Action Figure GI JOE Kitbash Parts Help and Trade Thread

[Skiman]

CC should be blue or black. No red.

But it's your figure, so what others think doesn't matter.

And knowing is half the battle.

Plus, you should be perfecting your Ninjas with that red cloth. Red ninjas are just way too expensive on the secondary market. You're our only hope Obi Wan.

Also, has anyone ever taken a sculpt with a neck and made it into a neckless sculpt? Whats the skill level on doing something like this?

Wow, they are. A Elite one sold last month for $330.

Cut the neck off and then dremel the head to fit the neck. Trim it if it needs it with a x-acto.

that sounds pretty easy, but I have a feeling its going to end up being like that Will Smith song "I think I can beat Mike Tyson". I'll let you know how many fingers I have left when I'm done.

At any rate, I've gotta start customizing sooner or later, tired of sitting on the sidelines watching everyone else do the heavy lifting and I want Crimson twins very badly and don't see Sideshow doing any this century.

 

[EVILFACE]

It is that easy. I'm sure you have some junk heads to try it out on first.

 

[spiderrogue]

id have someone mod the head for you...ive tried it and it wasnt the best..a bit more work then i wanted to do..lol..

as for the red ninja..yea..they are hard to find...

 

[Niltusk]

I'm gonna try it, I have three heads, one is my test dummy anyways.
If I keep having others do for me I'll never have mad skillz...

Hey Matt,
I'll take it
Hit me up!

 

[da Bronx Commando]

According to the new rules, do you have to be a premium member to ask for a trade??

 

[jaberwaki]

Yes Bronx you do. Unless you have a Cobra officer head sculpt. In that case, we can trade.

 

[spiderrogue]

trade no..sell yes...

 

[da Bronx Commando]

Ok, so one yes and one no. Hmmmm. I don't want to violate the rules here.

 

[spiderrogue]

check with DD and make sure...but he said these threads were a bit tricky....since they are mostly for trading...so it's a gray area...

the 25 bucks a year is worth it if you want to sell anything...and you can use PANJO(free selling service)...and a bigger PM box..which is worth it alone..lol..

I asked on facebook when the site was down about trading fodder & was told it was cool for non members.
