in crowd ages of metal

I dont think they're straight tributes like the ages of metal more "based on".
The girl i dont think is siouxsie, there was this ubiquitous "Punk Girl" who was a famous photo of the day. I dont remember her name now tho, she was just an early scenester... will google and post if i find it.

 

That's how I feel about the Punk line too pretty much.

 

absolutely not siouxie...maybe wendy williams if anything but not likely either

 

i thought it kinda looked like gary numan too

 

Sorry for the crap Gif but its all i can find... its her..

 

not siouxsie sioux...but a kings road scenester who hung out with siouxsie sioux

 

jeb for the win!

 

wasnt that broad on an obey print?



ONE MORE TILL 1K

 

no,,abe for the win!

i was just backing you up..

yes,,i think shep has used her image....along with every thing else..

p.s.- where is the darby crash figure??

 

BloodDrinker, excellent spotting!

I have no idea but to my eye he's your average "weekend new waver" who is a little bit Gary Numan fan, a little bit Jam fan. Buys their "punk" gear at boutiques rather than army surplus and Goodwill stores. Pardon my residual cynicism.

 

These were the first "designer" toys I ever bought!

I still think the zombies are the best, they were made differently then the rest of the series, supposedly they were cheaper quality but I like them the most.

love love love in crowd. my fav is the natives. But most are awesome.
Sadness is maybe they are done for a longtime. Anybody here dif?

 

I'm bummed too that he's made the switch to those large scarle vinyl figs...just not as good as the In Crowd...I do hope he starts making sets again...but it's not looking good...

Oddly enough, the Nokia set, which can sell for a lot sometimes is the most common of all of them..I spoke with someone from Amos that told me there were several thousand sets made!

 

I heard that about the Nokia set too, I think it's awesome but I've never thrown down that kind of stupid money for it. I have tried to contact everyone involved including Nokia before with no luck.

an ebay seller recently blew through a bunch of sets for around $125 each (without the box that holds all the smaller boxes) and then incomplete sets missing one figure for a lot less than that...

I missed out on all of them, and now all that's left are 4350 BIN sets...maybe some other Nokia employee who's hoarding these will come to their senses and sell them for a reasonable amount...I'd pay around $100 for a complete set with no problem...

 

Yeah I'd pay that for sure, but it would have to have the big box!

 

about 3 years ago I contacted Nokia in Finland & in the US...........
they both told me that the sets were all gone, but the guy in NY said that he had an unopened set in his drawer & one on his desk & that since I was a
collector he would send me one, which he did - AT NO CHARGE!

I have all of Jarvis' In-Crowd sets except for the Zombies....... they
are still my favorites & I agree with Bwana that the AGE OF METAL set is the best........

 

Hey could you call that Nokia guy again and ask him to send me a set to.

Thanks!

 

the kerry king one doesn't have nowhere near enough shitty tribal all over the place.

 

I think she went by Kat, or something like that. Cant quite remember either. The Capt. Sensible is pretty sweet.

 

Praying to the Aliens

funny post of the month

James did this sketch for me last time he was at Meltdown...I colored it.

 

the Chair from the Nokia set is hilarious
and still retains all the Jarvis Characteristics...

I LOVE in crowd, I really like the forever sensible Motorcycle Club. I would def trade JP vinyl for any Jarvis I dont have.Hit me up people!
