Medicom/Enterbay ROTJ Han

[cking]

Thanks man,

I think you'll be thrilled with the results if you put one of these together.

For the neck, you can either remove the short rubbery tube section from the inside of the Enterbay head or alternatively, you could reduce the size of the ball from the TT neck so that it fits inside the Enterbay head socket.

jedijim suggested that the Enterbay head socket could be filled with hot glue (if you remove the rubbery tube section) and then you just push it down onto the TT neck ball (this creates a "new" socket which fits the TT neck ball).

I chose not to use rubber chest piece because the exposed neck joint is pretty much hidden by the shirt if you adjust the collar a bit so it closes a bit tighter.

Good luck with it and post some pics when you've done it.

This is one of the best looking Han figures I've seen PERIOD! I just ordered the Enterbay Han specifically to try resurrecting Sideshow's ESB figure by creating a similar mash-up, but your results look better than what I imagined. Really nice work!

Was attaching the Enterbay head to the TT neck simply a matter of removing this insert? Is it like a short rubbery tube section glued inside the head?

Thanks for the pointers, Chris. I was thinking of getting a pointy BBI neck peg to replace the larger ball-shaped peg on the TT, but your solution sounds less complicated.

I'm also gonna try bleaching that shirt out since yours looks great. It's just gonna be awhile until my Han gets here since I chose the cheaper SAL delivery.

It was pretty tough to get the Enterbay neck socket out so your BBI neck peg may actually be less stressful! (I nearly stabbed myself several types with the pointed tool that I used to get the socket out of the head).

I had to bleach the shirt about 6 separate times before it went white. The first 3 or 4 times, it actually turned into a bright orange color! Really weird. I thought I'd screwed it up but luckily, after a few more bleaching treatments, it started to go white. The only thing I'd say is that the tiny stitching has remained a light brown color and didn't turn as white as the rest of the shirt. It's not too distracting but I'm wondering whether RIT color removal would actually change the color of the stitching too.

I ordered a Han Solo on amazon from green pastures on June 20 and still haven't received it. Has anyone ever purchased anything from them?

i did but they refunded me the money even after marking it shipped they noticed they actually didnt have any left...expect the same

 

[mattdorris]

Man I hope not. I sent them a message a few days after them marked as shipped and customer service told me it shipped 6/22 and I should get it in 7-21 days so I'm still waiting. Hopefully if it wasn't in stock they would tell me by now.
