Close your eyes and pull at them

That's what I did, they came off in one piece

Hahaha, thanks for the advice. i've posted this before but its just really nerve wracking having to basically break this figure. Thanks for the info though dude. Wish me luck.

PS If i do mess this up i'll be very upset.

Also, those are some AWESOME pics vodoun. Very nice.

I take no responsibility for any damage you may cause

But seriously though, nerve racking, but it works - that's how everyone i've asked has done it!

You realise if it breaks you'll legally owe me a new OC batman? Its cool, just done it, looks a million times better. Was worried when just the triangle tabs came off as i thought the whole peg type thing it seems attached to was gonna come out. But it worked so i guess its supposed to break off. Was probably the single most frightening few moments of my Hot Toys collecting life. along with assembling my P2 elder.

Its funny had the same feeling with the TDK cape, all the pictures made it look awesome but its not until you get it yourself you really realise how much better it looks with these capes.

I've never had any problems as I let Deak take care of this for me for years and he treats everything like Gremlins, no KFC either so no trans fats.

A bit late but for anyone else who's worried about doing it, you can also use a very sharp craft blade and slowly make the holes in the original cape wider until you're able to work the cape off over the top of the clip. It means having to make additional holes in lforigno's cape, but if you need the peace of mind of not breaking the clip, it can be done.

damn, folks around here just keep making it harder and harder to resist getting one of those capes

Still, if people are worried about damaging the original figure in the first place, wouldn't this just be swapping damaged clips for a damaged cape? I say grow some hair on your balls gents, break those clips and then at least they'll be in the right position when you fix them to the cowl.

I wish I had hairy balls.

Yeah but it's hard to tell the cape is damaged. Attached is a picture of mine.

Very nice pic 5/5 10/10

Alight, that leaves me with my last and only excuse - money! I'm going to be a tightass about it and get my girl to stitch one up for me when she has some leave from work. She's handy with a needle and thread, and has been interested in getting a new sewing machine for a while now.... ah yes, I can feel a cunning plan coming on.

lovely work vodoun, personally I think the custom capes look too velvety, I know they hang a lot better. But great pics none the less.

 

[Voorhees27]

In 4 years of collecting there are only 2 pieces (and i've bought and sold a ton) that I ever regretted selling. This is one of them

I don't know which material lance was using while my cape was made, but it's still my favorite of the materials he's used thus far.
