That's one of the pages I have book marked. Very helpful.

i am looking for a brand new MIB takara if anyone knows where I can get one at a descent price.

 

[EdwardNashton1]

Ah screw you.

Will do when I have my own cam.

There was someone at OSW (zebraten, iirc) who made a tutorial about repainting a figure using cheap facial make-up Looks really great, anyone can do it, and if ever you f@ck it up, you can just wipe it off and start over

Not a great idea long-term. There are mineral oils in most make-up (especially the cheaper ones) which over time could have a nasty effect on the plastic, eating away at it or turning it to "goo".

looks great man!

is this the cape you were thinking of selling off Mag? I may be interested if you can post a pic to show me if it can do this:

 

[Maglor]

That's the TDK long cape. I was originally gonna sell it when I got the Begins cape. However I found out that I actually prefer the TDK cape.

The Begins cape can definitely do that if you want to buy mine.

I'll take a pic.

is the begins the velvet? if so, after I receive payment from a few folks (still waiting ) then yes i think I would like to buy it

 

[Maglor]

Yep, velvet.

 

[Gipetto0812]

awesome! I'm hoping that once the exclusive Demon Bats comes out, I'll be able to snag some proper boots

 

[Maglor]

 

[Gipetto0812]

is that the Begins? i would guess since as it looks pretty long..or my eyes could be deceiving me and it could possibly be the TDK long

 

[Maglor]

Velvet TDK long:

Velvet Begins long:

Damn nice Maglor. Hey, quick question. I may snag a Takara Batman soon and I wanted to know will it fit in the Hot Toys Tumbler?

 

[Gipetto0812]

^^im sure it will fit. It's the same size (height wise) as the HT OC Batman. I actually think the OC Bats is slightly taller

 

[haytil]

The Takara Batman may also be a little bit more poseable and flexibile, so it might actually go in the Tumbler easier than OC Batman.

whats a fair price for the takara, opened and in good condition?

 

[Gipetto0812]

Almost done with Take 2 on my Takara Cowl sculpt! Only have the ears left to work on!

 

[Maglor]

whats a fair price for the takara, opened and in good condition?

Mine was opened but complete and in excellent condition. There was some damage to the box which taped up nicely. I payed $105 and I though that was a good deal.
