Anyone remember ToyFare?

I loved the magazine. Wish they would still make it.

Here are pics of the head thinned out from the inside(Excuse the costume on the final images. Just a body i had lying around for Civvie Thor):

I never bought the whole figure. Just a couple of heads(Plans were for a couple of civilian looks).
But i reckon it will solve the problem with the helmet.
If TA or MD part more, i'll pick up a helmet to see.

 

[drjedisith]

no problem. thanks for the pics

I had assumed you shaved off the top and sides to make the helmet more snug. Noticeable difference on the hollowed out sculpt though.

No worries. If i pick up the helmet i will take pics.

I just felt the face looked too puffy. It looks far better in hand more slender.

I'm going to see if i can resculpt the hair to be more like in First Class:

Just wanted to see what people thought of this Max Muller head before I cut the neck off.

Looks good to me. Do you have resin to fill the head with?

I have a two part epoxy that I can use to mount an adapter.

That's fair enough then. It's just that the head is really thin walled. I did some mods on one way back when.
If you are going to dremel the neck off, put the head in the fridge first for an hour or so. If you want it soft to use a blade, dunk it in very warm water first. It will be very malleable.

Yeah I noticed that. I'm probably going to use a blade to cut it off. I've always preferred the hair dryer trick.

This guy finally arrived from Hobby-Galaxy last week. I really appreciate the SSF positive word-of-mouth here since I was unsure of what kind of quality to expect from an unlicensed figure. Needless to say, being such a fan of DOFP, I couldn't be happier to include this exquisite Fassbender Magneto to the collection.

However, I don't understand the need to permanently affix the helmet to the head just to get a form-fitting look. I was able to achieve a similar-looking result by just heating the helmet in some hot water, placing it on the head then wrapping a rubber band around it until it cooled. What do you guys think?

Looks great!

How long has it been since you did that? Mine looked snug after I heated it, then expanded back overnight.

Maybe an hour or two. I'll give it a look again tomorrow and see if it looks the same.

Look's good PJB I get mine tommorow cant wait may do your mod if he need's it.

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

He will definitely need it, the flaps are very loose otherwise.

Is this figure still available? I've been reading though this page and haven't found more than Onsixkit and "look on their Facebook page".
Thanks as I'm sure this has been asked/answered so sorry for the repeat.
