Japanese HT Predator!

Looking good Edwint! Though all those pics really slowed my computer way down. I see that you have yours displayed the same, without those obnoxious long ass arm blades. Are you having a hard time keeping the helmet on? Mine keeps falling off with the slightest nudge.

Is the netting lose on yours? The netting here is much loser then the first two releases, that crouching leg pose would be impossible with Celtic.

thanks, guys!!

screamingmetal, my humblest apologies abt the pics slowing dn ur comp, dude..will be sure to take note of that before i start jamming the thread next time..heehee..

ya i got this problem with the helmet staying on..so i use a tinyyy bit of blue tack to stick the underside of the mask to the face..works like a charm..=p

regarding the netting i would say tight enough..some places (like the armpit areas) are way too tight for me to turn the arm..other places like the end of the netting on the forearms are kinda loose..leg areas are ok..oh..and i can't turn his hips cos of the bloody netting also..

Okay I guess Hot toys didn't improve this netting. I must've got a good one then. I have lots of room in the shoulders and hips to move, the lower legs however are a bit tight. I'll have to get some low tack two sided tape somewhere for the helmet.

keep those pics coming Ed. With pics of that kind of quality I dont see how anyone can complain about their computer slowing down. Also this is the day of cable/dsl connections isnt it? pony up a couple of $20 bills a month for broadband.

me thinks that the best solution would be to dump the pics elsewhere and just apste a link here to that particular site, maybe just paste up 1 or 2 pics so they'll know whats in store...i shall take note of that in future.. ..once again apologies to those for having to load up them pics!!

Do you know if they can send me a replacement spear?

Having dial up means I can use those extra $20s for figures
A solution would be to split the number of pics into different thread pages. Maybe I should just lower the number of posts shown per page.
The pictures are appreciated!

It all depends. I've never had a single accessory replaced by Sideshow but I have heard of it happening. You may have to return the whole thing.

Hey edwint, could you tell me where you connected the helmet wires?

 

[edwint]

Hey edwint, could you tell me where you connected the helmet wires?

u mean to his back pack??its at the under side of backpack..just beside the gun thingy..its 2 veryyy small holes side by side..hard to see once its assembled but its should be there...look against the light and u should be able to find it..=)

 

[Dark_Spidey]

I've just found'em, thanks a lot Ed!

Btw, what is blue tack? I'd like the helmet to fit the face a bit more.

Does anybody know where I could find some thin coiled metal tubing just like the helmet wires? I need to replace one and can't seem to find anything like it. I've tried Hobby Lobby and places like that. Any ideas?

I love this picture! Best ever!

Consistantly impressive dread work, man!

 

[edwint]

thanks!!

once i read from michael (crawford)'s review of the hot toys pred that each individual dred comes with its own in built wires, i knew this was gonna be fun..

just repainted the eyes a 2nd time..the trick is to delete the eye 'whites'..

 

[screamingmetal]

The eyes look great Edwint! So which is it, mask off or on from now on?
