Fantastic...Security footage from my apartment shows that my package was stolen. Mykombini won't refund me or send a replacement.

You might pursue a claim with USPS, or whoever delivered the package and left it unattended outside your apartment.

So i got Jango recently but found his lower torso ball joint to be completely loose, so much that his upper half would flop around. To fix it i cut out some thin foam sheet to size, hole punched it and popped it in the hips. Problem fixed as the foam provides some much needed friction. Hope this helps anyone else with the same issue.

I just used a tiny piece of paper towel and placed it on the ball joint.

Clear paint/ varnish for me

For Jango's torso, I just used a square of mat adhesive strip. It added thickness to the ball joint and some friction.

(that's not my finger )

I think it was this brand:

....whoever delivered the package and left it unattended outside your apartment.

Although this sucks, you'll need to start choosing EMS, or registered SAL, for all of your packages, since they require a signature. SAL small packet will be left at your doorstep without a signature, where there is always a possibility of theft. Sorry for your loss, dude.

Neat fix!

And I was just watching some news on Youtube about thieves stealing packages for doorsteps. Hope you have it settled.

Where did you get the foam? I may have to try this myself.

I may have got it from Hobbycraft here in the UK, it was years ago.

Is this thread still working?

 

[Rogerbee]

Probably, there just hasn't been much SW activity where SHF are concerned, people have been over in the Mafex thread a lot recently.

 

[Auel]

Nah, there's isn't anything new except Chewbacca which is stated to be released this month. Just wait for Celebration to see if there's any new updates.

 

[Smudger9]

Isn't there a run of Clone Captains due this month?

WELP. Looks like if I want Kylo unmasked I'm going to have to pay for him again. LAPD won't do **** (no surprise there), my building manager won't reimburse me, and my renters insurance doesn't cover petty theft which this is...Anyone have any leads on Kylo unmasked for less than US prices? I already paid $90 for a figure I don't have. Really don't want to shell out another $120.

There's always the Mafex though of course that's not as good in the face department.... but it's a hell of a lot cheaper.

Man, that sucks. I've only seen two Unmasked Kylo's on Ebay in the US, and both went for $125. I should have jumped on Toyzinthebox's $90 Kylo. Missed out. Luckily I have $74 worth of Ebay bucks. Hopefully someone puts one up. Need that in my collection.

Yeah I'm kind of phasing in and out of the SW figuarts line..it's getting too expensive..so I'm really picking and choosing what I'm collecting..it's really pissing me off that figuarts are making a lot of their figures $100 exclusives like Padme

In other words, I'm not impressed with what figuarts is currently offering in the SW franchise

Padme is only cost me $80 shipped if you use the fastest shipping. I have a feeling you're talking about BBTS though.

I do wish they wouldn't make so many main characters exclusives, otherwise I'd wait until I could get them at a decent price on Amazon. I got 2 Geonosis Battle Droids from them for $60 shipped the other day, and an AOTC Obi-Wan for $40. I was supposed to get a AOTC Clone today, but they didn't ship it until 2 AM last night and now I don't know when I'll get it. I did get another month of prime added to my account for the screw up though.

If only that were an option. I am strictly SH figuarts. Only plan on collecting OG trilogy and new trilogy. I have all of them so far, which is why it's so upsetting that this happened. I can only imagine the price for him to go up.

Just got around to picking these up. Personally I find more value in these than the 1/6 stuff at the moment. More fun to pose and I guess I'm just more into sculpted detail than fabric, though it does work nicely in some instances.
