Can I get a little help from the toy gurus?

good call tim. it would be perfect if they would just make j&d figs just like them. I had the r&c figs in my hands in the store but didn't buy. I could maybe take the Edward head n put him on Ratchet's body, but we'll see. I never know what will work best until I start cutting n sculpting. thx for the input. :-)

what about the ratchet and clank figures they seem to be similiar art style

Oh man don't I know it. A quick ebay search was a nice gut check. I have my feelers out for the kai version because the face looks more mature. But either way, ouch, not cheap. I don't even want to think about mistakes when I start the project with a base fig that spendy. I'll be using jedi reflexes and spidey senses to make it happen.

Edward be careful man becouse if your talking about the original Edward Elric play art he is very expensive sometimes averaging over a hundred dollars

Thanks man, I appreciate it. I have a few of the 7" NECA video game figures and as far as I can tell Edward Elric is about 7". I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried about it. Especially since they are not cheap but I think I can make him work with my video game lineup. They are on a separate shelf from my MLs and DC figs. I was going to have Jak be a bit shorter than say, a Kratos or Altair since he is pretty elfy but as long as it's not one of the 9" figs I think it'll be aight. And when I pull the trigger on one I will ask for an exact measurement of the actual one being shipped just to be sure. Thanks again.

Be careful. I collect play arts and they arent really 6 inch scale

I guess no one else is very familiar with the manga stuff either. lol. No worries. I did some sifting and settled on Play Arts figs to make it happen.
