I have the HT Lost Predator coming to me this week, and I know there is some assembly. I remember watching this youtube video of a guy putting it together and it seemed like a pain. Does anyone have any tips on how to assemble it smoothly without breaking any parts? Thanks!

Blowdryer! An assembler and disassembler's best friend.

Also handy to have some duct tape, surgical tubing, a flint and some tinder, and a stapler within arm's reach.

The gospel of the blowdryer has finally been heard and passed on. My work here is done. I leave you now to join the customizing gods in 1/6 scale heaven.
Oh wait, I can't leave yet, I don't yet have 1/6 RoboCain. Guess I'll be around a while longer.
If you live in the L.A. area I'd be happy to put your Lost together for you. I love putting figures together. I won't miss it though if Hot Toys continues the trend of pre-assembled goodness.

I thought the final tool was the baseball bat you take to it when it breaks for the tenth time during assembly.

Oh God Robocain!!! That's a never. I've been waiting for that piece for years. If you're waiting for that one, you'll be waiting a looooong time. Which is good. Because we like your company Surfer. Well I do. Back off dammit he's a cool guy no matter what other people say!

The blow dryer is for the head. Dude, I'll see if I can get my vid up again. But if I do, you'll have to be prepared for my antics, mass use of profanity. It was all just really to anger people who are like "dude, why you use cuss words? They make you sound dumb." It was for fun.

i'd really appreciate that, thank you!

The blow dryer is good for any part you have a problem with. It softens up the rubber and plastic parts making it easier to assemble while at the same time decreases the chances of damaging parts during assembly. Just have it handy. But in all honesty, I've never used a blow dryer during any of my assemblies. Only used it a few times to take preds apart. Good luck. And pick yourself up a neck collar from wolf predator or predator 2 from ebay. It looks way better when you put it on lost pred because he doesn't come with one.

I wonder why he never come with one? Did he not wear one in the film.

He doesn't have one in the movie. They just never anticipated a Hot Toys figure with such a retarded looking neck I guess.
