I love these figures but I wasn't thrilled with the unmasked Logan head. I decided to buy the Diamond Select unmasked Wolverine bust and got to dremeling. It was a huge, dusty mess but I really like how this head looks on the Mondo body, despite it being just slightly small.
FYI, if you own the Disney Store 1/6 Krennic figure, his gloved right hand works great on Luke. It grips the lightsaber well, too. I did have to glue the wrist portion of the glove to the hand portion since they are separate pieces but it is a perfect fit now.
Funny enough, it's the cape from the Mattel BvS Batman Barbie. It actually works great as a simple alternative to the wired cape that the SS Batman comes with.
Think you can still find the Mattel Batman on amazon for fairly cheap.
My second attempt at modding the DX12 mouth plates was on the "teeth" plate. In short, I completely removed the teeth leaving the mouth agape (see attached photos). This mod was even more difficult than the other mod but required no paint touch ups. It basically involved completely removing...
I bought the head loose on ebay. It's sitting tight on the Medi body until BBTS decides to send me my whole DX12 (hopefully soon) :pray:
Then I can get started on some of the body mods, as you have expertly shown. Not sure if I will do them all, but I enjoy modding so who knows.
Thanks, man!
If you have spares and have confidence in your Exacto knife skills, then I say go for it! I had to paint mine because I was kind of rough when opening the mouth. Perhaps if you heat it up before trying to pry apart the lips you can avoid rubbing off paint altogether. But I do...
Essentially, I sliced apart the lips of the "smirk" faceplate with an Exacto knife, cut out some of the inside material and forced the lips open with tweezers and the end of a small paintbrush. It seems simple in theory but it was actually very time consuming and delicate. I even had to touch up...
I just replied to you with pics but I received the same message explaining that the post will be withheld until a Moderator approves it. My other posts are still pending Mod approval and I assume they will never show up. Is it because of the pics? :huh
Maybe if I attach pics instead of placing...
Well, my posts were rather extensive with lots of pics and text so maybe they were blocked by a moderator??
Regardless, below is what I have managed to do with the "smirk" mouth plate (crappy phone pics):
I actually only own a DX12 head at the moment - I bought one from ebay strictly...
Hey guys, sorry if this isn't the right place to ask, (I'm am pretty new to these boards) but I have some DX12 mouth plate mods I wanted to share and I have tried twice to post pics/description and each time the posts never make it to the board. Any idea why my posts are failing?
Anyway, my...
Hey guys, I am pretty new to the boards (been lurking for a little while) and I wanted to share some mouth plate mods I did on my DX12 Head (don't have the whole figure yet - bought a loose head on ebay strictly for mods). The DX12 head is currently sitting atop my Medicom TDK figure...
