It's not that bad, it's just tedious. Little small loops and string.

If you move slow and lightly you will be fine.

Before I started I was feeling like do I want to embark on this haha, but once I started I felt like this is why I buy hot toys so I can make my adjustments and mods to make it my own.

Guys, if I wanted to DX my bane by buying additional parts, what would be a good set of stuff to pick up? I've got a Dent photo and have a trail master jacket on it's way. What else can people think of? I know he's not really one for accessories.

Getting nervous about removing the vest after seeing some recent posts. Is it really as difficult as some are saying?

The buckles around his belt are a pain. I had to use a combination of tweezer and a very tiny flathead screwdriver. The screwdriver to push the straps into the buckle, the tweezers to pull them out of the other side.

Those tight pants kill the whole figure.Shame on you HT. :slap

Pull the pants down to the point were the green web belt is exposed and it gives it the extra baggy look. I look at these figures like model kits so tweaking is always needed. I also added height by giving him the extended ankle Pegs.

Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

Do you have any info on where you got them from - they look pretty good!

Also wanted to ask you about the boots. I've ordered some now - but wondered what you used for the buckle on the strap that goes across the laces?
 
Re: Hot Toys – MMS183 - The Dark Knight Rises: Bane Collectible Figure

I got them off ebay.

The strap i made from a scrap piece of leather (not the smooth side) and the buckles were from some misc WW2 parts i had in my parts drawers.

I'll try to find you a link
