Medicom Darth Maul

[r3dPyramid]

I am a little worried because the seller didn't know whether it was the original or the re release. I've had to swap bodies on two medicom figures due to crumbling/breakage. I hope that this doesn't occur with Mr. Maul...

I hope it's the new one, buddy. If it is, body swap is just optional. I have the 2.0 and I find the body sturdy enough, though like jedijim said, a bit on the skinny side. A little futzing on the robe can make him look thicker, though

Here's my Medi Darth Maul 2.0 on my Sci-Fi shelf think even the pencil neck issue can be addressed with futzing

The twin suns on Tatooine are very bright.

You are welcome sir.

 

[r3dPyramid]

He will be here tomorrow. Fingers crossed that he's version 2.

 

[r3dPyramid]

Alas, version 1...
I was posing the upper body and, his right leg just fell off! Why did medicom use such cheap bodies?! Anywho, just used super glue and even though now his leg doesn't move, I still got him in the pose I wanted.

That sucks rib. You can always do a body swap on him if you wanted to be able to pose more than one look. I've got several of the newer medicom bodies that are more durable that might be compatible with the old version 1 maul. Let me know.

Everything should swap over perfectly, although the wrist pegs will have to be shaved down.

The older Medicom wrist pegs are fatter than the newer ones.

 

[jedijim3002]

Yes. You are correct sir.

Here's a few pics of my broke (soon to be fixed) "Medi Maul."

 

[jedijim3002]

Make sure to post some pics of the ported maul rib.

 

[r3dPyramid]

ported body.

 

[jedijim3002]

Looks good bro. Did you try the paper in the neck joint trick or the hot glue?

 

[r3dPyramid]

No, not yet. The way I've got the hood positioned is keeping his head from moving.

 

[jedijim3002]

Cool. How do you like the body? Sturdy enough?

 

[r3dPyramid]

Yeah, it's good. I've had to buy brand new ones in the past for Boba and Jango. It feels like the newer sturdier bodies.

 

[OSCORP]

Too bad you got the version 1 Maul instead of the new one.

 

[jedijim3002]

A much better price though I'm sure.

 

[r3dPyramid]

I wish I had just bought the version 2... 20 dollars more.
