Rainman Artwork 2013 NYC Cabbie "Driver"

I suggest you change that body and try putting it on a hot toys body! It may so happen that this specific body is defective! There is no way that neckless sculpt shld look the way it does in your pics / if there is a neck already mounted on your body. Lastly can you remove the sculpt / open buttons and show a picture (sounds weird lol) so we will know exactly what's going on there!

thanks guys ill probably put the chest piece on was looking at last night just need to find a tiny screwdriver, here is a pic of the neck on body 11760319_938340539542988_7666779027442694181_n.jpg
 
It's probably a matter of the KO neck being too short. The clothes were tailored for 21 arms on his custom torso, so that's probably your best bet.

You definitely need a small phillips head screwdriver. Hopefully someone can post the tutorial for you. I'd do it but I don't have it handy
 
Could also simply be that the neck cavity is too deep and wide, so that it doesn't sit right on a traditional neck without some padding. I don't think the custom chest should be necessary here. The issue is the relationship between the shoulders and the top of the neck, and I can't imagine that would be so different for the custom piece and a stock body.
 
^^ I agree! The custom chest won't have much play!

I think

1) the neck is sitting too low! This does not look like the eBay KO in which that issue is not there
2) I also think that the inside of the head may be drilled a bit deeper - some blue tak stuffing may help to keep it high

My suggestion is to try this on a new body eBay v 4k or a regular ttm

The neck seems a bit deep on this one, coupled with may be the hole in sculpt is drilled inaccurately and also the collars being raised is not helping the case!

Jedi / try a different body no need to yet move to the custom chest piece! You can always do that later

The patches are not accurate, and they are cheap paper like things that are peeling off the jacket. I'm going to have to disagree with you. Theres room for a lot more improvement in that area and improvements in those small details are what help bring out the charm of these handcrafted figures more, in the same way the early suggestions about improving the sunglasses were voiced which Robbie gladly took on.

Shouldn't you concern yourself with refunding the people that paid for the t-shirt that never happened first, anyways? I have a friend that still hasn't received a dime back from you yet?

Weren't we talking about patches? Not sure how this fits into the conversation, but I'll gladly look into it as I have for everyone else that was issued their refund. Who's your friend? Please have them contact me immediately.


The patches, do you think they could be done much better or do you not think it's possible to improve them or correct them for accuracy (King Kong Patch).

Thank you. I have sent him a message and I am sure you will hear from him shortly.

The patches are absolutely fine imo. I wouldn't dare try to remove the patch from my M65.
 
But are the patches accurate? Do you agree there is room for improvement?

As it stands, this is the graphic of the patch we recieved but it does not accurately reflect the graphic design of kong in the film used patch. Some subtle differences between the two....enough on my opinion to help improve the figure if someone were able to make some better quality accuracy improved set of patches.

You should probably confirm with your friend that they have recieved their refund. Next time try asking why they didn't recieve it initially. It's always wise to get your facts straight. A pm was sent out months ago requesting paypal info inorder to confirm that refunds were going to the rightful refund recepients. Your friend never responded to that pm.

All resolved.....ya might want to lay off that meth, Teddy. :lol

No, it's very simple really, go to the payment info within your PayPal account and press refund. It's not difficult :lol

Not quite buddy, you see people change their paypal address or use their wives or ex's paypal address all the time. You change your freaks name every 4 months or so...:lol. So it's probably better to confirm with the person who is entitled to a refund before actually sending them out...wouldn't you agree?

Hey, anwser the patches question? Don't you at least think they can be improved for a more accurate representation of what was used in the film? The quality of the patch could also be improved no? At first you were against the Bickle sunglasses being made but soon realized that an improvement was possible after Robbie revealed his version. You should apply the same optimism for the patches.

with the grain teddy, not against it.....Cheers.
