Great review and she put him next to the hulk

Excellent -- more guys getting Grievous. I'm as eager as the rest to see other's pics.

Hey Paramore, how is the head on your Grievous? Does it hold a pose when pushed as far back as it wil go? Or does it want to slip back to a neutral position? I'm over-extending mine to help the hunch so I don't expect it to hold a position it wasn't designed to, but 'm curious how easy your Grievous head is to move.

I'm going to try the cape on today.

Bizzarre I can't open that link, but cheers anyway.





EXACTLY what I was looking for. Hey Para, Wor-Gar, stop playing with Grevious and post some more pics!
He will be mine in the morning...

But he's so photogenic! Can't stop taking pics.

As soon as I'm finished, they'll be straight up.

He looks massive next to Captain America.

Wow it's really hard trying to take the pegs out to swap round his arms!

Yeah, just work it back and forth very, very slowly and they will come out. Someone here used pliers but I wouldn't recommend that as it could leave 'teeth' marks in the plastic.

Head does hold in place in every position I've put it in.

Thanks. I may have a 'wobbly' head then. Might need to do the glue trick in the ball joint to stiffen it up. Balljoint is easily available should anyone else find their Grievous head needs to be a little firmer hold.

 

[generalgrevious]

yeah I remember the old glue in the joint trick. just make sure you rotate the joint back and forth until you notice that it`s starting to stiffen up. leave it and it will be shot. used to do that trick with my old GI-JOE`S back in the days

You can also use nail polish remover too to stiffen a ball joint. I use to do that on my transformers ball joints.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Remover? How does that work?

I would like to know my self

you just apply a thin coat over the ball joint and let it dry. After it dries just pop it back on it it should be tighter. Very easy if you want to tighten ball joints.

Thanks!

Nope. Can't see anything wrong with him. He's no Vader!

I'm just totally, totally blown away. Never seen anything like it, it's definitely Sideshow's masterpiece. I can see him going for crazy money. Posing options are endless. I'm in awe.

That is good to hear para. I was thinking that he looked a bit to 'toyish' but hearing from yourself and Wor-Gor has really reinforced my believe that he will be a great addition to the collection.

Loving the pics and a big thanks to those people who have been posting pics of Grievous.

I'd recommend clear nail polish (not the remover). It basically dries in the joint to give some extra grip and is removable. Another option is adhesive putty in small amounts. The remover I assume would potentially do a bit of damage since its acetone.

you're right. It is clear topcoat. I just looked at my bottle. For some weird reason I thought it was remover. Thanks for the correction bruin1773

 

[Wor-Gar]

That makes more sense than remover. Sort of slightly fattens the head.

Awesome upside down pic. Much appreciated as I was beginning to think I was the only one that ever did that. Truly, thank you.....
