That's a real gem of a find

Now if someone would just make repro Alt hands I'd be set...

Same here, although I do dig the posed ones too. Are there any articulated manipulator sets?

I also note that the extra hand sets are more expensive than the joints. You'd almost be better off buying a MG 1/100 Gundam. They usually come with some extra hand sets, and you'd get a Gundam in the deal too.

Still... very good news. I always KNEW there had to be stuff like this you could buy... I just never knew where I could find it. Thanks Jin!!

Nope, did this pretty quick. I've been hacking up Sigma 6 figures for my new 'Video Game Allstars' line for Playstation Magazine. I'll be doing more TFs but I need to get these figs outta the way.

I can't find the articulated maniuplators right now. There's tutorials about chopping up square sections of styrene and making the fingers bend by putting wires through the pieces, etc. That's kinda advanced tho.
