1/6 Hot Toys - MMS - Star Wars Episode VII: Captain Phasma

[Mandible]

No, not yet but I'm gonna try it shortly. Mine is almost totally black.

Not good.

It's one of those things that once somebody pointed it out, I can't not see how bad it is.

If the removal works, she might go back on my order list.

 

[Newbieguy]

Got a full refund on mine....too many bad reviews and not one I really need in my display.

2 things,
Buy a micro fibre cloth to polish her eyes, massive improvement (in fact it helps all the troopers eyes)
The stand does not work for Phasma... At all.

Hey pal,

When u mentioned polish her eyes, are you referring to the black strip (that has been incorrectly painted) above Phasma visor?

Ernest

I think he was kidding. I don't think it'll be that long before Phasma arrives at SS...

No. I cancelled and got full refund.

No the eye piece itself. It comes out of the factory dull and unpolished, finger marked. Makes huge difference. The Line above her visor needs a cotton bud and a dab of remover.

did the remover take then black away while keeping the chrome? i would LOVE to see a photo of what you were able to do with it!

Thanks! It reminds me of the similar issue with FO Tie Pilot; when I first unbox if the head is full of fingerprints and "waterstain" kinda prints. Il

What kind of remover will you suggest? I will unbox mine tonight to see haha.

Interested to see how it looks. It is a great shame that the weathering was so severe.

 

[mirai_ernest]

Unbox mine today, limited articulation but it was quite easy to pose her in that signature pose.

Visor is okay just that as some pointed out the black strip above Phasma visors is probably due to too much weathering.

Temporarily squeezing Phasma with the peeps.

Captain Phasma from another angle.

knock-kneed Phasma looks good in your pictures. Congrats on getting her.

The angle of the legs looks really weird. Are they all like this?

 

[Cap'n Hands]

I hope not. I can overlook a lot but janky knees is my limit. Is there no way to swivel those legs out?

Let me try adjusting the legs later when I get back home.

This aside, anyone can recommend me black pen/marker coz my Phasma got some paint job problem, some part of the black colouring not even...

Phasma has those kind of legs. They bow out in real life. It's just the actresses' physical attributes. The figure captures that very well & looks great from that standpoint. There's a femininity there.

Got a notice from SS. Expected to ship 9/5.

 

[jki&Cri]

The legs are like this in all figures.
It is screen accurate but I don't like it. I tryied fixing it but nothing can be done without changing the legs all together.

Same here. Got an adjustment on my Deadpool and Rey+BB8 order. Getting real sick of these giant delays.

 

[OneSixthFanTex]

Got a notice from SS. Expected to ship 9/5.

Same here. Anyone know why such a delay with this one since it's already released in China? Two more months seems like quite the delay on figure that's been available for a while.

Slow boat.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Don't understand, are people making the black stripe blacker...?

When did she have a black stripe above her helmet...?
