[DeadLeaves]

check this out, push those two buttons down, although I don't think it makes much difference if you do:

^thanks for that. :]
it moves with clanking ratchet noise.lolz

 

[krafter]

^i notice the square panel, in front and the back can be pressed. is there a locking mechanism here or just go ahead and pull/push away?
this is getting nerve wracking.lolz

Those are bump stops in the movie when shutting down and rapid spring loaded pushers when turning on. It's a very minor detail that I love they included in the model even if it can't actually function like in the film. I hope I explained that in a way you can understand if not just let me know and I'll try to add more detail.

They look really nice!

With a little weathering they would fantastic. Great work!

 

[krafter]

Yeah you read my mind I can't wait to weather it, but I must hold off till all of them have been replace to take clean pictures. Here is another picture just for you!

Great work so far dude, can't wait to see it when it's finished!

To be honest, the NECA ED is not far off being a miniaturised Hot Toys figure, it even has all the same sound clips.

Superior sound clips for that matter - actually taken directly from the movie. HT even managed to screw up the mechanical sounds.

Dude, did you deepen the mouth too?

Looks great with those screws, man.

 

[krafter]

Yes I did thank you. I just really dislike that they made such a repeated mistake on the mouth in both V1, and v2. In V2 it has a deeper hole but they pushed the speaker with the mouth all the way forward, in a sad attempt to get more of the bad sound out. They could not simply take a clip of sound directly from the movie, I mean we all here could do a better job on the sound. And heads up guys in my V2 ALL the rubber has started to crack, so I added the rubber lube but some damage is already done.

I thought if it had started to crack not to use the lube but preserve it with Modge Podge?

And people wonder why I think the gimmicks are rubbish.

I've caved and pulled the trigger on this from CollectiblesDirect for £270 shipped. I haven't long had the MMS202 which I'm smitten with. I've also preordered the BD/Alex Murphy 2-pack for £300 shipped which is a very good price, also from CollectiblesDirect. Let's hope the rubber holds up.

 

[user 46673]

I think you bought the last one!

 

[The_Seeker]

I think you bought the last one!

I've asked Lee from CollectiblesDirect if it can be cancelled. £270 is too much for me at the mo. I've bought a few figures of late but this one's gonna have to wait I'm afraid, if I even get it at all. This hobby is getting too expensive.

Anyone know how to safely detach the arm again?

 

[EndoSickness]

I disassembled ED when I returned him to my retailer.
Just grab him as good as you can, start pulling gently and try to apply more and more power.
But gently also...

Has this guy sold out yet?
