Edit:
Ive decided to take this down temporarily in the pursuit of improving the product. Im looking into a softer resin for increased durability. sorry everyone! All interest is appreciated! Here is a pic though of what will soon be! And they are 10$ a pair not 15. There will be package deals for those looking for more than 2 pairs. Last edited by Dark 5cythe; 11-07-2008 at 02:50 AM.. |

I'm almost tempted to go out and buy 12 dozen Vipers now. That looks great man!

Hey everyone!
I finally got around to doing what should have been done long ago and I hope people still want these. We've got fixed, custom, working Viper hands for sale! They fit easily on the existing peg with little work and look great once painted! the resin is a flesh tone very close to the viper so all you need is some paint for his gloves! No more crappy crooked wrists on the televiper or any viper! Sorry for slightly blurry pics, ill put up better ones and painted ones soon! For now, the pricing is $15 for 2 pairs and includes shipping. anyone who needs more than 2 pairs, we can work something out. Too bad I spent nearly 1000 bucks on other things today. |

Wow, $15!! Like Aly/Broken Arrow Toys, you do great work, but pricing is STEEP. I understand work/time/effort and cost of materials, but that's a lot of money...
Those look great and were they cheaper, I'd buy a bunch for my troop of Vipers. Like the guys making the conversion kits for transformers figures, it's great that fans like you guys are providing a service for other fans to truly complete their collections with better parts for their figures.

The more of you that voice your opinion about wanting sets, the more I can convince my partner to redo the mold thus dropping the price. we try to be reasonable.

Nice job Dark 5cythe! Wow, that sure as hell looks useful for me. Alas, my cash ignited in my pocket (like in the episode "Money To Burn") and I have lost all my cash and now have a huge burn-hole in my jeans ass cheek.
But honestly, I'll be keeping these in mind for the next time my money sets fire to itself spontaneously. They look fantastic. You know... they look like how we should have gotten them in the first place... normal. Last edited by butter_the_pure; 11-06-2008 at 02:52 AM.. |

Not to nit-pick you, but I think it would be better to cast the parts in RED so that the only paint apps would be the flesh tone. Would be more beneficial to those afraid that their limited painting skills (such as I ) would rub off or scratch under handling.
Just a thought...

the rest of the arms are cast in flesh color...the hands getting painted flesh would look off and silly. Not to mention, the gloves are two different shades of red. DarkSkythe made the right call on the colors here.
