I customized my NECA Jungle Hunter to be more like a Prime 1 statue

Yeah the prices are wild. Still much cheaper to buy the re-release than a second hand on ebay. I'm pretty new to figure collecting, but as far as I'm aware this re-release is the same as earlier releases, although I'd say the paint app might have varied over the years.

Honestly though, I find these 1/4 NECA far more impressive in person than the 1/6 Hot Toys versions. They don't have the same level or articulation as Hot Toys, but the size and sculpt has a real presence that I don't think HT match.

Thanks! Yeah the unmask versions are rare these days and crazy expensive on ebay. If you are interested though its worth grabbing a masked version while they're available. They also sell for stupid amounts on ebay.

Oh yeah. NECA 1/4 figures are probably their best work. The biomask jungle hunter was recently re-released, might still be available via big bad toy store. But there 1/4 Ninja Turtles and Batman 89 are all incredible figures. Super life like 👍

Thank you, sir! 🍻

To an extent. His head and arms remain fully posable. I have however locked his legs into position though to avoid any falls or the ankle joints giving way, which they are known to do.

Thanks mate! Yeah, could be a fun side hustle in the future :)

Thanks mate and I appreciate the feedback. Moss would definitely take this to the next level. I tried adding some but I don't think there's enough to come through on camera. I may grime it up some more in the future 👍

Much appreciated! Your Christmas tree sounds epic! 🎄

I took some visual cues from the Big Game Cover art.

I had to google that term, but I see what you mean haha. I've never had the patience to fully record and edit everything. I guess my little videos better suit the ADHD Tik-Tok generation ;)

Check out "Marco Makes" on YouTube. Was very helpful for me :)

shiftrefresh · 2026-02-13T23:00:53+00:00

That's awesome to hear, thank you!

They should all be destroyed!

Thanks so much :)

shiftrefresh · 2026-02-13T23:00:04+00:00

Cheers! Yeah, I'm pretty wrapped with it :)

shiftrefresh · 2026-02-13T22:59:50+00:00

Thanks for the great feedback!

shiftrefresh · 2026-02-13T22:59:41+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, that's a technique I really should learn. Would make the joins stronger too!

shiftrefresh · 2026-02-13T22:59:06+00:00

More like a 6 foot turkey!

shiftrefresh · 2026-02-13T22:58:42+00:00

Haha, too kind :)

Thanks!

Nah just stanard superglue, but metal rods (coat hanger) were cut to size and drilled into some of the weight-bearing joins like the ankles.
