 Re: micronauts space glider custom trade
got mine. Now to think... Anyone started applying paint? Any problems sticking to the metal bodies? Also, anyone take one apart yet? Are they hard to put back together? I'm a bit nervous that if I take the screw off the gliders it's going to spring apart.

I'm a bit nervous that if I take the screw off the gliders it's going to spring apart. As far as taking the screw off of the "dash-wing"—which is what those winged backpacks are called—it's not hard to disassemble, but there is a small spring there and it might be frustrating the first few times to reassemble. But it can be done. I did it when I was 10 and did it again recently 30 years on. Not too sure about the pain on metal, but I'd assume that a primer or sanding parts down might help. But I have never owned any of the Palisades reissues so not too sure about how good (bad?) the metal is as far as paint application goes.

 Re: micronauts space glider custom trade
I have the sickest "header" finished for mine. I have my guy apart and waiting for paint. Be sure not to strip the tiny screws and that spring sure is small. What are you guys doing for headers?

 Re: micronauts space glider custom trade
The spring is what causes the "wings "to pop out. If you take the screw out of the backpack there is a small spring.

 Re: micronauts space glider custom trade
hey how is everyone doing? just checking to feel the waters on our trade timewise. i know that i am painfully behind in most areas of my life but i finished my figure last night and wanted to see if others may need a bit more time.
the due date is 12.20.08 which i wanted everyone to at least have pics of their figure to post at that point. if anyone needs more time please speak up so we can adjust. i would rather have this take extra time than not work out for some.
what says you?

 Re: micronauts space glider custom trade
more time would be great for me too. I have big ideas, but they're all in my head so far, and I'd love to be able to make the best of this little guy!

 Re: micronauts space glider custom trade
Star wars cards? Nice! I used a g.i. joe card. The duke figure came with an american flag that maked room for the base and backpack of the space glider.

 Re: micronauts space glider custom trade
lets extend to 01.09.09 plus i have to send out a replacement to Phil because it had a bad rivet in the figures arm..
if anyone else got a defective one just hit me up via pm so that we can all make the new deadline thanks again for being involved.
i will announce the random trade partners on the orginal due date so that everyone can exchange whenever you are ready.
