When it comes to action figures, it results Dwayne Johnson He wants to make sure he’s much more muscular.
In a recent interview with Popverse, Todd McFarlaneThe legendary creator of comics and magnate toy behind McFarlane Toys, shared a story behind the scenes that perfectly illustrates as detail and diplomacy go to the design of authorized collectibles.
While discussing the process of development of figures for 2022 Black AdamMcFarlane revealed that Dwayne Johnson had a very specific note on the figure of action of her character.
“Recently, we had to get the approval on” Black Adam “and the only comment by Dwayne Johnson was – that I think he was right – if he were,” can you get more torn? ”
In reality it seems foolish, but in reality it was right, because I think that all of us, in our mind, we have a romantic version of many people, and the costume itself has not shown its muscles.
“We were very precise for the costume, it is only that the costume was not showing him, so he only wanted that we showed him a little more. We took some artistic license to do it. I think it was the right move.”
It might seem like a case of classic rocky branded spavalderdia, but I imagine it makes sense. McFarlane stressed that even if the figure was designed with careful loyalty to the screen, the film costume did not do enough to show Johnson’s truly absurd physique.
And when it comes to approvals, McFarlane has a rule:
“Let me tell you that even if I disagree, the customer is always right. I’m looking for an approval. Hey, if you want me to give you two heads, I will give you two heads. Whatever you need for me to get a sign.”
The goal is not to stubbornly stick to the first version, it is to do something that feels just for the people involved, especially when that person is literally the face and the age bust. Johnson’s note was not vanity, it was a matter of making sure that the action figure resembled Black Adam.
The collector’s world is full of examples in which the final product does not completely capture the physicality of the actor, such as the hot toys version of Spider-Man of Tobey Maguire from No Way Home, which the fans noticed seemed a little too lean for the famous Spidey.
Then stage objects for the rock for capturing it soon and McFarlane to adapt to follow him.
