I'm not sure I can change shutter speed on mine...and the lowest my ISO will go is 80...

I'll have to take some time this week to see what I can do...maybe pick some brains...

I have this crappy makeshift light room... so it wasn't pitch black in the first place. That probably is it. I feel like retrying this now that I found my tripod... brb.

...yea... it was the lighting all right... =.

Ha! Leave it to a non-camera detail to be the culprit.

I didn't my shots in the dead of night so it was pitch black in the room except for a tiny bit of glow from my computer across the room. I really like how yours came out though, it captures the light up effect and you still see the full figure.

But now, seeing that there'll be FOUR repaints of the RTS Prime mold, well Maketoys has their work cut out for them... heh.

Ah, got it. Thanks!

Love the pics

Tiny goes in the middle. I can't wait. Tiny's size is soooo perfect.

I have mixed feeling about this.

I got a little too ambitious on the second one. They took a tumble a couple of times, but nothing broke. It was a difficult balancing act mainly because of a couple of joints in Herc that could be tighter. It would also be nice if the shovel on Structor could move up just a little further. A few more degrees of ankle pivot could do wonders as well.

Dang!...HLs hips are showing off!

It also woulda helped if you had tried this on a surface that wasn't slippery
