sg...you should so do a genie/Aladin universe. I had a similar idea but had/have way to many projects going as it is.

I'm in the same boat as I have so many projects going on. But, if I made a Genie figure I could use it to tie all my different universes together; Fantasy, ZomPoc, SciFi, as he could be a character in all three.

Here’s where I’m at with Genie.

I feel like it need something but I don’t know what.

maybe more brown instead of black. a leather clad jeanie is somehow even worse! besides that maybe paint out or heatshrink over the knee pads. really good job on the hair. i assume it is real hair, it looks real!

I'm not sure. I went back and forth with the black. I like the black with purple. It's less leather and more billowy pirate shirt. I'm not sure what color I could do with the purple pants that wouldn't end up looking horrible.

I purposely kept the knee pads. I want him to fit into all three of my universes and like the knee pads. :/

The hair is from a McFarlane figure.

I'm thinking more in terms of accessories. I want to add a sword and sheath to his waist. Maybe a couple of pouches. I'm looking to find a scale appropriate lamp for the genie. I feel like it may need some sort of soft good but I'm not sure what

I wonder if there are some "force effect" accessories you could wrap his legs with for a "coming out of the lamp" look. Honestly, the only part that doesn't look quite right to me is how plain the arms look compared to the rest, which looks dynamite. Can the cuffs of the shirt be painted to look like bracelets or purple like the pants to break up the solid black?

Accessories I think just some force/magic effects for him to hold (those ring effects that came with the 5 POA Scarlett Witch for instance).

I figured out what was missing. His other shoulder armor and sash.

I like the purple wrist idea. Or maybe gold? Think I might do it.

Effects would be cool. What’s nice about this figure is top half can pop off the waist/legs. I can swap it with just about anything.

all nice touches. i hate genies, just creepy, but your work is great!

Added sash is great!

Is there a 4" Hydro Man with a water lower body you could use for a coming out of the bottle effect? I was going to suggest that originally, but if he's already made to pop apart at the waist seems like there's gotta be something you could swap the legs with for a smoke/mist/magic genie "tail".

I think there might be. Now I've gotta look around

Well thanks to DanOfTheDead I picked up a Hydroman figure off ebay cheap. Once it arrives I'll work on making it a genie effect. Till then I need to find an appropriate lamp

Playmobil is probably a good place to start looking, glad you found a hydroman, that should look cool.

Also I wonder if there's some cantina or Jabba's palace accessory that might make a cool, less traditional lamp... Something more multi verse

i'd look at metal trinkets ,and charms/pendants too.

Playmobile is a good idea as is something different, I was thinking along the same lines of multiverse. I kinda want to find a hooka or something
