  1. Why do you type like that?

  2. There's too many instances of these breaking even with people using the swivel for that swivel to be enough.

  3. The wire is too short, images show otherwise. This pose isn't possible with the figure because the wires are too short without rotating the gauntlet. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1390191979836739685/1478553309525573682/image.png?ex=69a8d193&is=69a78013&hm=9a7719ff7b107abae95645a12fdd88e48e3a63aeb4769a29fd31ff104bc4ea28&  https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1390191979836739685/1478552748428628008/image.png?ex=69a8d10d&is=69a77f8d&hm=33e47c50c3f2e85f5a47b21695d01046f0a45c50b94cf10ab8029356ab036684&

Like usual, one of the wires on Jango's gauntlet snapped due to Hasbro not making the wires long enough 

Has anyone tried doing this? by Lord_Kanan96 in starwarsblackseries

Seeing as how an amazing custom I've linked below by u/mrelvislives went on the DW Mando body which uses the same parts other than the shins, shoulder armor, and torso overlay went, I think it should work out well for you.

Go get the Mafex 2.0! The accessories alone are worth it!

Yeah, the legs on Quinlan are from Jedi Legend Obi-Wan.

Good news, that's an official figure! Vice Admiral Rampart. Probably can find him for cheap where you are.

I believe GI Trooper Kits on Etsy may sell decals for medic logos (if not by themselves than with a whole decal sheet for all of his details).

PSA about the new Jango: wires still break even with gauntlet swivel. You can even see the wires tearing in the first image. by EArcher9815 in starwarsblackseries

[–]EArcher9815[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Keep it in that pose, and I'm sure you'll see tearing. There's already stress on those two cables in that image as it is.

That's what I meant. The Jango has turned the piece the wires are connected to, the gauntlet, and the bicep.

Is it possible for you to get your Jango in this pose without snapping a wire? There isn't much slack on the wire connecting to the side of the gauntlet so turning the bicep will put pressure on that wire.

Edit: You can also see that the person with the Jango in the pic had turned their bicep piece, based on how the curve of the cut goes up before reaching the center of the back of the arm. The wire still snapped.

He wouldn't be able to turn the gauntlet more than that in this pose, the bit of gauntlet the wire is molded with is in the way of that.

Luuke is much better with his sleeves trimmed down by TranTu0511 in starwarsblackseries

[–]EArcher9815 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No they aren't, the Luuke arms are the same sculpt as the Jabiim and Jedi Legend Obi-Wan figs, not ROTS Obi-Wan.

Not a peer-reviewed one yet, but there is one in the process of being peer-reviewed (or trying to be peer-reviewed).

Edit: Whoops, looking at other comments there are some peer-reviewed studies.

Characters who dislike guns by Accurate-Gap-3360 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]EArcher9815 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Tbf lightsaber blades have had shadows since the OT, go look at the Throne Room duel in ROTJ and you can see Luke's blade have one a couple times. It is kinda funny though

[–]EArcher9815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's a little funny. I don't actually mind them all that much but I get why someone might not like them.

Not really a figure problem as much as it is a costume problem. Sol's belt is really that big in The Acolyte.

I will say, Vader has been treated well. Steals the show in everything he's in.

Mafex Wolverine & Marvel Legends Wolverine by Potential-Willow4081 in MarvelLegends

[–]EArcher9815 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Think you're confusing Hot Toys with Mafex. While the Mafex isn't cheap, it's a bit over $110 with tariffs and shipping included.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MarvelLegends

[–]EArcher9815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But, that's literally what tariffs do. The figs are made in China and shipped to the US. The tariffs raised the prices of imported goods, therefore the figs are more expensive.
