God bless. How hard was that to do? It is an AMAZING improvement. Even my wife was like, well that's way better.

I want Valkyrie with her horse! I have a teenage daughter who insists I buy all the female characters. Valkyrie on a Pegasus would have a high DAF (daughter acceptance factor).

Yeah I know. Was just thinking for an hour or so. I ended up putting it under some white LEDs for about an hour and I actually think it might be a bit brighter. I think I might try with a bigger black light and see if that makes a bigger difference. Can't believe they have LED bulbs that burn...

I was kind of wondering if I just need to charge the phosphorescent paint on the figure with direct sunlight.

My LED lights have gone dim. Has anyone else had that issue? They still light up but they don't really make the figure glow anymore. I think I kept them on for days at a time and burned out the bulbs I guess. LEDs are usually rated for 1,000s of hours. It's weird...

Looking to purchase but don't want to spend $800 on a used, damaged one on ebay...

Any news on R2D2? Are they never releasing it? I can't ever find anything about it.

I can't figure out how the arms attach. There appears to be a simple ball joint and you push it in but mine aren't locking in. I don't want to force it. Any one else have this issue? EDIT: Nevermind, more force + twisting motion worked...

Any news on the release date for R2D2?

they're right, the mouth is a bit off. Still awesome.

Man the price of the hulk was brutal, but in hand he's such an impressive figure. You see the stats of 16" tall and you think, hmmm, 25% taller. In hand, he is just SO heavy. He is at least 50% wider than the other avengers and feels twice as heavy. His joints are massive. His chest is massive...

Do you guys think Hot Toys will ever expand their Star Wars line? Would rather buy their stuff...

I doubt it. I'm sure they'll fill their orders. I'm waiting for one as well. They seem to get their shipments 2-4 weeks after sideshowtoys gets theirs. At least that's been what I've seen for Captain America, Thor, Batman, and the Joker 2.0 [who is a masterpiece btw].

Anyone else have any trouble with the belt falling off? There are these tiny holes in the back and the belt isn't very tight. It's also a smidge off center. I ended up throwing a staple in the belt in the back (well hidden). Now works like a charm. The only other gripe I have is that the boots...
