Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
Just glue the forearm on. It won't affect the articualtion at all.

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
That's a side effect of the Pro's "modular" design. If it snaps back into place easily, it's a non-issue. Otherwise, if it bothers you that much, Obsolete's option is a good, albeit finite one. I'd just wrap the elbow stem in plumber's tape.

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
I´ve got my Henry Jones sr. today from Monkeydepot
with some members of his family
I think the jacket and the waistcoat are something small. Maybe with a neck a bit more long looks good

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
I actually prefer using plumbers tape around the elbow peg to adjoun the forearm. It tightens the joint and keeps it in place.

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
I swapped mine immediately to a narrow shoulder TT and it looks much better, except the sleeves of the shirt and jacket fit a little short. Has anyone figured out a work around for this problem? The head looks much better on the TT body, it suits the height of the body. I'd rather not put Henry on a shorter body, since Connery is a tall guy.

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
I know... I'm a jerk.
I'm really surprised at how many are porting Sr. over to TTs.... I was really happy with him on the Pro aside from the mod needed to gain a bit of height. I'm a stand guy so I guess that makes a difference too...

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
I'm not. It gives the figures better proportions, brings both of them up to part with the other Ford releases from Sideshow, and you don't have to worry about the "budget fix" that leaves the knee joints gaped. That would nag the living hell out of my OCD.

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
Understandable... I'm being a hypocrite anyway as I've switched just about all my Pro figures to TTs. Sr. Just happened to be an exception.

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
So far so good Not even an inkling of desire to swap over... Belloq and Toht are both on Pros too.
Let's see how long that lasts.

I picked up an extra Belloq head and watch and built out an Adventure Gear Belloq on a TT. As far as Toht, that little sweaty bastard was part midget anyway.

It doesn't compare to some of the other ones. He pretty much looks very similar to what Wor-Gar did. Maybe he'll post a pic for ya.
OOOOOOOOOH WOOOOOOOOOOOR-GAAAAAAAAAAR...

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
Yeah the Belloq adventure stye is much better than what we received. Take a look at Mfisher's.

Mfisher's is ridiculous. He always does fantastic work... I bought a watch thinking I would do a similar custom/bash.... Never happened.
Hey Nam, you no good son of a.... I want to see your collection!

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones
It's nice to be remembered for great work. If only it were mine.
I never did make an "Adventure Gear" Belloq -- I assume that means the Jungle gear outfit? I did modify the SS Belloq from his "Bar" guise into his "Tanid Dig" outfit -- meaning I just added a blue shirt and the scarf wrap.
I'd love to make a Jungle Belloq in Adventure Gear. I've had half the parts since 2000 to make one. But since I've seen Mfisher's it's just too much pressure to match that quality.
