Present Toys "Raider Jones" figure

[DeltaForceChung]

I see one for 36.00 currently on Ebay and it's not worth it. For that you can get a Worldbox body or a Coo. The Sculpt is nice but the knees and elbows are too loose.

Why try to dissuade him?

Let him experience and learn it for himself.

If he's happy with it, then so be it.

If he's not, then so be it.

I suppose that's just in my nature. I'd probaby try to stop someone from jumping off a bridge as well not knowing if they would die or not.

With that I guess it's for the best I don't bother, mainly because I rather not take it apart to build a new one up plus I hate when bodies have horrible articulation. Oh well saves me some money at least. Lol

As of late, I reached a plateau where if 1:6 collectors want to make poor choices resulting in lost $ . . . then let them.

They simply need to experience and learn it the hard way.

That’s the only way I learn

Considering that I have one flopping around right in front of me I had to give some freebee advice out. But no more!

And the vendors you buy from appreciate and thank you for your continued patronage.

Sure.

You post/say that now.

If something I buy unequivocally and utterly sucks, I'll post about it on my own accord.

If another collector posts inquiring about a certain offering I know to suck, but the collector is inclined to still buy it . . . then why bother?

If I wanted to buy a certain offering, I'll conduct my due diligence on it. If I still seek the perspectives of others, I'll ask. However, I'm not going to be presumptuous to give any indication I'm going to go my own way.

Don't care what anyone says, this sculpt is looking better and better. I'd like to see it with a proper hat.

You'll constantly undermine certain vendors and warn people to stay away from them (in this thread) but won't offer insight on a particular body from the actual figure that this thread was designed to discuss?

Cease doing that as well. There will always be new and old collectors who'll continue to get screwed over by those sketchy vendors regardless of cautions and warnings by others.

I finally reached THE milestone as a 1:6 collector within the 1:6 hobby.

I simply and unequivocally don't give a **** anymore.

I now have an aura of ease and attained clarity.

I put this dood on ignore. Can't take his nonsense anymore . He made a pretty crazy post on Kit's FB page. He sure impresses himself I guess.

You certainly seem like you give a ****. A lot of times. In multiple threads.

I use this simple heat gun for stiff figures. It's not some industrial device, it's just easier to me than a hair dryer since it has a focused end and only take a little bit to heat up. When I say a little, I mean like 8-10 seconds at a time. Used it plenty with zero issues, although I wouldn't blast it straight at a 1/6 headsculpt. Hands/limbs no problem.

Thank you!! I really appreciate it!! I’ll look into it more for sure! Has anyone tried repairing broken off pegs? Examples being ones for the hands. If so, what kind of super glue do you guys use? Loctite is decent and gorilla glue is so So IMHO. I would love to hear the community’s thoughts on this?? I was thinking of using JB Weld to hopefully have a more permanent/ stronger and more durable fix.

That seller on ebay is sure making a killing from the parted out pieces.

I still can't win me that nice leather jacket...
