mine arrived in Australia just now.
Fedex guy has just been.
the shipper is saturated in water and of course,with it so wet,it has seeped thru to the outer box.
Of course when water and colour mix then u get runny colours.
The white outer paper that is wrapped around the inside of the box is all red and blue now.
Had to wipe the box down so there wont be any mildew.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

figure etc is perfect still...box will be ok,just a pain in the @55!!
 
I did. But I can't seem to get the buckle apart. It's hard to pry apart. Any tips? Don't want to end up breaking it.

I was having trouble separating the pieces of the buckle too.

Instead of undoing the buckle...I unwrapped the belt material from the side of the buckle...completed my belt mod...and then glued the fabric back together on the side of the buckle.

If you're gonna try it this way, my only suggestion would be to unwrap the material slowly because there is already adhesive holding the belt together around the metal bar of the buckle. The material the belt buckle definately seems like it could be torn if too much pressue is applied.

The metal wont break so go ahead and go at it hard lol. Just be careful not to twist and pull the leather to much.

This way works too and you'll have to take the buckles off the belt anyway to get it through the loops. You will have to re-glue the leather back on the buckles when you're done though so be careful not to get it on the pants!

I always fail at that :monkey4
 
I'm stuck! I'm trying to put in the long foot pegs in but I can't get the short foot peg out of his boot...any suggestions?
 
Just recevied mine today and this figure rocks. the cut and sew is a thing of art, no issues with mine yet, but I never bothered to put the handgun in the holster, just put it in his hand to avoid that issue. I was going to hold out for the rescue version but I'm glad I did not. This is the most iconic version of the captain.
 
I got the Jack yesterday and the Capt A just now! i'm excited, thriled, nervous and I know know I can never go back! I can't express how amazing these figures are!
 
I don't know if I agree with that. I've had several knee breakages on my TrueTypes. Admittedly, they were all a bit older (2-3 years old or so), but still. I've had fewer issues with the Pros in terms of breakage. But you do get tight joints with the TrueTypes.
