Hot Toys AVP R ALIEN - Worth Getting??

[FACEBOX]

LOL 2 left feet.

As for my "good fortune"... a little glue here an there seems to solve most of the problems.

 

[darkfaerytales]

Yeah, that really sucks.
I know how you feel too.

My breakage issues:

• AVP ALIEN- glue coming undone at the seams
• Hudson-strap needed gluing, and sewing
• Drake-smartgun handle arrived broken
• AVP Brown alien- glue coming undone
• Power Loader-silver parts from the black tubes-glue coming undone
• ALIENS Warrior Alien- ankle and hip issues. Also, the paint looks like it wants to peel

• Predalien- the mandibles wont stay open on the left side
• Wolf-spear arrived broken and mask won't stay on
• BD P2-chest armor at the back won't stay closed
• Robocop3-flamethrower tip arrived broken & jet-pack "arm-clamp" also

The only ones without any issues are APONE, HICKS, VAZ, AVP:R Alien, and the Endoskeleton.

yah brother thank you for the support, believe me now i'm felling better , i'm just thinking that i'm an unlucky one , now i have begin to understand that's a normal routine of issues who any collector can encounter when your collection start to grow in size


anyway mine was only a brief list of issues i haven't insert the paint errors and the mess with paint app sometimes can there be , like for exemple when the dread ring paint is also out on the dreadlocks

wow i haven't too any issues with vaz apone and other marines

this is strange i have to believe that all the old stuff is better delevoped and much solid, all the figures i have heard problem are all stuff of the last 18 mounths

for exemple i haven't had any issues with grid, all my marines, and chopper, and i have also the t 800 who i think it's the first film figure ht had produced, it's solid like a rock...

umm i still have to assemple my PA and my P2 BD , i will let you know...

Just got my brand new AVPR Alien today wahoo!

However Iam having trouble putting on the leg and arm. I dont want to put too much pressure on after accidents with the Aliens Warriors..but is that whats needed here?

Any tricks or hints anyone?

Holy thread revival Batman !!! Use a hairdryer.

 

[EndIessRAlN]

Yea use a hairdryer. It should help. It's not as bad as the Dog Alien. The one I got snapped on pretty easily.

 

[neoshady]

Haha somethings going to snap tonight! Iam just placed some dishwashing liquid to see if that helps.
