At least your not almost 43 and feel like your body is falling apart
Enjoy the rest of your 30's - you are still young

Staps1138, I thought you were a lot younger. lol
Funny how the 80s feels like the 90s. Yet for some reason to some degree in that weird unexplained feeling they feel like they should be forgotten? yet it wasn't that long ago I was quite fond of the 90s. Is that weird? you know you're getting old when you see most of your old schools has been demolished and rebuilt in new locations. Including colleges.

As expensive as this hobby is i'm guessing 30's is the average age but i guess there are a lot of 20 somethings without kids yet or with great jobs who collect. As probably one of the older collectors here i have to say the "youngbloods" on this site are for the most part awesome guys and gals! I've had a lot of great interaction here and it keeps me going
I mainly just stick to the predator/aliens/terminator and custom walking dead figures so the majority of my stuff is from a much younger time in my life when things weren't so complicated.

Thanks. I don't feel 30 at all. I honestly look like I'm between 22-26.

I've had a eureka moment tonight. For a long time I've been wondering how to get a DX10 head onto this lightweight truetype that I've been using on my Harley (using a lighter truetype so as to avoid putting too much stress on the fragile Tamiya bike):
As you might be able to tell that's a NECA headsculpt above and although a very good low end sculpt it doesn't quite gel with my high end stuff - the DX10 head being a natural replacement.
So for ages I've been looking around at other lightweight bodies that could fit a DX10 head on them, with no success. It really does seem like the only body the DX10 head fits is the DX10 body. And I've just realised tonight, all I need is the upper torso sheath and internal neck adapter from a DX10. I was recently experimenting putting one of the upper torsos of an MMS117 body on top of the body of a smaller truetype to beef it up (which has become the new body for my movie poster T1) - I don't know why I didn't make the connection to my Harley figure until now.
But that's it, I'm finally going to have my Harley figure looking like a DX10 but having necessary lightness and added poseability. Of course its gonna mean spending more money though.
Got the body with the required DX10 upper torso muscle sheath and the head today but have encountered 2 snags. Firstly, I broke the damn handlebars off the Tamiya for what must be the third time since I got it. Those little stalks just weren't designed to take much pressure. I wish I had a better solution than just superglue. Each time you have to re-glue something the more difficult it gets. Didn't get to fix it before work so I'm feeling a bit nervous about that.
Secondly I need to find a way to get the head more firmly rooted. Without a firm rooting onto the body (not a sexual reference Australian freaks!) the head articulation is useless and the sculpt wants to look down permanently when the body is posed in a riding position. The reason I can't root the head onto the body properly is because the muscle sheath and the neck planted over a small truetype create too big a distance between the ball joint on the body and the neck adapter with head attached. So I need to figure that out.
All probably meaningless without pics. If you didn't read so be it.
Finally got round to swapping the DX10 clothes with the MMS. Thanks to vodoun who gave me the idea a few pages back.
^^ Pure win IMO. The DX10's leathers look much better on the MMS which is based on Arnie from early on in the movie, the cleaner looking leathers on the DX look great on Galleria Arnie. The more worn leathers which come with the MMS look better on the DX.

I love it. I mean I hate it, damn. Just look at that. They must have been out of time on this because I can't see how they could look at that and think it looks fine.
The bulkiness of that neck, the lack of muscle-sculpting detail, or any surface detail like painted veins or anything. Its just a big cylindrical trunk with the head plopped on top. Not to mention the gap under the ear, made worse if you tilt the head (y'know, the reason y'all want these ball-joints, for puppy dog head tilts)
Also that puffy Enterbay-esque silverback gorilla cranium should have been flattened a bit. (I'm working on that by the way, good result so far on a headsculpt I bought explicitly for experimentation)
