OK, So I bungled mine up a week ago and have been trying to think how to fix it. Anyone know if these guys have any elastic parts inside that might deteriorate if I'm cleaning this guy up with Acetone? I do have a backup plan if everything goes completely wrong, but want to avoid surprises. Thanks! Hopefully I'll wrap this guy up soon. (I was sooo close)
There's a rubber "O-ring" that links the torso to the hips of the bottom legs. If you soak it in acetone, it will eat that away and the legs and pelvic "briefs" will fall away. Not to mention a rubber tube that connects the arms and adds tension so the head doesn't flop away. But you can take the figure apart by unscrewing the one screw in the hole in his back. Pretty easy to dismantle and put back together.
Great! Thanks. I had undone that screw at the back, but wanted to make sure it could go back together before I pulled it all the way apart. There may be hope for this guy yet!
So I've discovered that Micromen are to small to flock! Mine is finally done. Simple silver and black... flocking the little guy was WAAAYYY harder than I expected. I'm kinda so so on the final outcome.. maybe I should have tried something different.
Flocking flock you,.....you flocking flocker! This would look great in Green, too. or Red or even Purple
MicroDestro & bonus COBRA edition lil' Hedo found their way to (one of) my S7 shelves...thanks again cj!
Adam this is supercool, i have been working 12- 15 hours a day at my new job and trying to move at that same time.. i finished yours & others for this trade but mistakenly packed them with my gear. i located them today so i will get pics up tonight then get them mailed out this week. i am mailing to: ribbon controller VELOCITRON Pickleloaf Crystalglowchrome lurker thanks much to all who have completed the trade, your customs are all very cool and its neat to see different takes on the spaceglider. i have not been on here for the past month so i expected to see more, is everyone else still able to finish this trade? i hope so.. please speak up so folks know what is up! thanks!
guys I haven't forgotten my responsibilities with this trade, I've just been extremely busy lately with work and life, and haven't had time to finish. I barely read the boards any more, but this will get done. I'm not participating in any more trades until it is, because I know I'll fall behind. Hopefully in the not too distant future you'll see mine finished.
