1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 320 - Star Wars Ep.VII - Kylo Ren

Will it be possible for Poe's pilot helmet (Black Series) to fit on Rey's head?

I know it's not the exact same helmet but I thought the scene from TFA when Rey puts on the oversized helmet during her meal was adorable. One of my favorite smaller moments of the movie.

It'd be nice to recreate that scene once with Rey.

No. The helmets are not hollow inside, but have metal that holds the stands. This may can be removed, but doesn't look like an easy job.

So what's the deal with the scratched bases?

Mine got a third of the base with the scratched "pattern"

For those who have been asking about the Water treatment...I put together a thread for step by step instructions to help people feel more at ease doing it..

Hope it helps....I made a world of difference to my Kylo.

THE WATER TREATMENT METHOD

I might have to change the pose on mine! I really don't like displaying him with that stupid clear red plastic for a blade. I think it makes them look tacky. Yeah it looks cool when it's lit, but you can't permanently have it lit.

I agree that the plastic lightsabers seem to cheapen these figures and having them lit up all the time is not a realistic option. Though that unstable blade is one of my favorite parts of the character in the movie. I don't think I can resist displaying him without it.

I was contemplating this also.

For a $200+ detailed figure, having it wield an unlit lightsaber kind of does give a feeling that it cheapens it a bit. I mean I suppose it conveys the effect well enough, but still. And as mentioned, having it permanently lit simply isn't realistic.

However, as also mentioned I somewhat do feel like not having Kylo posed with his saber is sort of blasphemous being that his saber design is one of the many unique things about him.

Soon I wasn't feeling the shaw keeping riding up against his neck after the water treatment so I decided to give him a big water treatment. I soaked him, maybe longer than I should've been. But I think I fixed the issue. I also soaked the hood heavenly

I think kylo ren is a refreshing release in the fact that it's almost perfect.

Removing the hood from the outfit gives you more look options and I recommend doing that but it's also not a necessary mod like the ones needed for say Chewie or Vader etc.

And his robes look a little bad out of the box but with some steaming they look great.

The figure is extremely accurate in details and build, no complaints at all from me.

Of course he should have had a driver portrait but if you look past that tore having a near perfect figure, I honestly can't think of another hot toys Star Wars release with the exception of maybe stormtrooper or bespin Luke that you can actually say that about.

My only gripe and I hear some don't have this issue, the lifhtsaber is pretty unlit near the top when lit. Does putting fresh batteries in fix that issue? I heard that mentioned on the form pages back

Yup. Replace the batteries if you feel the lit saber looks faint

Can codes and RPs be used on the same order?! If so I've missed out...

 

[Rudimus]

Nope one or the other. You'll like this figure almost guaranteed. I thought he was going to be boring, but it's one of the most fun figures all around.

In hand Kylo is a lot cooler than I thought...

I'm sure in the movie the back of the robe had a slit down the middle same as it does at the front, but hot toys have left the back as one big piece?

Anyone?

 

[pixletwin]

Anyone?

Can you locate a screen shot from the movie?

 

[guyver1]

Yeah because of the back it is one piece connected to the two snaps that connect his belt so it's impossible to get the back robes completely flat or laying down but a severe water treatment helped me a lot

I've been trying!

It's hard most back shots of him in the film were either dark or more panned up to the back of the shaw. I guess Abrams thought since it's all black and robes there was no need to film his back robes that much.

Even unmasked in the snow they basically filmed the back of Kylo waist up about 92% of the time

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

I'm sure its been posted but is there a tutorial on removing the hood and cloak for a water treatment?

 

[TonTon]

Pretty sure it was more around 88%. I'll have to rewatch.

What's the question exactly? Whether the robes in the lower half should be connected in the back or split down the middle the way they are in the front? Anyone know how other figures have it?

Water treatment is looking really sharp by the way, guyver. Gotta get to that at some point.

This shot make it look like one piece or 3.
