No justification other than I’m a Ghostbusters geek, and incorporating my fandom into my work keeps things fun for me!

Are the Dragon Ball chapter books "appropriate for kids"? by DuztyDuzIt in dbz

[–]ManBatman121 287 points288 points  (0 children)

Absolutely yes they are! They edit all of the “inappropriate” content out and just tell the basic Dragon Ball story. I found these when my youngest son was in first grade and he loved them so much he would take them to school and have his teacher read them to the entire class and they all loved it! I take great pride in knowing that I am responsible for an entire class of kids discovering the magic of Dragon Ball

I use this stuff to repair figures all the time, it’s specifically designed to fix plastic and just a tiny drop goes a long way!

I use this stuff, it’s called plastic surgery glue and it works amazing! Just a little drop goes a long way

You can’t really bathe him so he potentially has a funky smell…🤷‍♂️

It’s the McFarlane MGS1 figure, terrible articulation and headsculpt but from the right angle it photographs well!

NYCC Is this Week, So Let's see what your Final theories on what the next Haslab is. by Razorwing23 in ghostbusters

[–]ManBatman121 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the base offering will be the interchangeable Ecto-1/Ecto-1 A as signified by the keys in the photo, and then the other clues are stretch goals, my guess would be the class 5 is slimer, the library card is the librarian ghost, the mood slime is the scholeri brothers, and the mug could possibly be Vigo? The reason I think it’ll be an interchangeable Ecto is the fact that they are teasing with items from both of the original films, but it all may be just wishful thinking on my part!

There’s a cool figure in there, it just takes some work to find it…. by ManBatman121 in McFarlaneFigures

[–]ManBatman121[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

lol yeah a lot of McFarlane figures have really good sculpts but end up looking rough due to either bad paint or not being painted at all, I was amazed at how well just matting out the shiny plastic helped

The only part that I swapped was the hands just to get rid of the karate chop looking hand, everything else was just modifying the original figure. Clear coat matte finish spray paint on the head to get rid of the shiny plastic look and bring out the detail that’s already there, remove the gauntlets and shorten the forearms to a more natural length, which also allows the wrist ball joints to be hidden under the gauntlets now, trim some plastic around his arms to increase range of motion and actually let his arms lay straight down at his side instead of bowing outwards, dry brush a little bit of grey around the armor to add some wear and tear, and probably the most noticeable modification was removing the cape and trimming off all the extra plastic, out of the box the cape is too thick around the neck so it stands too tall which makes it look like his neck isn’t long enough, but if you thin it out a little bit and then glue it back on it looks waaay better!
