Your figure is lookin great so far Sal. Wish I could help you on the body situation but Im not too educated when it comes to that.

Also I love the proton effect JRSly!

So what do you guys think of the finished elbow pads? I didn't want it too tight so that the joints could bend free and it wont rip the elastic off. I cut the tops and bottoms to give it the fraying look just like in the film. If this gets the approval from you guys then this will be my go ahead for the run.

Well, i cut a telephone line wire open and found various tiny colored wires and used them for a custom i did last year, and they looked cool. Hope this helped

I got some very quick feed back on this via GB fans of people wanting to see it tighter so I just did a little test. The glue I used is VERY strong so I made it much tighter and frankly, I like the look even more. Ill have some pics in the morning.

Agreed, the pads look AMAZING Astro. I'm definitely in for a full set of 4 (8 elbow pads). Can't wait to see what the tighter versions look like!

Finally got my Ray yesterday. For some odd reason, the brokerage firm responsible for shipping to Canada decided to declare a value of $85 per figure, not $60, landing me with a duty charge of just over $16. Considering that the post office usually doesn't charge any duty on items with a value of $60 or less, I was pretty upset about that.

I realize I'm pretty late to the game, but I want to get onboard with the whole upgrading thing. Has a consensus been reached on which body/head sculpt/accessories should be used to create the best, most screen-accurate figure?

i knw afew of you are using a hot toys,playhouse and even sticking with the mattel flight suits, but iwanted to know what dragon flight suits are like aswel? r they any good?

 

[Astro_zombie]

Thanks guys! I made them a little bit tighter and they hold up really well.

You can still get a full rang of motion with the elbows too. Ill make a post on how to order in the next few days and ill probably offer loose fit and tight fit.

Hot Toys? Playhouse? At the moment I wanted to stick with the mattel fs as I do not like the big zipper on dragon. Check monkeydepot they have a Dragon in stock. Where Can I see (and maybe even buy) a HT or PH?

yeah the one on monkey depot looks pretty cool. the zipper dont look that big to me in the pic of it so might be ok.

there were some playhouse ones on ebay last wk but sold out :-(
