Hot Toys - MMS 66 -AVP-R - Predator (Cleaner Kit version)

[Mudshark]

Can you add the other shoulder cannon to the cleaner version?

Absolutely. The mounting brackets on the armour are the same, so you only need to supply a hinge pin (plastic peg, etc.) to mount it. It's really a fairly simple procedure.

Cool. Looks like I'll be getting the cleaner version if I have some money leftover. Thanks a ton for the help guys

EDIT! OK I admit it's not a 'missing' item, but it's a 'difference', the netting suit also does up under the groin on the 'cleaner' version, I did hear that later regular 'Wolf's' also had this, but I can't confirm it.

yup, I have both Cleaver & V1 and I didn't have to tie the netting under the groin for either

dudes just got cleaner and this guy is a ^^^^^ to assemble, first off, that netting was a pain but not that bad, then the chest pack/armsling strap thingy broke on me which pissed right the ^^^^ off, and now the thigh armor piece straps came undone so now im trying to restring it through and its just being a ^^^^ to put back through. so far not looking so good. on a good note, the figure looks a hell of alot better in person . any help for the rest of the figure would be appreciated

Boiling water or a hair-dryer, just apply lots of heat, never ever attempt anything cold.

 

[Randysgut]

what about the arm sling thing that has all those sticky lazer things he uses in the movie.

oh the the woes of a novice first one is always the hardest

 

[Randysgut]

this isnt funny man! help me, no no i mean it is hard and my splitting headache over the harness breaking is gone, because i think i can fix it. just the stability of the legs...they arent so stable. i dunno someone give me some pointers

 

[Jaycepticon]

I put that piece on after I put on his shoulder cannons and before I put on his head and forearms. Just fold the shoulder cannons down to get it over them. It's pretty easy, did you put on all his limbs before you put the bandolier on over him?

I suggest small tweezers to thread through the thigh armor..tweezers are the best for Hot Toys Military as well..if you have to thread pouches on to armor.

 

[Randysgut]

yea all i have to put on is the thigh pads, which un did themselves so yes ill probably have to use the tweezers. and i still have to put on the strap that has his lazers. other than that, hes complete. and looks a hell of a lot better than the pics hot toys posted IMO

If you have to re-glue the strap with the lasers or any other strap you might want to get some Bondini super glue. This ,by far, is the best glue to use on this type of stuff IMO. I've had a few broken spear tips on my Wolfs, used this glue & never had problems since. I've also used it on the leg armor straps. Good as new!!!

Just type in Bondini on ebay & you'll find it. There's even a Bondini glue gel in case you need more work time instead of near instant glueing.

yeah, tweezers, blow dryer and/or boiling water are the tools you need.

two quick photoss of my mix up of the cleaner and regular with the cannon mod and repainted cannons ( the repainted parts look brighter on the photos than they are ).

 

[Reinhardt]

nice job Tay!!! i always found it annoying though that you can never get both cannons to be centered on his head though.

 

[uscmhicks]

Thanks !. yeah , its irritating about the cannons. Before though with the way I had him dislayed I couldn't even see them .

Do you know which one to get? There's a guy on Ebay with four different kinds...
