I hook the shovel's case to the top first, then insert the shovel into it's case, then into the loop.
 
Any one find it hard putting on the shovel onto the back of the rucksack? ..i gan get the handle into the loop at the bottom,but getting it to hook onto the top of the rucksack is really difficult:(

Yeah, my shovel case kept falling off, so I left it off for now. Gonna try if I can get it to fit later! :)

Overall I found the gearing up easier than I thought it would be, although it was a bit frustrating at times!
 
Picked this up today, can't wait for assembly tomorrow. I'll have to find my quiet place, as the pouches look tedious. But Man is this fig. loaded.:thud:
 
So guys, was it confirmed that we will be getting only 4 figures from this line? Taylor, Barnes, Elias, and Lerner only?
 
put mine together last night. this was not easy and I didnt even connect the clips, i just hung the things on there and its fine. I wont be moving him anytime soon. I also couldnt get the helmet down far enough on his head so i just took off the hair and put it on and it looks fine. Pic:

Gonna be great to pose him with barnes and elias when they come out
 
Can someone please help me with these final three pieces?

I know some go in the mine bag. I just don't know which ones, and where the rest go.

Pardon my ignorance. Thank you.

Also, is everyone just sticking his bayonet on his front hip? I couldn't find any reference pics for it.

All three goes into the bag :)

As for the banyonet, it should go in between the ammo pouch and the canteen on the right side of his belt. You can either hook it or hung it from the belt.

All three? Wow. I was afraid of shoving it all in there. I did now, and son of a gun, it all fits!

Gotcha on the bayonet. I will do that next.

Thank you! :hi5:
 
Got mine today! :yess:

Congrats! Box even looks pretty cool!

Enjoyed looking at the pics so far, keep 'em coming guys!

I'm not picking this one up so I'm living vicariously through those of you that are.

Congrats to those that got him....looks really great.
 
I still couldn't find a place to put the machete. I know someone said under the straps just next to the bazooka on top of his backpack, but the blade can fall out unless its vertical, so I've left it off for now.

Guess I need to add all the mine equipment to the mine bag.

Thanks, Chigger58. Yeah, it's a nice looking box. It even has a slight rough texture feel to it when handled being the background design is suppose to be military fatigues.

That's great! I'm always interested to see what HT's will come up with next for their boxes. There is a reason their boxes sell empty on Ebay! :exactly:
 
got mine today.............:yess:

going to sit down & pop the movie in & frame by frame the assembly.........:lecture

don't worry..........im on vacation all this week so i will not subject my family to this level of geekness.........:lol
 
HollandX, you could mount the bayonette on the rifle as per. the box photo ...

Thanks for the suggestion!

Also, to achieve this look:

What's the best way to keep the marshmallow fluff in the rucksack tamed? It's running wild out of the gaps!
