    Oh wow, I'm much more interested in that Dark Knight Rises Batman now. It looks pretty darn awesome.

    I put up a review of Lara Croft for those interested:

    Too bad there aren't any of the Halo master chiefs on sale.

    I grabbed Lupo. For that price I couldn't resist. Wish they made a Four-Eyes though.

    Anyone know if the neck and shoulder joints on Play Arts are universal? Could you pop the arm off of one at the weird forward movement hinge and switch it with another figures?

    I'm tempted by that Agent 47. Are there issues with that figure?

    IDK, but he is pretty freaking tall though. 10-11 inches? http://fs153.www.ex.ua/show/33009475/33009475.jpg

    I don't think you can just "pop" it off. You might need to open up the torso and even if you are able to, not all figures are the same scale. Catwoman and Lara, look the same, but Lupo is a bigger scale so that joint will be a tad bigger as well.

    Huh, this might require more cutting than I'd hoped. Ah well, perseverance.

    I'm not trying to fix anything per se. I want to transplant the robotic arm from the Play Arts Kat onto the shoulder of Lupo.

    Ahh ok, I don't think that'd be possible though because of the inner shoulder piece. Don't know for sure though, I no longer have Kat.


    Missed the 2nd half of your post (thought it was part of your sig), but great review! Sucks about your bow though. Were you trying to force it?

    Sorry if this has been covered already, but I just got in Lara Croft and the instructions are useless at telling me which hands are suppose to be for what weapons... I am trying to get her to hold her bow and arrow. I figured out the holding bow hand, I am not sure which is the holding arrow hand, they all look like they can hold the arrow lol.

    She's from the Collectors Edition game pack and she looks really good. I am glad I picked it up. Reluctant at first but she's really great, just wish her legs didn't have a big gap between her butt cheeks in some poses, but I can live with it. She's got a nice ass ;)

    I've never replaced her hands. The ones that are already plugged in seem to work for all her weapons. There are gaps between her fingers, so it helps with different size handles.

    Yeah they all seem to have slightly different curves of her fingers. Just don't see what the proper hand is to hold her arrow so it looks like she's notching it onto her bow string.

    I meant the figure's nowhere near as epic as Evil Ryu in game. This looks like a straight repaint. No changes to the chest, the face, etc.

    Should've posted this a few days ago:

    Yeah, but thats because it is a straight repaint and that its not supposed to be Evil Ryu. The NECA and SOTA toys did that with their SF variants. BBTS Made a mistake in the listing and thought a Ryu with a black gi means he is Evil Ryu. Its just an alternate color scheme he uses in the game.
