way too much info..

Sorry bud, forgot which site I was on

The instructions that come with the grease say to avoid repeat contact with skin
The sacrifices I take for ed

Picture the scenario:

What did you get up to today?
"I've been applying lube to Ed's dome!"
.....

I'm applying extra coats of silicon just as a precaution. I wanted to make sure I covered every bit of the rubber.

 

[Mr Walker]

I'll reapply every 2-3 months, I'll just see how long it takes to lose its greasiness.

Fingers crossed it works. It should, but hey, it's Hot Toys!

Are you not able to return yours, Mr Walker?

 

[BatBrain]

My return has been processed and I now have -367 reward points.

 

[CollectorGuy]

Yeah its really low how they take the rewards points back.

 

[Lejuan]

Yeah its really low how they take the rewards points back.

Um... what?

 

[CollectorGuy]

SSC are taking back my reward pts for this, its part of the refund process. I think it was 383 in rp too.

 

[Mr Walker]

Are you not able to return yours, Mr Walker?

Not really. The dome is in perfect condition, and the rubber around the joints is, barring one spot that looked a little dry, also in perfect condition. I can't really ask for a refund that it may one day deteriorate.

Well naturally. I was more surprised how you thought it was low that you should have your RP rescinded

Yeah. In a way I totally expected this. I've used them all up, but now in in the negative as well.

At least they took my return.

This is quite interesting, it's industrial fabric I found, it's made to stretch cover things. It's jet black, the pic is inaccurate. It could look great stretched and semi gloss varnished. It's got these great little "pits" in it and the scale is pretty good.

Hi Anthrapoid, The replacement dome you plan to make is the resin dome cover with black fabric right? I had ever bought from one eBay seller and it still look great since I replace with my original ED. I forget the eBay seller name but if he is you then count me in. I am interesting to buy the replacement dome.

I think HT/Sideshow are accepting returns regardless? - based on the fact this is a defective product and its not a case of if, but when the rot will happen. Mine is also in perfect condition, it has the tacky feeling rubber, but I have been offered a full refund because I showed the FB page and links to a couple of forums on the rotting rubber as proof.

Just SSC.

Sucks for the international customers such as Walker. And you get to pay for shipping.

My ver.1 had a split dome but i was able to permanently fix it, by sawing out the dome. Bulking it out with plasticard (to make up for the missing rubber layer), then recovering the whole thing with speaker cloth. The plastic underneath was painted a satin black, which catches the light and gives it just the right amount of sheen.
