thank you ironmann.

I think that it is necessary to take off the low part of the mask and to reglue it back???

IS THERE A PHONE # FOR NECA? Anyone know if they do tours?

When will you be in NJ?

I went to visit Kyle once when he was working on the Alien, and it's great to see the guys who make all these fantastic figures at work.
Nicest bunch of people you can imagine!

Have not got mine yet also Goose, I was told the middle of June before we get ours :-(

Should get mine either tomorrow or Monday. We live in a cruel world so I'm betting it will be Monday.

Fantastic review. I can't wait to have this guy in front of me. He looks great from every angle.

It was funny at 10 mins into the video when The Predator almost took a dive.



My parcel cleared customs at 19:55 tonight. Is tomorrow looking good for this?

Did you use metallic silver and then dry brush black?

Closed mouth arrived via UPS, and I have one thing to declare:

TOY OF THE YEAR.

TOY OF THE YEAR.

Congrats.

I think it may be Toy of the Year for several boardies.

I think that you're going to get your tomorrow express

Hopefully.

Anyone know if it's UPS, FedEx or Parcelforce that deliver these in the UK?

My triplets are here! And I swear they've got my fathers eyes.

Kidding aside, I am in awe of these, Tankman, what you have brought us cannot be understated, you have captured the very spirit of Kevin Peter Hall in these figures!

Like was mentioned earlier this figure seems to live and has a VERY natural organic quality to it, the skin texture, netting, spots sheen all suggest life, not plastic.

Damn.

Well, enough rambling, here's my boys, I placed pennies under their feet to give them better stability, very useful trick that I often employ...

Congrats. You must be a proud father.

The shelf and wall display turned out just how I imagined it would do.

you mite need to peg their feet to the shleve's, mine stood fine for 2 days, then fell over inside my display cabinet.

Good idea. The shelf diving seems inevitable.

 

[Greenblood72]

I think I'll do that, they passed the finger test, pressing my index finger against their chests to see how they want to sway and right now they're resting comfortably against the wall slightly, the pennies help.

I also thought about tying some fishing line around a couple of their dreads in the back and tying that to a screw in the wall.

I may have to invest in a shelf or two. My Toy Story collection has taken up the space I had reserved for these. I did clear the lower shelves of the detolf out but it would be nice to have these guys out in the air.
