this is how Falcon should'a been made...just switch the arms and mold the Falcon head to better sit on the Dusty torso neckball..VIOLA!...perfect Falcon with shirt skirt and double leg pockets not to mention the sweet articulation the Dusty torso offers...
NOTE: this is my only Dusty, no way in hell i was wrecking him to make an actual fixed Falcon Last edited by G.I.Eddie; 11-09-2008 at 01:29 AM.. |

I really hope Hasbro steps up to the plate and uses this mold for the single carded Falcon that is coming out. I really hope they don't take the comic pack falcon and just put him on a single card with no changes. As much as I wanted to like that figure due to Falcon being one of my favorites, Hasbros execution on him really sucked. And thats putting in nicely,lol

I just bought an extra Dusty today. I think I might only end up using Dusty's lower torso and jacket flap for my Falcon, though. I used an extra TF Flint's arms for my Falcon as well. I also used someone else's idea of using Hawk's head for Falcon (I would give credit, but I can't remember who it was).Of course I am also going to give him the proper paint apps as well.

Hopefully the single carded falcon will follow this example. But looking at the photos for the latest waves I doubt that this will happen.

Hey Darth have you seen anything interesting up in the Santa Clarita area, AKA, Walmarts, the 1 Target on Magic Mountain, the TRU on old road?

Not really. I saw a few Conquests and Rattlers at the Magic Mtn Target a few weeks ago (passed on them). I went to the Wal-Mart on Carl Boyer (by the aquatics center) this past weekend and they had a bunch of jetpack Dukes, Spirits, PP Officers, Roadblock, TF Flints Wild Bilsl and CCs. They also had a bunch of the wave 5 comic packs. I honestly don't look that much anymore because I buy almost 100% of everything online now.

The problem with Falcon isn't the body... It's the head.

I saw a Deep Six and Firebat today, but I didn't know the DVD's were out now? Sab |
