Thank you very much
I will show where to cut, how to mark, what screws and O-Rings I used and what articulation range there will be. I will demo the Articulation range in a video. I have to plan this, since there is no going back after the cut and I want to show you with the final pieces so there wont be any misunderstanding. Otherwise I would have cut it already and opened the hole as I see fit, but I feel a lot of people are scared of this method ^^
For my Grogu, I will go with version 2. Cutting the bottom piece of the head. This will bring the head closer to the ball joint, allowing more articulation range. But for this, you will need either expanding foam or apoxie sculpt (or similar products). I will show this too, after I finished Version 1, again, because I can't go back, after cutting the bottom part of the head
Just checking if there was any update on this. Be great to get the head to be able to move. Thanks!

My Lil guy showed up today! Looks great, as everyone said, the rosy cheeks look more subtle in person. A movable arm would kick it over the top!

Just got mine as well, feel like he?s maybe 80-90% there
Unfortunately not. I had surgery and work and other more important projects piled up, so I have to get them done first. He is still disassembled on the work bench, it's gonna be done, no worry

I don't know what it is, but he looks especially cute and fun in this photo. The potato sac looks a little more poofed out out!

It's a terrific piece. They just slightly overdid the rosy cheeks and forgot to put hair on his ears. Enjoy.

Uneven eye lids, eyes misaligned, the rosy cheeks I knew about but was ready to fix that. I saw someone say they think the quality of the later batches are gonna be worse than the first. Not sure how they can determine that but I got to thinking about the molds that Sideshow's production is using. Do they suffer quality after so many casts are made. My mind is just racing.
Obviously I'm seeing a lot of people happy but I really have the worse luck when it comes to SS's QC issues. I'll get mine and I'll have all the above issues.
Fingers crossed for none of that though.Uneven eye lids, eyes misaligned, the rosy cheeks I knew about but was ready to fix that.

True I've wondered about mold deterioration before, I'm personally okay with the eyes and cheeks but I am worried about such a big time difference from when people started receiving them to when I will get mine which says May 2021. I do hope it stands up to the same quality as what the first customers received

Finally received mine last week. It took a while to land here in Australia, had it on order since Feb 2020. Not too bad wait time really. The child looks great, definitly more red around the cheeks and ears. Not sure if i'll modify him yet but i'm pretty happy as is!

This guy is TOO much fun. No complaints here. Even the rosy cheeks don't bother me. Thank you Sideshow.
