1/6 Hot Toys - Infinity War - Thanos

[Yondu_toys]

the plastic shirt is so high you can see his chest through the gap. heating it up and pressing down is the easiest remedy.

The way I did it, you can't see the figure underneath. But I did the extreme way and cut slits to close all gaps showing what's under. I will do the heat method for the fabric around his shoulders though.

I got my thanos today from pop-culture zone. As excited I am to get him I was a little teased by the box they used to box it up in. As much as I wanted him a mark 47 (for the price) would’ve been a lot nicer.View attachment 455737

Nice to see PCZ is shipping him out now and still providing double boxing...even for the big boys. I would have been receiving this as well, but I decided to switch my pre-order to Armor Thanos.

Just received mine from PCZ. Shoulder gaps notwithstanding, I'm extremely happy with this purchase. I can see now that my joint slot elongation idea wouldn't work, mainly because the ball "axle" doesn't even travel the full arc length of the slot. I was leaning toward your fix, but gave the heat method a try first. Looks pretty good.

It's all about putting useful information out. Glad you finally got it and enjoying him! He's a great figure.

Thanks! I actually heated up the shoulders, chest, upper back and even his lower back and abdomen areas a bit too. On mine it seemed that the waist area was restricting downward travel somewhat as well, so while pushing down on the shoulders I was also pulling down some on the sides/back of his tunic. Thanks to your work, I decided I could be slightly more aggressive, figuring the worst that might happen is I'd loosen some glue.

So how does Vision's tiny mind stone become that yuge center piece on the gauntlet?

Thanos digs his hand into Vision's head to get the stone. So the stone is protruding out of his forehead with most of the stone buried within Vision's head.

That's a great shot!

Also I can see why people want to mod the shirt so much now, it looks like it's floating around his entire body.
