Question: Are the hands hard plastic like most 1/6 figures or some other material?

 

[Mazukou]

It feels soft ruberry

Anybody heard from Mrs Hurricane lately? Her inbox has been full for some time. Was still hoping to get domes.

 

[Kamandi]

Looking through this thread there's some decent pics of dome lowering and where to dremel. Does anyone have a really decent pic the neck mods?

What can I use to buff up the thighs?I dont like that they are so thick and the pants doesnt sit right.I tried with cotton but didnt like the outcome.Also is it worth getting the Ifiorignio cape and tunic?Is it much better than the stock ones?

I used those thigh muscle that came with true type figures those seem to work out great

I'd say it's a must for ANH Vader; I got one and the difference is night and day. But not sure you need it for ESB as that set of cape and robes is a different material and seems to hang nicely as-is.

Yes. No.

I lost the plastic chain for the cape . Does anyone one have an extra one ? Or any suggestions for a replacement?

Sorry folks that I am being lazy... I want to switch my TESB Vader helmet, box, belt over to my KP-02 body frame. Having difficulties attaching the helmet. I have been searching but no luck regarding which date this was possible done?

Any recommendations please for this novice please?

Thank you.

Best way should be cuttin' about 0,5cm of the neck rubber and putting some tape around the ball joint.

Thank you very much.

What is the difference? All I see is a stiff looking Vader. What an unnecessary thread.

What a great way to summarize a few hundred posts. Do you know a guy named ck1? Is this ck1's new account?

Nope. I see no difference other than Vader looking stiff.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that the helmet was completely modded for removeable reveal. Only required a little bit of dremeling and switching out the neck adapter to fit on the KP02 neck plug and had to remove the rubber/silicone helmet ring on the back of the neck.

Would like a tutorial on how to do this! I imagine it all not "clicking" into place right? It's loose?
