I had a sneaking suspicion that once repaints started showing up, people would be buying multiples.

How the heck can you go wrong for $35???

Hmm I took the hulk buster apart then drilled holes in the areas I want the leds done and then retired it with a switch to the battery compartment and removed the annoying sound board and red led and replaced it with mine.

I just finished my repaint today. No pic of the back because I didn't finish detailing it yet.

Which red paint did you use Xero? Spray can or airbrush?

Sorry! I thought I responded.

Step 1: Clean the entire thing down with dish soap and water. Make sure to rinse well and do not get the electronics wet! Let it dry well.
Step 2: Spray paint a primer coat for plastics, let dry well.
Step 3: Spray paint your desired red color choice, let dry well.
Step 4: I used Sharpie brand permanent marker paint pens to do everything else (Gold, Silver, Blue and black) on this figure. (I don't have access to an airbrush or the space for it yet)
Step 5: Add weathering with silver and black
Step 6: Clear coat with desired shine. (I still have to finish the back so I didn't clear coat it yet.
Step 7: Enjoy a $35 figure looking like a $150 model.

Edit: I also thought about taking the figure apart and filling it with GREAT STUFF or something else heavier to give it that solid feel. The figure stands very well on it's own so this is in no way needed.

If this was 4-5 inches taller I would buy it and do the repaint.

Any ideas on how to get it taller? Would really want it in scale.

In sixth scale?

It's a few bucks more, but this one is in sixth scale:

Yeah it really is too bad he isn't about 2" taller. I suppose if you put him behind a couple of figures and put him up on a platform of some kind. But he's definitely undersized compared to HT figures.

The Titan line is 12" figures, so my guess is they decided to undersize him to keep the price down. I'm sure all of us would gladly pay $50-70 for one that was in scale. But not sure many parents would.
