Hot Toys – MMS183 The Dark Knight Rises Bane Figure

[Sidious-66]

I'll explain better if I can -

On your video from 7.00 minutes on you unscrewed that part of Bane's arm and then put the other arm into socket that Bane's arm was originally screwed into.

Basically when I did the mod I just took out the whole arm with the socket attached, then I took the TTM-20 arm and just sanded down the circular peg on the TTM-20 arm and then I attached it to Banes shoulder.

Sorry it is hard to explain.

I guess the bigger question is: Will what I showed in the video work with that arm?


With my my, parts are just swapped and nothing is sanded because the parts fit perfectly. At the end I say that some sanding will need to be done to the TTM-20 arms. Is that correct? DId I indicate the right area?

If not, I need to annotate that video.

 

[Sidious-66]

Maglor I think it should work.

I actually think you made it easier because like I say I actually sanded down the peg on the TTM-20 arm and just slotted it into the area where Bane's arm goes.

You seemed to have unscrewed the arm from the 'shoulder gizmo' as you called it and then put your new arm into the shoulder gizmo and then you fitted that back into Bane's shoulder.

You see that the arm has a circular peg on it, well I just basically sanded that down (TTM-20) so that it fitted into Banes shoulder and then I attached it all together again.

I have saved the tutorial from the member I took it from do you want me to send you a copy?

 

[Maglor]

That would be great, thanks!

 

[Sidious-66]

Still finding my way around the board Maglor.

How would I post the tutorial to you in a Word document?

 

[Maglor]

No idea.

Can you just send me a PM?

So how big a pain is it to put the sweater on? Is it a patience thing or really a pain? I like the sweater look.

 

[Maglor]

It's a pain, but in a good way. I like dressing my figures.

Getting the vest just right over it, and getting the gauntlet over it are the hard parts.

For me, getting the sweater on with vest over it was easy. The hard part...... getting the overcoat over all of that (both sweater and vest underneath)... mostly because i had to hold the sleeves down so they don't scrunch up when the arms of the coat are being pulled on, plus it's a pretty tight fit, took a while but it works.

 

[Maglor]

Does he wear the sweater with the jacket?

 

[Hydeous]

Douse he wear the sweater with the jacket?

In the movie, yes.

 

[Sidious-66]

In the movie, yes.

I just dressed my Bane like that yesterday and it was a pain in the ***.

 

[The Chev]

I'm not too worried about the jacket cause If I did dress him in the sweater I'd pose him without his jacket.

 

[spindrift]

Anyone have an extra Bane for sale? Man Ebay prices are ridiculous...I need a second Bane for some mod work!

 

[Jokes & Bats]

In the movie, yes.

Where else would he be wearing it?

 

[shells075]

Current set up, I would like another Bane really to recreate the plane scene when he is on his knees, but im broke.

I still need to repose my bane, had him in the same pose since jan, not got round to picking up the TTM20 yet for the arm swap

Batman looks great. Swap his gauntlets over - they will fit better.

 

[Stealth V3teran]

I need to glue his sleeve down anyway, been a while since i modded him so going to re-do his gauntlets and shoulder pads when i get the chance.

Back in his 'Boss' pose -
