The M79 presents a nightmare of continuity problems. The bandolier varies both in quantity of grenades and arrangement of remaining grenades as the movie heads toward its climax. At the end of the day the bandolier started with 11 rounds which somehow translated to firing 7 before running out of ammo.

Thats when its time for artistic freedom to come into play.

That could be why the Sideshow PF is the way it is. I've wondered why they sheaped out and didn't give a full ammount of grenades and let collectors make the choice of how many he wears, but, I just checked, the badolier has 11 slots and he comes with 6 grenades on it plus one he's loading, so he only comes with as many as we see used, they may have done that with intent as a subtle nod to this continuity issue. I can't imagine the grenades too costly to make so I figure there's some other reason to include so few.
 
It's been an evolution, but I'm finally happy with my Cyberdyne bash.

First bandolier, grenades too small and bandolier sucked.

Then properly scaled grenades.

Finally, properly scaled grenades spread out properly as well.

Guys, I really need your help.
To any of you who have got carrier bags for their custom T2 T-800s, could you pleeease be so kind as to take the approx measurements of the bag and link me where you got It from!

Im looking for a black carrier bag that will hold a box with these measurements -
Length = 65mm
Height = 15mm
Width = 25mm

It doesnt matter if the bag is about 20mm bigger all around...it would actually be preferred.

I bought this one a few days ago but its waaay too big at almost 150mm in length -

Im looking for about 100mm in length.
Can anyone please help?

The bag in your link was the 1st bag I bought for my T800 but COOmodels have now released a bag to go with there Gatling Gun & M79 so I definitely recommend you get that one.
 
Such am improvement! Only if those grenades looked more pointy and not so rounded like a d....h....

Looks perfect. How long did it take to resow the loops?

From what I can remember, it took me quite a long time when I did a similar job about a year ago.
It probably takes anywhere between 15-60 mins.
But the good thing is that I lose track of time when doing these things anyway, so it doesnt bother me.

Have the movie itself playing while doing it and you would've made all kinds of mistakes. :D

Took me a couple hours, was trying hard to to keep things equal and it was a _____ seeing black thread against black material.

I'll post shots later, I also painted two buckles silver and added them at the back to be truer to the film, not perfect, but better.
