Border Patrol: Life-Sized Chucky, 1/6 Scale Dutch, and 1/12 Scale Goldberg

I guess you could call this a TV and movie edition of Border Patrol.

Life-Sized Chucky by Dream Rush and MIKE MSR – this one of a kind life-sized (33-inches tall) figure was customized by a professional special effects make-up artist in the movie business – the auction is already approaching the $1,200 mark and there’s still close to five days left – and I thought the Mezco Chucky was scary – ends Nov 03, 2013 06:00:57 PST
