Re: MISHKA
Anyone figure out any fixes for the stage diving Giant? Between the heat and the tilt he's not safe in my room.

Hey Steve, I think I have but it's going to involve a little drilling and some filling with magic sculpt. I'm going to try in small scale first and then do it to my giant bootleg. The problem is the weakening of the ankles in the heat. It makes the vinyl soft enough to collapse under the weight. I think with proper reinforcement, it can be fixed. Will keep everyone updated.

Re: MISHKA
The M1go giant Kanegon required you to put something heavy in the feet and then fill the legs with something to stiffen it up. They have the same issues of the vinyl not always being strong enough to support it's size. I haven't personally done it, but I think that expanding spray foam will do the trick. I would be careful not to overdue it though 'cuz you could ruin the articulation I'm sure.

Just have to heat up the feet and slightly bend it back to position before spraying the foam I guess. May try that also.

Any time I've used it in a construction project I've always over done it by about 50%.

Like the Ghroul, but bigger, badder and stronger! And I believe its vinyl too! And wait till you see the header art for the antique custom Bootleg.

Post a shot of it. There's also a Baby Huey somewhere;D (in vinyl). So much goodness this year.

Re: MISHKA
I'm so glad that Baby Huey is coming to vinyl. Seems like sensible modifications were made to make the mold possible. Finally people will see first hand how bad ass this toy is.

Re: MISHKA
Man I want to see Baby Huey in person. So much detail and that's only the unpainted. Are we going to see any painted Huey's at SDCC?

Re: MISHKA
PHANTOM BOOTLEG! Bootleg of a Bootleg, if you will. L'amour had a great idea to pay tribute to, and put me on the hunt to find its origins. And if you don't know the reference, well that is your homework to do for this weekend, hahaha. Simple, easy, fun. This was one of my favorite headers to put together.

Re: MISHKA
I thought the SDCC bootleg came with three heads. Is it just the skull head or have the other two not been shown yet?

Based off of the toy the Obake dog was based off? The weird snoopy skull thing?
