Thnxs Emarae for the tip about the body, for the price it seems worth a lot, one ttm 21 body is triple of the price..
If the quality is good and the body proportions is the same, this certanly will be the route i ll take.
It doesnt exist blu tack here in Brazil, but i can seek o e similar product here. When you use ataching the head for example, the head keep moving?
You just stuck the product into the head and attach it directly to the neck without use those neck ball peg?
Sorry all those questions :monkey3

Yeah, the body proportions and all are pretty much the same! So save yourself some money and just use this body. ;)

As for the blue tack stuff, it goes by different names... The one I use is called HandiTak and it's a yellow color. There's Uhu tac that's a white color, Scotch makes something called Adhesive Putty,... It's almost like chewing gum, but not as sticky and is easier to remove and reapply. Just put a little to the neck and ball peg and you will be good!
 
There was just no way I wasn't going to use this DX exclusive piece.

Great photos.:clap

Just cut the well out of a true type foot and put it in the hole. It's been the same deal with RM H&C sets since well forever.

I wish it would have been that simple mate, that's what I tried first. The dude clothing set was a doddle for me other than getting the feet open but the holes in the boots for this release are just too big for that to work, at least on my figure anyway.

Awesome pics, ShortRound! :rock


Got my H&C sets in today myself. Thought putting it together was actually pretty doable after hearing the stories here. I used a small screwdriver (flat) to lift up the plastic piece under the spring and then just slide the chest piece under. I had to really size down the neck joint though, it was way too thick to fit inbetween the chest pieces. :dunno

All in all, quite happy. Do miss not having sunglasses on the soldier version. :(
 
Started adding the blood to his clothing, still lots to do, but finished re painting the face and neck.

Your on the wrong thread man.....you got a mess to clean up on your paint job thread. That's total disrespect to ignore that and post elsewhere
 
Man I was so jealous looking at all these awesome pics but having this guy in hand finally makes me feel so much better! Haha this figure is insane and I love Aeon's paint job!!!

... and if that wasn't awesome enough since I had to wait so long for my painted Eagle Eye sculpt, the man himself painted it for me!!! Something only fullset buyers received! Thank you Lee!

Will take better pics later, was excited and snapped these quick!
 
Oh also FYI the HT Mandarian sunglasses look really really close to Bickle's and I tried them on and while they look great I just love the sculpt too much to cover it, if anyone wants I will take a pic later when I have time and show.
 
Congrats on the RM painted Eagle Eye!

I would say "it was definitely worth the wait" no?
:rotfl
 
Bullet and I have been discussing a Freaks European get together in none other than Amsterdam in June/July.

Its not limited to Europe. If you ever needed an extra excuse to go to Amsterdam here it is.

We even created the Link.

I dont care how many go I will be there whether you go or not. Can't wait to see those who do though :)

Amsterdam Freaks Get-Together Thread.

Shoot... I was there twice this summer... Another trip from states will get me bankrupt. But great idea...
