Lim Toys - 1/6 The Gunslinger (Outlaws of The West)

[chrisstbh]

Yes, the shotgun shells were supposed to go in there but we opted to put them in the bags to avoid any being lost, since they are so tiny and customs handle these packages without a care in a world we figured better safe than sorry. For the second batch we will add extra security for the smaller accessories with protective tape.

Thought as much, thanks!

Update for those who ordered through TNS, don't worry several brands are in contact with them and your stock is secured until they sort this issue out.

So, they have received the stock but they have to solve this problem first right? And then they’ll start shipping?

Sorry it happened, we knew due to the large quantity produced there would be some minor QC issues but this is a big oversight by the factory, you can contact Kit to get a replacement sorted out, same goes for anyone expiriencing this, contact your retailer if you find anything missing, make sure to specify which parts as well.

The rowels falling out are common, not a lot of pressure was applied when attaching them since the spurs are fragile, be careful when putting them back on.

I don't think I'll bother Kit for this. With the gun in the holster you'd never know. I've used three as 'holster stuffers', and still have an intact one spare.

Still no news from toy origins? Im trying to cancel my pre order to no luck and its too old for paypal to help out so on a scale of 1-10 how screwed am i?

All the problems occurred with the winter figure. It was just chance that the missing cylinder happened to be from this box too.

The toggles were a bit of a struggle even after removing the shirt, but the issue went from near impossible to possible!

After that it was the gloves. They don't stay on the pegs as securely as the bare hands, and while pulling the coat sleeves over them they repeatedly came loose. Best thing to have done was probably push them under the sleeves first, then attach them.

The gloved hands also don't work as easily with the Winchester. It just takes a little more effort to get the fingers through the lever safely.

However, no pain no gain! When he's assembled he looks pretty amazing.

The camera flash messes with the true colours. The figures look so much better to eye.

 

[Asta]

To get a truer picture I had to take photos from further back. So far back that you can see the colours, but barely see the figures.

 

[Asta]

Can you please show me how he looks when aiming the rifle?

I've settled on my summer Arthur pose, and I wouldn't risk trying it with the winter one because his gloves would inevitably fall off again.

Yeah I just checked my paypal and it still says paid. So hopefully it stays like that and they ship my figure out once they have it.

The winter camp.

And the summer gang:

@Asta how did you get the Deputy badge to stick on his chest? Mine only sticks to the little metal pieces on the suspenders.

There's a magnet in one of the bags. Put it inside his shirt and the badge will stick to it through the material.

Ah cheers, skimmed the instructions to the other stuff I was trying to do, if it was in there

Also one more before bed, switched him up a bit, too many choices…

Asta - phenomenal crew you’ve got there, I’m jealous! Love the Lando figure, I’ve been meaning to grab that figure.

It came up in conversation here, so I was forewarned.

It's the same system CC Toys and Master Team used to attach the torches to the backpack straps on The Last of Us figures.

I tried to see if I could deputise the winter Arthur, but it was hard getting the magnet into the right place under his coat. But at least it was easy to retrieve afterwards, as all it took was pushing a pair tweezers in to catch it. lol

Asta - phenomenal crew you’ve got there, I’m jealous! Love the Lando figure, I’ve been meaning to grab that figure.

Thanks, there's actually three Landos in that figure.

His head is from Sideshow's Lando Skiff Guard.

His shirt is from Sideshow's Cloud City Lando.

And his trousers are from the new HT Cloud City Lando.


When the HT arrived the old Sideshow was retired, but not before donating his trousers! I left him on a stand wondering what to do with him, and it was his shirt that actually gave me the idea. With the puffy cuffs it looked like it could be a pullover shirt of nineteenth century design.

As it happened the sleeves ended up covered by the jacket as I attempted to de-Lando him as much as possible.
