I don't think this is the kind of "issue" you are looking for fixes on but I replaced that original pudding headsculpt on Roadblock with a Marvel Legends Luke Cage (Mike Colter) and am much happier with it

You know I have opened 16 of the Classified figures so far and I have been very fortunate to only have 1 figure that has slightly loose limbs. My wave 1 Roadblock had a little bit of wiggle in his hips. I just used a small rubber band around the hip socket to fix the problem.

Anyone doing anything about the peg for the CT rifle if you want him to be a righty? Cut/file it off?

All my Cobra Troopers are right handed. I just ignore the peg, it does not bother me or get in the way, so I don’t really understand why this bothers so many people.

It stands out quite a bit on the submachine gun. I can understand why it bothers people. I wish the pegs were smaller, but I'm not going to do anything about it. If someone ever makes a 1:12 assault rifle I like (something like a G36), I'm just going to replace these guns anyway.

It’s odd it really does not bother me, and I have strange ocd issues with my toys. I actually have some scaled G-36 machine guns and they look pretty cool on them. At first I was not a huge fan of the weapons the Trooper came with, but they have really grown on me. And Cobra always used crazy futuristic weapons in the comic and cartoon. But Beach Head and Roadblock’s guns I had to replace with more realistic weaponry.
I've heard the FIGMA versions are too small.

Does anyone know how to remove a vest or web gear without damaging them?

Depends which one. The Snake Eyes one, with a little bit of heat, it'll slide right up and off him.
For RB, you have to heat him up and remove the arms to do it.

Has only modified Dukes shin guards?
I've seen someone replaced the boots with another figures boots. But wondering if cutting them off and painting them, what kind of effect it would be? Any ideas? |
