Yeah, the button size is the only issue I find with superglue, getting the button on but not getting it stuck to your finger or your finger stuck to the shirt, and it's too fine a button for tweezers.

Yup. I used a very tiny tweezers and placed the button properly ...but then I tried to do some pressure with my finger and the crappy button stuck on my finger

In the second round, I did pressure directly and carefully with the tweezers

That is how mine is posed at the moment. Amazing figure...

tuesday for me

I will say this about the paint apps. Its good but its a touch grey. It lacks the suttle color variations that the John Connor has. It has that ash color tones of Asians and is missing the patches of paleness and rose around the cheeks and eyes. The Connor head is the best paint job of my collection.

 

[MaulFan]

Interesting comparison, as I find his skin paint apps to be equal and the same as Connor's but for Connor having the addition of dirt on his face.

Just got Mine yesterday from Alexei, along with the DX Joker. Logan is an amazing figure. It's been said before, but the photos just don't do it justice.
I found a local place that can manufacture custom acrylic Display Cases for a great price. I think I'll leave mine boxed till I can pick up some proper protection.

I'm really tempted to pick up a bike for him.

I just received mine. It looks great. I have not removed the jacket and shirt yet. Is it difficult for anyone else to move the arms at the elbow joint? Is it supposed to be stiff?

Weird, I used superglue to fix my button and the button's stuck on fine, the shirt isn't ruined, but definitely use what you feel is safest.

I had this prolem with one of Logan's buttons but fixed quickly with superglue and worked fine.

I don't know. Did you guys use the more gel-like superglue like wookster recommended? I know some are really wet and others much thicker.

Notdolls just mentioned a few posts back that the wet one soaked right into the shirt material and stained it. I guess as long as it's a think glue it shouldn't soak into the material.

The elbows especially and arms in generally don't move very much in the jacket, and depending on the pose, you'll have to adjust the jacket after you move the arms to make it look right again. He looks sharp fully dressed but he's not the most posable, the jacket is pretty rigid material and pretty skin tight on him.

Not sure, I actually noticed mine turned into a wet spot on the shirt when I applied it, I was worried about a stain and also the button not even sticking, often the super glue I use can leave a white stain on hard materials, but the shirt didn't stain at all and the button's well in place.

Yeah they are really stiff. I took the jacket and shirt off before I did any posing so I could see how the arms worked.

Another quick pic.

 

[ronskimomo]

Thanks for the info. I have him in a great pose now. I will give it a week or two before I take off the jacket and try another pose.

I just notice that some of the brown from the jacket has transferred to the white wife beater. I took a paper towel and rubbed "leather" part of the inside of the jacket and it transfers. I haven't tried cleaning the shirt off but just giving people a heads up.

Just got mine. Great figure! Now that I see it in person, I agree that this new muscle body is better than the original. The only thing that's missing is a set of hands with bone claws.

I have to say I wasn't to impressed with the package/box. I'm getting used to HT's unique box designs. The actual artwork/imagery is OK on this particular box, but the "shoe box" design is rather boring.

Just got mine today - love it but not impressed with the way the colour rubs off from the jacket. The upper shoulders are already a bit stained from the brief time I had the jacket on without the shirt, and some of the brown colour has also rubbed off on the wife beater. I'd suggest being really careful with putting the jacket on without the shirt underneath - it looks like some people have been able to do it with no problems, but I literally put the jacket on over the wife beater, posed it, and then removed the jacket to find stains on the rubber part of the body.
