Oh, ha...no, nothing like that. I just can't buy everything anymore. I don't hate on anything because I can't afford it, I try to have legitimate reasons. With the smaller ones, I can justify somewhat being a completist, at least.

We're just teasin' ya.

Sideshow does automatic 2day air shipping to the Aloha state.

great price on shipping too

 

[teemu]

They hate on anything out of the range of a weekly allowance-based budget.

can't help but to at that statement

(its too true)

 

[cr0w]

Yeah, I've noticed that in traditional action figure collecting, i.e. 3 3/4" Joes, MOTUC, DCUC, etc. etc., the ratio of mature adults to man-children is staggeringly lopsided.

Not saying 1/6 and above is much different, mind you, but there's a noticeable difference.

So....no new pictures yet? Come on!!!

I really need to learn the dialect of Skizitonia.

You do leather work?

I wish. <insert Clerks II reference>

Chicken Little as usual in here i see.

Eh, a little. Half the (battle) fun of the JOES is the customization.

SSC G.I. Joe Hawk > HT Indy stunt double

I do not agree.

2nd.

I honestly don't get the reference, is that a common complaint over there?

Yeah, and here too.

they were a bit fuzzy

Just a smidge.

Yeah I appreciate it Guyver, but I would have preferred you futzed first. No biggie. And I'm caught up.

 

[ezewok]

how could i give the jacket a more worn look?

 

[Adrosi]

another forum member favours water treatment...maybe a spray bottle to soak it with? Atleast to make it look like he wore it outside?

Its funny cuz with the desert duo the weathering was pretty top shelf.

buy one of ski's slaughter sculpts, make the custom, and make hawk do push ups until it is the jacket is worn to your preference.

Don't wet it! This leather is a real generic type of cheap leather, try drybrushing with acrylic paints to get it a worn look, I can tell by touching the jacket the water treatment could ruin it or make it smell

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Use a fine grade of sand paper, and start scuffin'...available at your local Sears Hardware! Or the Home DEE-Pot, and BLoews.

 

[Boba Ben]

I wish they still had Builder's Square. I would buy all my home improvement necessities from them if they were still around.

 

[YT74]

I'm a Menards man myself.

 

[ProgMatinee]

before taking paint or sand paper to the jacket I would try simply scrunching it in your hand, giving it some creases and such.

 

[samueljd]

Does anybody plan on swapping out his jacket for a better one?

 

[Mercer]

I'm convinced 99% of the complaints so far are related to futzing.

Pants: The pics at the Stank have them too low.

Jacket: Zipper needs to be more like halfway down, will make a big difference in the overall look.

Holster: It's not great, but it's not that bad. Hawks always going to be holding his pistol. The holster only seems to stand out when the gun is in it.

Can't wait till tomorrow.
