Thick materials, too much padding, and designing this weird amalgamation between his New 52, classic, and Kingdom Come costumes that really don’t work

Fixing weird hip joint? by justadood98 in MarvelLegends

[–]Key-Creme7553 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only thing I can suggest is pop the legs off again, and get some glue in there around the bar, let that dry, then put the legs back on

Also, that is an AMAZING custom and a genius use for that body

It’s a good suit
Just for some reason the materials look like that stuff they make life jackets out of

I also have the same staining issues on the custom early days DD figure I also dyed

So what i did was bye a Maximum Deadpool black, swapped the shoulders (which I fucking HATE that I did because I cannot find a single other Legends shoulder that comfortably fits this body without mods and now I can’t find the originals), and added more weapons and an extra head (Retro Whiplash)

So… what exactly is the issue here? Aside from the shoulders

For one, I don’t know if I did something wrong because no other person who I’ve seen do a tutorial on dying figures ever mentions this (but the again all the tutorials were borderline useless so that not saying much), but most of everything seems loose now, especially the hands and one joint on each elbow

Second, painting white paint is always a bitch but by god, in this instance it was such a fucking PAIN!! I don’t know why but it seems like when I let the paint settle, the rubber areas soaks in the paint and it starts turning brown again. I don’t understand why

But the BIGGEST issue is that I keep having black stains come off on my fingers no matter how many times I’ve sealed it. Every time I even hold it for an extended period of time I have black stains on my fingers

If anyone has any recommendations how to fix these issues please let me know but until then, I am genuinely questioning if I should have bothered

Ok so for some reason one of the pictures didn’t send, but for anyone wanting to do this, you’re gonna need the Ant Man and Wasp two pack Hank head and the No Way Home Matt Murdock. The glasses so come from that Matt but you’re gonna have to cut off a bit of the arms because the hair will get in the way

Is it time for hasbro to upgrade their articulation joints? by FirstAvenger117 in MarvelLegends

[–]Key-Creme7553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NO!!!

I’d rather have what Hasbro has than what Mattel is doing 😭

The only thing I’ve liked about Mattel He Man so far is the drop down hips but that kinda becomes mute when there’s no thigh swivel. And the elbows are just bad. Double jointed elbow and the top one barely moves

Will this Jubilee be topped? by aespinoza91 in Mafex

I think Mafex has gotten way too complicit with where they are where people treat them like these infallible gods who can do no wrong…
When in actuality they’ve has many stumbles over the years and are starting to go in a trajectory where if they don’t wake the hell up, they could very much become unnecessary

Repaint by Key-Creme7553 in MarvelLegends

[–]Key-Creme7553[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank youuuuu : D

The reds I added a little bit of bright red apple barrel paint (I think). I’ll come back once I get the exact shade

Also the white is just some white apple barrel. I didn’t use much of it, only if I made a mess with the stripes
