I take all the extra parts out of the boxes and put em in ziplock baggies and store them in a tupperware container under one of my cabinets. Although I dont' have that many 1/6 figs to deal with. I do have half a spare room stacked to the roof with PF boxes tho. There is no good way to store those unless you want to just start using them as insulation in all your walls I suppose haha.

Here's my review of the Sandtrooper PF Ex. Sorry about the crappy lighting, there wasn't much sun yesterday.

Have the same problem with the gun not fitting in his hand, I'm pretty certain they just glued the hand in at the wrong angle.

In terms of the clips, I was able to get them attached, they were pretty thin but they didn't seem like they were going to snap just didn't go together without a fight.

Will post pics tomorrow afternoon, or I guess this afternoon technically.

Bwahahalololo yeah I may do that lol. Never considered all the boxes but they add up quick. I'm going to def revisit my boxes and my attic and the pieces.

I even kept my Koto boxes but the resale value is low or is sell all my FA crap. I POed them way before I got better HT and SS stuff. They are nice but eh. I'll add a misfit island shelf with mixnmatch stuff. I'm probably buying the Play Arts Marcus Pheonix so they will have company. Man I have a box full of Bioshock stuff. Besides 100s of boxed Halo stuff of old I have like 150 opened pieces. WTF was I thinking lol. Some you can't find anymore.

Long road ahead. I hate to just give them away. Probably a completist or 2 out there.

I forgot to mention when I called SS they shipped my ST free since it was their delay woot toot.

Here are some pics. Sorry for potato quality, rocking a 2012 phone.

Cool pix! So the gun in the SS pix really isn't in his hand anyway I think.

Got mine today. I love it. Nice all around solid statue. I bought him to pair with the stormtrooper, and I love this more than the Stormie. Makes the pose of the Stormtrooper look that much more awkward. The gun wouldn't initially fit all the way into the hand, but I was able to gently press it into place. I'll post some pics tomorrow.

hmm.. it seems the rifle not sitting on the hand is a common problem for all. getting worried..

 

[myc]

that hovering rifle bothers me... lets see when I get it in hand..

. I see what you did there!

 

[Maddogatron]

Is a pity about the hovering blaster, statue looks fine to me, great base too.

Ok guys, I unboxed my Sandie again to have another go at getting the rifle into the hand. I had to push fairly hard, but the rifle did go most of the way into the hand. The pinkie finger was stopping it from going all the way but it still looked miles better. Hope that helps!

The rifle on mine hoovers.

 

[Phastroh]

Out of hand sucks but in half way is ok but all the way in is best.... er the gun I'm talking about of course.

I see your rat facing backwards so it can face either way or am I missing something. He looks like a pet rat purring on the Sandie!!! Great pix too thanks it looks fantastic I WANT MINE TODAY!!!!!

 

[choopie]

Yeah, the rat seems to display either way you face him. I realized I had him in backwards after looking at pics, but decided to leave it the way it is. I like how his tail wraps around the Sandie's leg.

 

[Phastroh]

I may do the same. Good idea

Looking good in those pics!
