Fight Club is a 1999 American film about an office employee Jack (Edward Norton) and a soap salesman, Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) building a global organization to help vent male aggression. Between the two men, the unhinged but magnetic Tyler becomes the antagonist later in the story.
Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) is a charismatic extremist of mysterious means. As the fight club's membership grows, Tyler begins to use it to spread his anti-consumerist ideas and recruits fight club's members to participate in increasingly elaborate pranks on corporate America. Tyler eventually gathers the most devoted fight club members (referred to as "space monkeys") and forms "Project Mayhem," a cult-like organization that trains itself as an army to bring down modern civilization.

ReplyDeleteThanks for putting up the intro on this figure. I got one for myself too just because I'm a Tyler Durden fan. Headsculpt resemblance-wise ... I personally think that it is probably around 70% close to Brad Pitt's looks. The dark skintone & rough skin texture might have reduce the likeness. I still like the figure nonetheless. But I'm hoping that Headplay makes a better head so that I can customise a Tyler bash with the costume parts from this set. ^_^
ReplyDeletethanks vincent & icemocha75 :)
ReplyDeletebesides being a brad pitt fan, i also liked the quality of the outfit for this brother production figure, especially Tyler's red leather jacket. IMHO it looks to be very well stitched and put together.
The sculpt and accessories are well made. The paint job on the facial sculpt can be better :)
ReplyDeleteNice! but the joint at the neck is an eyesore.haha :))
