rainman already mentioned magnet switch out for the dx set Erik, like his narrator.

Presumably Calcifer an teddy were querying about the other sets?

Re: Rainmans New Project: Dr. Huckleberry

The magnetic neck makes sense for the DX, but I just don't understand why it would be used for the regular fullset. It won't look bad, but a sculpted neck (when the joint can be concealed) almost always looks better imo. He should have gone with a sculpted neck for Wonka too, if you ask me. But nobody is, so I will stop posting criticism in this thread

i think all feedback is good feedback rainman doesn't know what people like or don't like about his figures unless people say so. at the end of the day every choice is up to him as the artist, but opinions never hurt, especially as this isn't a criticism of the art itself really, just a small technical part of it. i think it's a good observation.

sorry... i should add, all constructive feedback is good feedback. "rainman, you is ____!" probably doesn't add anything to the thread.

Re: Rainmans New Project: Dr. Huckleberry

of course I was completely forgetting about the switch out

Well to be fair to Rainman he is going to keep everything simple which I don't blame him for. If the DX has to come with neckless hat head for the switch out then I certainly wouldn't blame him for then using the same cast for the standard release.

I haven't seen if this includes the cigarette?

This would be my ideal pose to be honest. Does anybody have any suggestions for the left hand?

:/ .. that would be really lame if you ask me, so not only does the dx item seem kind of pointless it also in effect degrades the full set figure! and yes I do agree with you Teddy and I'd complete understand if he used the same neckless cast but I can help but feel pissed off with this dx item and all the problems with it!


Teddy a cig would be seriously easy to make yourself, I'm talking toothpick for Comedian easy here!

I used a 'bendy' hand to hold my cigarette. Don't know if Hot Toys makes 'bendy' hands.

The T800 hand wont work for ya? It worked well for my Dude's J.

Re: Rainmans New Project: Dr. Huckleberry

Ya those bendy ones do the job but they looks to shiny and unrealistic, I bet there is a suitable hand out there somewhere.

T-800's hands are kind of large, and have liver spots on them for some reason

Do you have a pic? The gap looks to big between the thumb and index finger for Doc.

Re: Rainmans New Project: Dr. Huckleberry

Here's what I would do. As Hot toy hands are pretty mush easy to switch out, I would just have a dedicated cigarette hand. In other words make it permanent by taking a relaxed left hand, heating it up with a blow dryer and super glue the finger and thumb onto a non-filter cigarette.

Not a bad idea here.
