Rainmans 'Killer A'

Unless I'm missing something they don't. The foot pegs just sit in the oversized hole in the bottom of the boot. So needless to say every time I move him around the boots fall off.

You cant use the HT feet inside the boot?

I tried, but failed, to take pictures of the inside of the boots; the hole inside is like 1 full centimeter wide, too big for any Hot Toys foot peg I've ever seen. Not sure if its meant to simply hold the calf minus the actual pegs...not sure how it stays put though. Maybe full set figures have something that H+C buyers don't have in terms of a customized body that fits the boots?

No transponder in my H+C as well so 2 lucky winners are still out there. I agree the head is a little big but I think the clothes are baggy / big enough that it wouldn't look too wierd. Anton has some crazy thick / bobby hair that also contributes to the look over the "size".

I will post some pictures but paint app is superb.

I also have some questions about the boots. The holes are super big, do true type figure pegs have that big pegs? its like almost 1.2 cm wide.

There has to be a way that it fits right. I'm sure the boots arent falling off of the full sets. If the hole is that big maybe the ankle itself fits in without using a foot peg at all

I think that is right. I don't have a True type body to test but I'm also thinking maybe the ankle minus the pegs go directly into that 1cm hole...

Wow Aeon done a great job, still a little sad I missed out on the h&c set.

Holy s__t that sculpt is incredible! That paint app looks to be as good as Rainman's

 

[vareika]

Looks so much better in person too!

Would that not decrease the figures height?

Yep, removing the foot pegs work. The ankle now fits in the hole but it would need still to be glued to stay in. I think I will just leave it as is.

Yea Aeon is no joke. Those look really good. This is a miracle for all you DF Studio Bill owners!!!

That's another perk that you get with the full set. You're spared any tweaks that you have to do to get everything set on the body. There is definitely a way because many of his figs have the same type of customizing to make them work. Maybe if people can't figure it out he'll post a tutorial like he has in the past.

I'm responding to slow today. Damn 1:1 life!

Is it tight so it doesn't fall off? I doubt he glues it. If it is loose, he may use a small piece of paper towel to tighten it up

Sugar is at the post office and will picked up tomorrow!!!!!

Have to say, that looks on par, if not better than rainman's paint

Don't you need to remove the well that the footpeg sits in from a Hot Toys true type foot and place it inside the boot? Thats what the 1cm hole is for. Isn't that the way Rainman has always done it? It's what I had to do with my Plainview H&C set.

 

[turbo.VS.ozone]

That Aeon Paintwork is fantastic!
Did the H+C sets come with the Gun?

I see Rainman's website has a new look!

Ya, the transponder was the unique item to full sets, everything else the h&C set got too, I'm glad he gave gave both of those weapons to everyone.

You are correct. I can't believe I forgot this.

Fixed! Thanks so much.
