Hot Toys - MMS143 - Spider-Man 3 official specs and pics

Wahh, that comment made me so confused. Thought you meant that HT Jones was already out. What does "Indy loose" mean?

The prometheus body on Sideshow's Indy was notoriously loose jointed, to the point where he could barely stand up straight.

Barely stand up? you actually had one that could stand? My god, mine couldn't stand at all. he was like a rag-doll.

would anyone be interested in selling their extra wrist pegs that came with spider-man?

Yeah, PM me if you are. Left fist hand, too. Thanks for the assist, lerath

 

[lerath666]

LOL.

not sure if you're trying to beat me to the punch, sell me yours, or buy mine there.

you break one karamzzov?

Thanks, here's a few more -

Where'd you get the black stand? Looks like it holds Spidey up pretty well.

Yeah, first time ever with HT. Peg broke off in his fist while I was trying to remove it. I've contacted Sideshow about it, and hope they have spares that they will be willing to give me.

I always pop hands in normal hot water for a minute or so then gently pull them out.

I do that with socks and so far it's been pretty good.

NOM NOM NOM!!!!

That's an enterbay stand, you can find them loose on ebay.

I haven't needed to do this in a while, but looks like spidey's going to need it.

that, or i need to get lucky on my quest for set of pegs for each set of hands.

Correctimundo, just make sure you get the metal stand, not the cheesy plastic Enterbay stand.

I'm thinking about taking some flesh colored pegs and soaking them in red dye overnight and seeing if the color takes. Might just be easier to paint them though.

 

[lerath666]

I doubt it will. but if it does work, LMK.

 

[Crimsonbob]

You cant really see the pegs anway if you pull the sleeves down properly.

I think if you add acetone to the mix it makes it dye plastic. do a google search for "acetone dyeing transformers" and some threads will come up. all those sites are block at work so I can't get a link for you.

I'm really happy with this figure. I see small issues here and there but nothing that bothers me - it's a tricky costume because the simplicity makes it much easier to spot an error. I imagine most people will be able to find something that doesn't line up if they look long enough.

Yeah, I was thinking if acetone was used, it would make the plastic porous so the dye would take. It might make for a fun Saturday afternoon experiment.

I'll have mine tomorrow.
