The figure itself may not be accurate to the design, but it is a killer Prime toy, and you've fixed a number of the major issues with it - the paintjob, the lack of articulated hands and head. Should have been like this out the box. Really well done, great attention to detail. |

Im making a movie accurate OP so this is a real inspiration to me. I might go ahead and add a ball jointed neck and articulate hands as well as long as thats ok with you? | |

#15 | | decepti-jerk Join Date: May 2007 Posts: 123 Location: Atlanta Collection Count: 50+ | I recently decided to dress up the leader OP I got for my Birthday 2 years ago. Maybe I'm just excited for TF2. But anyways, yours looks great! I think the reprolabels give it the complete, professional look. I like your mirrors too!
The big question for you (I've been pondering it myself) what are you going to do about his sword? I have been running around looking for clear orange plastic protractors, rulers or anything I can cut up an paint to look like the one in the film. | |

I just picked up a Premium Series Prime and I like what you have done so far, especially the articulation of hands and head.
Any extra info on how you did the hands?
Keep up the great work!

I might go ahead and add a ball jointed neck and articulate hands as well as long as thats ok with you? | The scale I used for the mirrors are 1/24 metrical scale. It's a kit from the brand Italeri and comes with a lot of other parts just to pimp your truckmodel.
It's OK with me when you want to do your own Prime. I'm flattered when people get inspired to do their Prime this way. If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask them. I'll answer them. Quote:

With magnets or something like that. Quote:
