I pulled at the seams and the glue was very weak, everything separated clean. Wasnt hard, i just had to be gentle and patient.

Now would be an opportune moment for you to purchase one of the blue under suits from the Jor-El Man Of Steel figure and glue the parts back onto that under suit

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

i was thinking about it but the neck doesnt come up high enough. im going to see what a new body will do for now and im not going to glue the suit together just yet. i dont want to trim out all the suit spots and find out after that you can see through it near the neck area and im not going to leave any simulated material panels in either.

member crazybones did it and it looked great

I have one in my watch list, It $80 though. I saw his but not complete with gear on. He showed it without it. I think i remember it looking good. Well see when i wanna drop that money. Im also not in a big rush to get this one done. I wish i could get the suit without the body.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

Yeah it's bogus, was just a thought bro while you had it all taken apart!

He just sold another for 300. And just put another up starting at 99 cents.

I wonder if he is getting these really cheap...
Or taking a loss on them...
Or what...

 

[Frank Jaeger]

i can't imagine anyone buying multiples of an item just to make a loss on them

 

[PermaG]

Me either, but that is at least that I know of for 300 or less.

Same here i dont get it, ebay fees are crazy so not only are they going for cheap but he is taking a hit on fees. Oh well, i got mine for cheap just cancelled with sideshow this morning.

I got big bosss olive shirt in today, he looks perfect! (Minus having no head) just waiting for his cigar and the body is 100%.

I also got my olive drab old snake rah in today. Not sure if i want to keep him in the box or display him. Also got cigs and a mgrr keychain in too.

There's some minor in it, and remember the weight of that item.

Looking good man! Olive shirt with black tie makes the figure pop way more!

I recently done me a MGS3 BDU Snake

Just waiting on the final bits to come in but here he is so far

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Man thats looking great! I cant wait til hes done! What head sculpt are you going to use? Im going to do one soon too.

Im way into doing customs now. Im going to make a couple more mgs4 ones first. I have a female character im going to start, im not naming any names at this point in time. I think im going to work on solid snake saga characters for a while and accrue parts for big boss ones. I wish that the peacewalker and mgsv custom stuff would come through soon. I cant find any metal boss bdu figures around at all either.

Just got word that my heads arrived in petes area but theyre held up by a hefty customs fee. I dread to find out what the cost is but i guess ill have to just pay it because i dont wanna not finish my newest figures. Im so bummed.........

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I wasn't planning on doing him but the clothing set came up on the UK ebay for like £17, it would have been a crime not to buy them

I had to go buy all the bits off toy anxiety but I ran out of money before I could get the head I'm just gonna use the HT one I reckon. I didn't get the radio thing on the belt either, the one that goes on the harness comes with the HS. I did use the vest from the ht figure, a spare one I had and the sleeves from a metal boss and I have to metal boss hands coming but without the glove flares. I'd like a medi undersuit ideally but not really In a rush as I doubt there are many people trying to get rid of one

Man that's blows how much did you declare the value as?

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

$200, i guess i fd up as its my first dealing out there. He said its 33£ which is about $50. Now i have $240 worth of heads (4), getting $190 worth of paint, i paid $14 to ship, and now i have to pay $50 in customs fees. This is holy **** worth of **** expensive now. Good thing its coming over time i guess. Thats not including what i have into all the bodies. Man i love/hate this hobby.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

Yeah man you gotta mark that **** low if you want to avoid paying fees unfortunately.

I've had to suck up and mark my MGS1 Snake stuff from geewhiz as like $20 and a gift to avoid paying like, no joke an extra £70 with the contents of the box... it's upsetting

 

[WellCQCaboutthat]

Yeah i though declaring the value would cover me on insurance if they got lost. Im not doing that again. F that!
