naked resin ladies

Odd that no one mentioned Dr. Flintbone, Jimmy Flintstone's "other" figure line.--Riff

With a bit of altering, especially some of the hairdoos, these might make some good models to display with a show car or diorama.

I can't find the Phoenix Phollies except at other sites, but if you do a search on that title you can find them. I've seen a few of them and they are much bigger than 1/24. And they are quite,.... um,.... er,.... ahem,...... accurate if you catch my drift!

As far as that problem with the magazine, someone is going to complain about everything sooner or later. I agree with lilBEAR, if a person doesn't want to see that, don't look.

thnks , those are perfect. i like those better than the naked ones

OK, these aren't naked but they would look good on your ride.

I know you're into militaria (spelling?), perhaps I'll send ya a pic of it all when I get brave enough?!

I don't know if it counts It might fit. There is always hope. A shadow box wouldn't be too hard. I have to see that pic

talking of figures,does anybody know what happened to the English company PHOENIX MODELS. They did some great white metal figures. Apart from the girls they had a range of Victorian civilians and soldiers. I have a collection of 30 of the girls and a great diorama of a Highwayman and stage coach with passengers. I am distanly related to Claude Duvall the infamous kissing highwayman.Despite the name he was thought to be English but the ladies preferred to be robbed by a dashing Frenchman.

Oh, no sweat. I figured you were speaking generally. I just wanted to clarify anyway. There was a feirce debate that spanned several issues in the letters section of Historical Miniatures Magazine on this subject. The magazine had run some ads for companies who made erotic figures. They only ran the relitively tame stuff, but people complained, some in the letters section. People were cancelling their subscriptions over it even. Very sad. The debate was entertaining though.

Sounds like a great Rock Group.. Hell i'll buy a ticket..

You have your thing for pinups, Heath. and I have you for men in uniforms. Read about chinese men and footbinding.

Great sites

try this site for the resin ladies

what site are you guys talking about

yes i found alot of ladies but none that i like.

Holy Crap!!! I found the makers of the Hitchhiker's set website...unfortunately they are going out of business. However, they have some really awesome, hot and sexy works of art that they are selling. It really is beautiful....it's a shame when grown adults can't find the beauty in nude women......ah well, more for me!!!! LOL Kelley, I appreciate your attitude towards these figures.....my girlfriend is the same way. She loves pin-ups, and has her own little collection of naughty pin-up stickers, and pics. It's great in my eyes, but there are always a few who are offended. We both feel that the woman's body is the most sensual, and beautiful thing in the universe. It's cool to see it immortalized. Gavinray, personally, I would appreciate you e-mailing a pic of your build when it's finished......with the naked beauty you choose to complete your car!!! Kelley, thank you for your positive attitude.....it's a shame people can't admire women without worrying about offending anyone!!!

It's just horrible that the british link posted wants to build a case against that company. It just makes you realize how narrow minded some people are and how far they'll go to push their beliefs on others. Sorry for being but I just had to add my GavinRay have you come across anything yet? let us know I'd like to know how your project is coming along!!! Kelley

Staying

I posted the link because I thought that perhaps the suit might have something to do with their going out of business. It probably didn't, since it seems that this was resolved in 2002 and it seems that no monitery settlement was imposed. I'm not sure that the site itself is responsible for the suit, but merely posting it along with other, similar suits. They do seem to represent an agenda of enforcing a particular version of decency however, but I'll have to look around a little more. This case was already settled in favor of the complaintant, so Mascot Models lost. I don't know why the magazine inwhich the ad appeared wasn't also hit. They had to approve the ad afterall.

Those kinds of things don't bother me either, though I can understand a concern over it being seen in an inappropriate environment, like say, a magazine intended specifically for children. I'm primarily a figure modeler and this has been a divisive subject of great discussion for years. Some people do not want to see that kind of thing anyewhere and they don't mind doing whatever they have to (short of the easiest thing, not looking) to keep it out of sight. At least the figures from Mascot look like women and not tall, skinny men with female anatomy, like so many products available do. As a sculptor, that's something I find offensive.

GavinRay,
Did you check out the 3 sites I wrote about?
You couldn't find anything out of those? I though there would someting there for you to use!!!
Kelley

I cant find anything on this topic.I really dont see how people get all mad because of a little plastic naked lady.In the lowrider mag, those girls are almost naked and so are the mags, stuff,fhm,maxim.I have a 1964 impala conv,its almost done,its white pearl with black and white interior.i have no rims yet.The truck is a perfect match to the real one.I built a display for it and now what a nice looking naked lady to sit next to it.I will post pics of it before i put the naked lady on there.

Hey plymonkey,

Interesting side not on mascot models.

Go to greatmodels.com and do a search for female figures.
There is another site that may be more useful for you but I'm still looking for the link! I'll let you know when I find it!!
Alright I found them. Check these first: hobby-online.com Click on Domestic Figures, then Female and Fantasy at the bottom of the page, then Mojo Resin.
There is also another link you'll have to do a search for called mascot models and this company is going out of business so they're having a sale. Still the figures are about $35. Their figures are erotic but look like they could have better details (maybe thats why they are going out of business) Still each one comes with a sheet of paint color suggestions!!
Hope this helps and Good luck
