    Crazy the choice we have in that I can do the same shot but half of them are different figures of the same characters.

    I was looking everywhere but can’t find the answer. I just recently picked up this big boy before the holidays. He’s awesome. But I cannot seem to connect the backpack on to his shoulders or that lower back piece with a secure locking. It always comes undone. I had read that there was trick to do it but I can’t find where it’s at. Can someone tell me the trick or point me to the solution. Thanks.

    Is this guy worth it?

    Was going to buy the Hot Toys HulkBuster but realized it is too much money. So I wanted a big bot substitute

    Fully agree with this, he is totally worth it. When I first got him I was amazed by how nice he os and the overall quality. I then added ToyHax decals and now the figure pops even more.

    Im even in the market for a blue one if it comes up at a good price.

    Ok

    I’m still seeing a lot of availability for this. May have to jump on it.

    I have the original and 2 of the blue repaints. I like them all. Someone here once posted a pic of their FT-20 doing a breakdancing handstand. I didn't know it could balance so well.

    I recommend picking up as soon as your able to. Once FT items start becoming scarce then prices start shooting up and you don't wanna have to pick this up at scalped markups.

    So I am going to do some tinkering with the springs and buy some springs from a company online. I am going to see if I can make his hips a tad stiffer and his arms stiffer as well at the elbows. I hope my idea works. And yes it's a pain in the ass because I have to disassemble TG and the other two guardian repaints I have so it will take some time. I hope to order the springs tomorrow.

    if you want stiffer bot get gabriel...;) 

    but instead of buying new springs why dont you try to stretch them. even a small amount should do wonders. or you could shim the insides so the springs have more tension on the ratchet.

    I do have Gab and he bus awesome! And I did try stretching and that was a minimal gain. Shims were also tried, but I want to see what a super strong spring will do. Hoping for good results,

    the only thing i would be worried about with stronger springs is them blowing out the joint.

    kind of like what happened with trypticon and his hips.
