Thats the team up ive been waiting for!! awesome pics
these 2 look really good together
I'm thinking about applying the epoxy putty onto the bottom part of the faceplate as well to make the black mouth slit thinner.
But for now I'm focusing on the eyes. I'm quite happy with it but once it dries a bit and I have another look at it, I might tweak it a tiny bit more.
Messed around with it for a hour. Was quite frustrating getting it right. It was too narrow here or there and was a hassle overall. It's a mod that I can't live without doing so it's worth the trouble.
I was thinking about providing a service of modding it for those who do want to have their faceplate modded.
I haven't heard anything from BBTS and I pre-ordered mine as soon as it went up on their site.
Some progress for tonight.
Sanded it down a bit to flatten it, diffused the eyes a bit more. Going to sand it down again tomorrow, prime it and then apply the first layer of Gold onto it.
Same here. Still waiting...
Great pics guys!!!
Has SS started shipping out the Regulars? I chatted with them yesterday and was told they still haven't heard from Hot Toys but hope to know more this week. Whether that was some standard message or not, I don't know.
damn...i am having a HORRIBLE run with QC on this one.
its my third now after getting two other duds. my first two also had this issue (leg refuses to allow the panels to sit flush on left leg), but this one also has paint chipped as well just to piss me off even more
hopefully SSC can just swap me a leg. the rest of the figure is fine and i would hate to return the whole thing just to open myself up to even more potential issues with the whole body.
its funny that i keep getting this one problem when nobody else seems to be reporting it. i must be the unluckiest person ever
Or its a byproduct of the way the swappable panels work, and nobody else cares?
its not a byproduct of how they work...not unless the left legs are intended to function as a teeter totter
the other sits completely fine.

UPS just delivered my IM MK VII!
Now I have to wait until I get home to open him up.
a little OCD; Don't take it back, its just how the leg panels work, I think there all gonna be like that and nobody has brought it up because it isn't noticible, it flows with the rest of the suit. what sucks is you trade in one without a paint chip for this one thats a bummer; Sorry man for your troubles
I'm hoping that with Sideshow shipping out regulars already, we should see him from BBTS either this week or next.
