Shows in and around NYC, and Toy Tokyo and Village Comics had displays of them up for a while.

 My ‘Fetish Figures’ were very popular


I also began doing ‘Historical and Mythological’ Themed figures
