I am still slowly adding some figures to my collection , I am trying to add some diversity to it . So here is my latest edition Bruce Lee . What a legend who passed away far to early . So here is my Bruce Lee story . I brought the sculpt and the black suit first , and ordered a phicen Asian style body , The Phicen Asian body is supposedly THE body for Bruce Lee customs . You even get a set of Kung Fu styled hands with it . So my the sculpt and suit showed up , and a while after I got the Phicen body , fitted the head , and tried on the suit ....Well it was rather frustrating that the suit wouldn`t fit the Phicen body too well , it was very tight , and so I then ordered a ZC Asian body , as these are the company that made the suit , and I figured well that`s gotta fit right ? I am pleased to say it did . Though it`s got nowhere near the articulation of a Phicen , I can live with it , but if any figure would work well on a Phicen , it`s a Bruce Lee figure . I may try and pick up some Kung Fu type clothing that fits a Phicen , or just use the pants I have as they fit ...I think . But that`s for another day . I custom made some weaponry for Bruce , a staff , some short sticks and the Nunchakus , the training wood post is a toy I brought for some Pet Rats I had a long time ago ...never throw anything away . I hope you like the photos .

It's a great outfit for sure, and you have certainly nailed the "kung flu" poses!
You had pet....rats???
Had a bit of a go at a martial arts figure myself a while ago but he doesn't seem to have the posing ability of yours.

Thanks for the kind comments chaps . Your figure don`t look so bad Barry , the suit looks nice and loose anyways .
Yes I had a few pet Rats in the past , totally misunderstood and underrated animals , exceptionally clever and fun . I had two brothers once , the play fights were comical , and I used to dish them a roast dinner now and again , they piled in and ended up sleeping it off after . You need to handle them a lot from a young age , I got bit once , and you really don`t want to be bit by a Rat , exceptionally painful .

I haven't been friends with any rats since the Bubonic Plague, ...or Michael Jackson wished he had a friend like "Ben"...!

That's something that's never bothered me either GM. I know the seamless figures can look more realistic, ....well except for those ankle and wrist gaps that often need to be disguised but the articulated figures still manage to look and photograph well.
