It’s been a while I’ve been thinking about updating my sigfig. Originally I mainly wanted to update it because of the head. It doesn’t look like me at all (for example I don’t have a mustache) and I would like it to look more like me. However at the same time I really like the current head I’m using because which, in my opinion, is the best LEGO has ever made. The only faces I found that would look more like me are the most generic ones. After a few tries with different faces, I chose to use a classic smiling face. I also ended up changing most parts of the sigfig:
- Indiana Jones’ hat in dark tan
- Indiana Jones’ torso
- Major Quinton Steele’s legs
- A messenger pouch
- A classic smiling face
I spent quite a lot of time on this because I am very attached to Johnny Thunder hat and torso. I hesitated a lot but now I am sure that I want my sigfig to have a look close to this new one. The only thing I want to try to change is using less expensive and more common parts, particularly for the legs and torso. For the legs the problem is easily solved because I can simply use simple plain dark tan legs. For the torso it has been more difficult. I know I want to stick to a dark brown torso but I looked at all possible dark brown torsos on Bricklink catalog and none works as well as Indiana Jones’ one.
I still have hesitation. I would like to find a solution for the torso but I see none. Probably this could be solved later if LEGO release a new dark brown torso that works for me. But more important is the head. I really like the current head and I’m going to try to modify it in order to get rid of the mustache.
