Got mine the other day . Guitar Fret Polish also worked to removed the weathering . I couldnt believe how sloppy it looked when I took him out of the box. I did order some of the Cape Cod Stuff , but couldnt be bothered waiting because the stock weathering was too hideous. I also repainted the...
1/4 Mando and 1/6 V2 Mando . When the two are side by side , the paint on 1/6 V2 Looks pretty Chromey to me . Still deciding if I get the V3 im still not convinced . also I love the 1/4 version , despite that darker paint it still looks very nice even if it is not " Chrome " enough the helmet...
Great picture ! good to see it under natural lighting , the weathering looks like hes been up a chimney at Christmas , im probably going to call this version - Chimney Sweep Mando
much better , the armour isnt supposed to look corroded ! I think it was Hot Toys way of covering up any potential issues with chrome paint and getting returns etc . Still prefer the V2 Beskar but once this shoddy weathering is removed the V3 doesnt look too bad someone needs to do a repaint of...
Not that that is anything to go by , but here is the 501st Costuming Reference . I prefer the more muted down darker look . The V1 Beskar HT looks closer to this . I just think the new one looks a tad bright , but hey its hard to really know without looking at the actual Prop. The EFX & ANOVOS...
I think the Right Thigh Armour plate doesnt look right , it looked more like a flat gunmetal to my eyes . But this one on the HT looks Chrome with heavy washes and weathering
I was originally going to sell my 1.0 Beskar Mando - but Im just going to keep it . This new version whilst looks cool just seems a little cheap looking especially that weathering , its a bit of a turn off. If they did a straight clean version I would reconsider ! Pedro Sculpt is cool .
Hi ,
i didnt remove the fat suit as the armour was loose fitting once taken off , I re-clothed it after i died the suit , and repositioned the girth belt so it hung over the crotch and repositioned he belt there should be a gap of the flight suit showing between the vest and the belt and will...
Thanks so Much !! - yep it was modded but kep the original body - i didnt trim the body etc just relclothed it . I didnt alter the fat suit . But died the flight suit china blue , and weathered it myself. I also died the cape darker to match the screen version . I also added Foam the pockets as...
Got the new ESB Boba today in the mail. -- Got to say Im not in love with it the way I was 3 years ago when the first version came out . Im not sure what it is.
Also on the crotch i noticed a paint lump which looks like a crotch pimple . This wasnt on the first verison . The washes on the...
This pic is of the original HT ESB Fett which i modified a few years ago -- i regretted selling it . I was able to pick up the 40th Anniversary so will be interested to see if there were any updates to the figure . If anyone is looking for a ESB FETT Pop Culture Australia has a few in stock . Be...
I got a wooden ice cream stick ( we call them paddlepop sticks here in australia ) they are fairly thin flat sticks. I then cut two pieces one for each side of roughly equal length and size. They are alot thicker than the original plastic handle on the TOTS knife , so once each piece was glued...
I got bit sick and tired searching for a metal butchers knife to replace the fragile plastic knife my TOTS 78.
So made one from Scratch using a 1/32 piece of sheet metal ( stainless steel ) from the local hobby shop and paddlepop ( ice cream sticks ).
Using a dremel tool to cut the basic...
