Ok, I'm Stumped.
I need a little help here 1. Can anyone tell me HOW that grappling hook gun is supposed to attach to the Alley Vipers Backpack? 2. Can anyone tell me WHAT that suction-cup handle-bar thingy is that comes with Paris Pursuit Storm Shadow ( and now apparently City Strike Duke)? 3. for all of you customizers, is there a place where you can buy the part that joins the upper and lower torso of the figure? 4.Short of a "head swap" does anyone have any suggestions on how to improve the Baroness, Covergirl, and Scarlett heads? (Pics or links would be helpful as I am a very visual learner) Ok now for the observations 1.Ally vipers night-stick can fit in the slot inside his shield. Just align it vertically in the slots under the shield handle and let the night stick handle come out the side. 2. MOC collecters will have no problems finding a paris pursuit baroness with straight glasses, they are molded on. 3.It may be that the Rare Snake Eyes will once again be the Black wolf. Just came from three stores. All had 2 PP SE with Grey timber. No Black ones. 4. I think I know why the computer sculpt baroness looks bad: Cheeks. Looking back at all other and previous figs, including DTC covergirl and Marvel Universe, it would appear that cheek bones and structure do not translate well at this level (maybe its the smirk lines/ dimples). It explains why scarlett looks bored but does not suffer from "butter/granny face" 5. If you are a MOC for the rare things, and you get a doctor (black or white coat)without a monacle you may hold on opening him. Images with a monacle are on the web. I can see it now. White Coat/no Monacle=$$$$$$ If you have an answer to any of my questions, you have my undying gratitude. If any of my observations are old news, ignore them. If you have any of your own, add them If you have differing opinions, GREAT! (good discussion, and it is a DISCUSSION BOARD!). |

2- It's a suction cup to "simulate" climbing

1) For ally viper's backpack I just use one of the clear rubberbands from the packaging to hold it on. It looks like the pins inside are not long enough AND the holes in the gun are not deep enough for it to work effectively.
I have an observation. Outbacks Flashlight comes off very easily, on mine to the point where if the wind blows or a fly lands on it, it falls off. |

4. Take armor Scarlett's head off take camo Scarlett's head off. cram the armor head on as hard as possible, not really a fit but stays on and looks great.
