A few years ago there was a bit of a frenzy over images of the guys after they were dunked in water, or in Illya's case, actually took a swim.
The posting site was primarily on [livejournal.com profile] mfu_scrapbook and a lot of the pictures were by or for [livejournal.com profile] svetlanacat4
This is about the time of year (3 years ago), we got together, in mind and spirit, and made a quilt for her as she battled cancer far away from us all at her home in France.  Sadly, we lost her, and the wit and charm she brought to the pages of LJ.
So today the Sunday Pictorial is all about remembering a beloved cousin and her love of the men of UNCLE, especially when they're dripping wet.
Wet Illya and Wet Napoleon

The danger of being an UNCLE agent was of course part of the thrill of the show.  Finding your favorite in peril made the bond even greater as we watched them suffering at the hands of THRUSH, or sometimes other villainous types.
Napoleon and Illya have distinctly different methods of being held captive.  Solo uses a lot of expressions, while Kuryakin seems to capture the classicism of a tortured hero.
That might just be my own prejudices coming through, but that's the beauty of being a fan.
I'm showcasing Season 1, and please feel free to add more in the comments section.

Let the suffering begin...

Opening credits go to Lisa's Framecap Library If you have never visited her site it's a must have resource for MFU.
Okay, down to monkey business... Oh wait, that's a little later ;)
Today we'll cover the MFU costumes, an ode to Halloween.  It won't surprise anyone to find the Russian doing most of the costume changes, and Napoleon's seem to have a definite theme involving neckwear.  Let's get started with... Sneaky Russian.

See it all... )

The wardrobe is always interesting on MFU, sometimes for the sake of it being so droll at times.  What I wouldn't give to have seen these guys in a pair of blue jeans with one of those white shirts.  The closest we get are those tight beige jeans that IK sometimes wears (I assume wardrobe did that for the fans ;).
Here are a few of the scenes illustrating just how black and grey the guys were.  Of course the show was in black and white, so there is the off chance that there was color in there somewhere.  We know the women's wardrobe was colorful because we see some of the same dresses in later seasons.  Of course these guys look good no matter what.
Feel free to add your own in the comments section.

See it in B&W )

I made these with Funko Pop Yourself. Not totally happy with the hair, but it was the best they offered.

The color picture, forever to be known as “Thud,” inspired me to finish an idea I had a while back.

I'm leaving the space open for any of you who might have constructed a pictorial or a story to go along with the photos I posted earlier. The photos are HERE
I hope to see some entries today.

I'm reposting the original because for some reason LJ won't let me pull up an address to link to... anyway... You can post your own pictorial or story (or both), on Sunday.

Okay, here's a little something extra for all of us to think about.  Take a look at the weekly calendar HERE
We have something called the Sunday Pictorial happening, and this week I'm giving you the inspiration (or we can call them prompts), for creating your own pictorial.  Now, make it all visuals or write a story based on one or more of these.  I'll admit it's primarily an Illya-centric selection, but that doesn't mean you can't find corresponding Napoleon pics to utilize in your own pictorial/stories.
The IK pictures are sort of dark, except for the one gorgeous color face... THUD!  Oh yeah, I'm in that kind of mood.
Okay, here goes...pictures... )

This is probably a favorite scene for most of us.  I mean, what can we not like about Illya stripping down out of a wet tee shirt in the front seat of a car?  Seriously.
So, follow the Russian and enjoy todays Sunday Pictorial...

The Men from UNCLE generally looked very good in a tuxedo.  We have a few issues with Illya's ruffled shirt, something they apparently snatched from a wedding collection (according to [livejournal.com profile] mrua7), and in reviewing it does appear that the shirt could have used a few darts.
The first season has more tuxedos than any of the following years, starting with Napoleon (infamous wrong sided part in his hair).  If you find more tuxedo photos please feel free to post them in your comments.


The part is actually missing completely, but he looks very nice.
