Brickheadz - Teen Wolf (1985)
For whatever reason Brickheadz didn't seem very interesting to me. Then I bought Robin so I could use the black flotation rings for K-2SO and was surprised to find that I really enjoyed building it. I'd also been overestimating their size in my head; they're smaller and cuter than I thought! Anyway, that got me looking at all the cool custom Brickheadz out there and thinking about ones I could make.
Teen Wolf (1985) (not the TV show) is one of my favorite movies (and has a soundtrack I enjoy) so this was a no brainer for me. I built the main character, Scott Howard / Teen Wolf himself, in his basketball uniform.
I had a lot of fun building this! And because I spent way too much time on them I am going out of my way to point out the blue stripes on the side of the uniform. I looked for number stickers on bricklink but the closest I could find were the hockey ones, which have a white backing (maybe you know of some transparent ones?). So the 42 is made using this tape transfer technique. I tried to make a "Beavers" sticker to put above it but you couldn't really see it behind the hair.
I look forward to building more of these; they're a nice break from robots. I like the constraints involved and sort of think of these as a puzzle to solve.
