Oh, now I see how Robbie has another one 
. I'm not a stand guy so I didn't look in that case. So they were nice enough to include an extra peg.... I hit the panic button a little too fast 
I know it would've been fairly easy to replace and make due with something else but I was concerned about skin tone; plus I hate when s__t breaks on day 1 no matter how small it is
WHERE'S MY MONEY???!!! I'LL CUT YOUR F__KIN' LIVER OUT!!!!

I'm sure me, Robbie & MQ aren't the first guys to already break a peg. Careful fellas 
These exact ones aren’t easy to find

Same for me. I was being lazy. I do think these pegs are a little fragile though. Pop did you just get one too?
Yup. That's what they give us bro. I just bought a spare on eBay and the listing was for one. Most people who sell the bodies include the 2 pegs so these are scarce out there

you guys might have missed it, but i posted back there that bane has the same style pegs. i haven't tried to match them because i ain't touching carlito's hands until i get over the freak out, but they look like they would fit.
might be easier to find and cheaper than the carlito ones.

They're actually different brother. The ball on Bane's is slightly bigger and the stem that inserts into the body is very slightly bigger (I didn't try to put it in but it's visually bigger).
HT makes two ball sizes (for male characters); small and large. Bane's is the large one. I think the larges are too big for Carlito and the smalls are definitely a lot smaller than the BW.
Also Bane's skin tone in way darker. He has the HT tan like you mentioned (which is pretty true).
My camera is dead but I'll take comparison pics tomorrow

awww darn ~ i was hoping ~
didn't want to take carlito's hands off to verify since there's been a rash of breakings. and i live in a cold climate which is hard on those little pegs.

Hey bro I think u just bought a James Dean head off me on eBay lol! Got him packed up will ship out tomorrow!
Hey guys here's a tip on minimizing peg breakages, same story with the scarfaces the pegs are too big for the holes in the hand so simply just slice off a very thin layer of plastic in a circular motion around the circumstance of the holes in the hand and you can swap them easily without risking breakage.
No what the heck did I use those for I wonder...??? For something... I do have the vest and shirt but that's all that's left of him!
The boots aren't a bad option for Grimes, even though they're not the accurate full height
Where's the best place to pick this guy up nowadays???

Vikingplayground still has him for $175.
Yup. Robbie pointed this out to me (I didn't even think to check their site) and coincidently I already picked up a bunch of stuff from there before. I just went and got this for $175 flat from him along with a T-1000 that I've been bugging him to sell me for a while now (he finally broke
). I believe I got the last one but Alexi (owner) told me they were getting more Carlitos. I was thinking of getting another one for the body and some spare parts (I'll be selling the head and outfit if anyone is interested).
He's in Sheep's Head Bay. If you want to roll and see if he'll do 2 more for $165-170 each LMK!
I'm down. Let me know what's up!
