Hot Toys- RE5 Jill Valentine (battle suit) spec + pics

[Viper2005]

The people that posted pics with the figures inside a glass display case have you encountered this annoying rattle because of the glass floor for a particular level is not sitting flush with the rest of the corners. If you were to lay a glass panel on a level you look at each of the four corners that makes contact with the clear rubber plastic mounts I have one corner that's not resting on that clear plastic mount there's a gap I can push my finger down on that corner it would tilt down and pop back up when I let go. It's annoying when I walk near by the case you can hear it rattle/vibrate.

I might have to just stuff something in there to make the gap go away but hopefully it won't stick out like a sore thumb.

I have that problem with one of my detolf shelves where one corner isn't in contact with the bar. I placed some clear Rubber Cement (or you can use clear Shoe Goo) on the corner to build up the contact and let it dry. Works great, now I have 4 point contact and its mostly invisible too!

So....Uh....When's there gonna be a recall for those coats.

My Jill arrived from SS yesterday & man that thing should be called Jill Valentine: Battle Coat Version; because that's what I had to do with it to get that thing on. It was absolutely ridiculous. Even after it's it on it looks too tight & doesn't flow right. But I'll be damned if I'm going to try & take that thing off anytime soon. The whole time I felt like I was going to rip the battle suit.

My feeling is that they tailored the coat for the bare body & not taking the suit into account.

Anybody have any tips on getting that coat on & off?

Once you get it on, count your blessings that nothing got damaged, and never take it off again

That is no joke. I might try to find a second suit & cloak just in case the worst happens. It sucks because I had been reading everybody's issues & I just wanted to give it a chance in hand. Needless to say I'm disappointed. I really don't want to be, but I am.

You know, even though i made a post when i initially got it about the coat being really hard it came off super easy

 

[Jill Sandwitch]

hehe Jill looks like she's stoned in those pics.

I'm very glad I didn;t try to put her cloak on. LOL It seem very difficult.

is it really that hard to put on ? thats was my plan to display her like that .

 

[Project_A]

It is! LOL I'm too afraid to even try [which I did.] It's just to small. I won't risk it. LOL

 

[Solidus]

I might get flamed for saying this, but I actually like Jill's look without her cloak. I'll try to find a small stand so that I can display the cloak and mask next to her. But for now, I'm putting Jill next to my Medicom Old Snake.... kinky

Yeah, I need more Resident Evil figures .

 

[Project_A]

Take a picture! Hahaha Nah, I agree, I like her without the cloak.

 

[nemenforcer]

This figure is perfect without the cloak...but that cloak is a nice addition to display seperately.

You have no idea.

Okay here are some pics that I finally got around to uploading. I'm not the greatest photo taker.

Arriving home after picking it up from CSC and watching the NBA finals game

I really like this photo and the color differences especially claire's bright red

Here is Jill in her mercenaries character select pose. I'm digging how I was able to get the sniper rifle on her back.

Wesker *you see me?*

Wesker *I'm the man with the plan. Hydra spam...BAM manjis go flying*

I received MWesker first about a year ago but I opened both when Jill arrived. I'm digging MWesker more than Jill to be honest. Jill's lack of range of motion puts a damper on trying out different poses that I try to recreate from the game.

Question am I suppose to remove the clear plastic wrap around Jill's torso that's underneath the suit?

Fixed the annoying corner rattle in my display case by sticking a small piece of clear bubble wrap I had laying around.

Those plastics are probably there to prevent staining in that area.

I'm glad HT added the cloak and mask to give people the option to display her with it but I personally was planning to display her without it the majority of the time and considering how much of a pain you guys are saying it to put it on, I don't think I'll be displaying her with it on anytime soon.

 

[nekoman]

I just got mine also and the cloak seems almost impossible to fit "easily". I may have to mod it to fit "easier" lol. Anyways here's some pics I took with me iPhone

 

[Darck]

No one have tried to display BS Jill throwing her cloak ?
