Thought I'd give a quick update since I've been busy. I've been working on a huge project on and off these past few weeks.
If you've seen my photo albums, just about all of those figures I've assembled have been painted. I've lost count of how many but so far it's at least 50. I have also got around to painting the 2 PTE choppers and 2 Locusts/Dragonflys. I'm playing with some scrap plastic to assemble and attach a lifeline to the PTE choppers. Still need to do something with the Indy trucks and Humvees. I've dicked around and built some components of a Joe base. It's kinda sad. It looks like a shitty diorama I made as a kid. Maybe if I cram it full of Marauder's stuff It will look cool. If anyone can help me score some black figure stands, I'd appreciate it. I'll be needing 50 or so. I'll post some pics later if I get bored enough. |

I've straightened mine out by putting them in my oven at the lowest temperature, 175F, and putting them on a Teflon baking sheet. Just keep an eye on when they start to flatten out. I also took them off of the rotor.

If you really want to straighten them out, get a container large enought to hold the rotor blades, put them in along with some water (the water will keep them from melting) and put it in the microwave for about 2 mins, pull them out, and dry them carefully, thye'll be soft enought to bend however way you want them, if you want to flash cool put them under cold running water, but to straighten them put them under those books and let them cool, this method worked for me when I bought a Cobra POGO with extermely bent legs.
