I opened my Demon Dart today. Man.. he’s my favorite of the bunch so far!! I love how he’s complex and easy at the same time, and I love his jet mode. My only complaint is that I can’t get his orange missiles in the holes under the head because my fingers are too big and there’s no room to maneuver.
I had the same issue and @TIKnTIN gave me the DL from @foxracing that the holes need to be enlarged. I was going to sand the pegs then triple checked the other holes and they fit in just fine. I used a drill bit that was the same diameter as the holes on the "shell" and hand drilled them out just a bit. Now they peg in nice and secure. I went nice and slow and kept testing the fit until I was satisfied. I believe the fabulous Mr. Fox used a small file. You have options and options are a good thing.
Ah, well I used to get these from BBTS, but they take way too long, so I just go with eBay. Baba and 6kh are both reliable sellers. I'm guessing one or both of them will list Firmhand in the next couple weeks...
Looks good but I really dislike the 2-toed paw. Hopefully they’ll release a “normal”, symmetrical version.
1) We have been discussing about the kangaroo for some time now and we expect it to release sometime in July. What would you expect from it? 2) Regarding the diecast box that will be an exclusive @ DreamFair convention, there will be a limited number being sold during the convention which runs from July 9th thru 11th. For ticket purchase information please refer to the Beijing DF site. 3) The humanoid box silhouette that everyone has seen is slated for an August reveal. 4) In the second half of the year, we expect some combination products among the new molds and won’t rule out the possibility of an aerial type. 5) During the Beijing WF convention in November, there might be a convention exclusive metallic version of a popular character. Please wait for the official announcement. 6) No spy pics today but here’s a short clip of an epic diorama scene! https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10225366168596710
The wolf is up for pre-order on ShowZ. Their prices are higher than domestic $32 + shipping), so I'll probably wait for BBTS.
What's with the opening door at the back of Jetstream (turtle)? Is it to give it a transport look? It's on a double-jointed hinge, but there's not space in there to fit anything.
@foxracing you're only one short of a Dio centipede! I asked the same thing and I think it's just for flavor. Seems odd to have so much extra bits to assemble that does nothing though. Maybe it's just a poop flap?
now THAT config looks good! do they actually peg together, or are you faking it? also can't wait to get my NA BB/CJ and RumbleBeat delivered. these look perfect together!
@TIKnTIN the BBs seem to be perfect mounts. I've found the mega construx figures to scale very well for riding.
@carytheone I’ve got enough Dios to do a daisy chain but... @SelectedLime375 To mimic an APC. I’m not sure if I’ve closed the flap before with a tiny Jojo in there. The wolf is by the same designer so maybe we’ll see a so called “3rd mode” too? @TIKnTIN It’s super secure but can’t upload a video here. Check the FB group. Also, oooold pics...
sorta Regarding Jetsam, I wasn't even able to shove the chestburster in there and close the flap fully. It's pretty damn tight.
@foxracing @carytheone nice, but i think i prefer NA BB/CJ. @carytheone is that what these figurines are? i didn't know what they were and i got them with a couple of my TF deliveries. guessing these are KOs though. but i've been using them more as cannon fodder than as riders!
