    Hot Toys - TMS136 - Savage Oppress 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure

    You are not alone on this one. I'd rather they looked like the animation they are from. If they subsequently appear in live action, like Cad Bane, then also make a live action version. But as a fan of the animation, that's the version I want.

    InArt: The Lord of the Rings - Legolas 1:6

    Give it time, it's still in the process of being released. Let's see what it sells for in 12 months time. Regardless of what it's future price actually is, a mark up is a mark up, and I have no desire to pay even more for it in the future.

    InArt: The Lord of the Rings - Legolas 1:6

    Just placed my order with Kit. The figure is very expensive, but not as expensive as he'll end up after release. I can always sell him on later down the line if I'm not feeling it when i get him in hand. Better that than regretting not pre-ordering it later on.

    Action Figure Show your custom Lara Croft 1/6 scale figures! 20+ years of the Tomb Raider...

    The box for the original Tomb Raider game included the wording "featuring Lara Croft".

    To do the back jump, get your guns out (hold L trigger on my controls), then tap back on the stick. All of the original Lara moves are in there, you just need to get used to it.

    Too much time spent on modern games chaps, you're going soft! 😉 i really love the new remasters, theyre fantastic, and the modern controls work great, you just need to practice for an hour or two (And remap a few buttons to suit). TR1 beaten, on to TR2!

    My brother just received his Gandalf today from TW......it isn't all fake from what I'm seeing. Thankfully, I didn't order from them, I'm waiting on one from,Kit.

    Hot Toys Royal Guard

    No, ironing makes it worse. I already ironed it. The backing to the robe is, I believe, attached between the two layers. It only comes down an inch or so from the head and then stops. Ironing it just makes that horizontal line REALLY stand out. I had a hot toys guard, and I ironed that. It was...

    Hot Toys Royal Guard

    Okay, for anyone who hasn't tried this one..... So I took the outer robes off, thoroughly soaked them under a tap. Then I put them back on the guards and smoothed it out. Over the subsequent 7 or 8 hours I periodically smoothed out, stretched a little, and generally shaped the robes as they...

    Might try a LOT of steam next.....see if that has any impact.

    Hot Toys Royal Guard

    Yeah, I was mulling that one over too, but havent gone to that length yet. My suspicion thiugh, is that the material within the cape causing the issue may be fixed to the external Cape. I futzed about trying to shift it when ironing with no success.

    Hot Toys Royal Guard

    The under helmet folds on both of mine were exactly like yours....wiggly! I carefully ironed them to get them to how they look in my pictures above. I also very carefully ironed the capes, as i had done with my Hot Toys version previously, and it doesn't get rid of the line. If anything, it...

    Hot Toys Royal Guard

    This may show it clearer: It's a backing to the cape material I think, between the two layers of the cape. If anyone has any success in resolving that, please let me know how!

    Hot Toys Royal Guard

    In natural light, not an issue : But when I turn my lighting on, you can clearly see it: It appears to be attached to the back inner side of the cape.

    Hot Toys Royal Guard

    I also could not get the boots on, despite many attempts, with 4 different boots, and a huge amount of applied pressure. I gave up, shaved the ankle pegs down, and applied blu tack. That resolved it for now. For me, the only real problem is the horizontal line across his outer cape, on his...

    Hot Toys Royal Guard

    My ERG was contender for the most static figure that I've ever owned, and was mostly there as an expensive accessory for my Palpatine. Standing in that classic stock pose, after I have ironed and smoothed that robe, it would be difficult to distinguish this figure from the Hot Toy. Getting the...

    That looks great. I'm pleasantly surprised, they look so close to the Hot Toy on display.

    JND Studios: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade - 1:3 Harrison Ford and Sean Connery

    "Minor product details are subject to change" would not equate to completely changing the portrait (which is what would be required to make it look anything like Harrison Ford). That would be a fundamentally major change, surely?

    JND Studios: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade - 1:3 Harrison Ford and Sean Connery

    They aren't likely to change the likeness. Can you even do that once people have put their money down? If I've paid thousands for the statue as it is, and then you change the headsculpt to something else (that, for arguments sake, I may really dislike), haven't you given me rightful grounds...
