So, as it turns out, 1:6 scale figures are no longer just for kids. Hot Toys and Sideshow Collectibles have turned them into high art via their photorealistic collectible releases of characters like Freddy Krueger to Michael Myers. So too has boutique 1:6 scale company Ones Customs Figures, which offers up one-of-a-kind reimaginings of some of horror’s most beloved icons.

On the latest episode of the Gemr-produced docu-series Collection Complete, we get a look at Ones Customs Figures, the company producing these figures. Diverging from the show’s normal narrative we meet one of the stars of the 1:6 scale world, whose work is highly sought after by those who collect within it: Ones Customs’ owner and operator Montwain Gonzales.
From his roots as a young boy sculpting with Mighty Putty (having been inspired at a tender age by the work of Rick Baker in Michael Jackson’s Thriller video) to his creation as an adult of Ones Customs, Gonzales provides an intimate look at his journey from horror fan to horror fan turned artist.
