ALIENS THE OFFICIAL MOVIE THREAD

[The ill Jedi]

I think everyone's left foot is loose. Mine was fine for the first few poses but eventually came off when I did my GIF thing and was really bending him around. It really just pops off when posing the legs in extreme positions for me.

If I even look at mine wrong or a stiff breeze hits him the foot pops off.

sweeet pics Magnuz!!

Yup, my left ankle is loose as well... Thank god for the balancing tail!!! Hopefully they will fix this in future figures though as loose ankles is one of my biggest peeves with ankle articulation. It happens far to often.

Am I the only one who thinks it looks like the Alien and the Endo are out on a date in this one?

I love how Magnuz says, 'I snapped a few pics...' and they look all professional.

Pjam, where can I get some Blu Tac? My left foot is loose too.

Any Drug store or hobby shop. Mine is called Elmer's Poster Tac. It comes in light blue bars and feels like putty.

Thanks for the info Sir P!!

Thanks for the info Sir P!!

My pleasure, my man! You'll need it for other stuff too. I used it to tac down my Hudson Camo cover. It comes in handy for a lot of stuff. I also used it in my Apone neck joint to keep that heavy resin head in place.

This and so many other things I learned from Wor-Gar.

Has anyone tried to remove the( rather too obvious ) seam line running down the front of the Warriors head yet? It's a small thing I know, but I find it really distracting , especially in close up shots . I'm going to have a crack at it as soon as I build up the courage ! A sharp blade is probably the best bet , but want to avoid having to re-paint , if at all possible . The problem is , I can't really decide whether the plastic in that area is hard , injection type plastic , or the softer , vinyl type . H.T have done such a good job of mixing different materials that it's difficult to tell !

tell you what let me try it first!!! just in case!! really cause it bugs me to!

 

[Magnuz]

The top head shell is a hard plastic, hollow, so its probably an injection molded piece and only so thick.

You could probably sand the seam off, or try to cut it, sanding may be the best option to retain smoothness cause cutting could get jagged. Either way though your going to face the problem of the plastic itself probably not being as glossy as the black paintjob on the majority of hte forehead, and the plastic most likely being black and therefore anything you hit in the blue airbrushing requiring repainting.

So i don't see it being really done without marring the paintjob, the seam may be less distracting than an obvious line of dulled paint.

Thats what i was thinking!!! and i suck at Painting!!!
