I see people complaining about the Duke Arms (you know the ones that like 10 figures Use)
Either its about it not having full range of Motion or for the "Suicide" articulation point. If you could just have one fixed, which would be the more important, and why? What other pieces can you think of that need to be *fixed* that Hasbro either dropped the ball on or didn't even make (I'm looking at you Backpack Less Televiper, among others). Current suggestions: 1) Fixed Suicide Duke Lower Arms (in process) 2) Steeler Visor 3) Fixed Lower Viper Arms (in process) Last edited by Butters_Stotch; 07-14-2008 at 01:49 AM.. |

The reason I ask is because I'm an Injection Molding Technician, and I do lots of repro parts for various people from various toylines using resin and also sometimes LDPE that I shoot in my kitchen.

I don't like Roadblock, Copperhead, Destro, and Bazooka's single jointed knees. Their knees just look kind of strange when standing next to the others.

Too many figures can't hold there weapons. I'm wondering if these things are even tested before being produced. The Duke arms also MUST DIE.

Delta: So your wanting to get ahold of Spare Chrome Destro two Pack heads? Whats wrong with Destros Boots as well?
protoxero: I dont make Custom Figures for sale, mostly I dont. A few years ago Cyclonus8: I've not heard or seen much talk about that, the cost in both material, time, and end product cost would be too great if only a few people were interested in such. |

Monkeywrench: You missed the point of my Duke arms question: what is the problem that means they should die? The poorly hidden point of articulation, or the lack of range of motion in the elbow area? Both are Fixable, but the methods are the difference.
The POA location can be replaced with a better lower arm, that is still glove less for those figures that don't wear gloves. Done in a way that the original arms can still be restored in less than 50 seconds. The Range of motion issue is easily fixed with a very sharp blade and some patients and trimming, as noted in the Arms fix sticky. |
