EB has been all about NBA stars as of late....

Well... Rodney Koh is associated with xl-shop... so I would assume it's xl-shop....

Not everybody..... There's Bruce Banner figure too... and it'll likely be an exclusive

I suppose it's the HK port...

Tom @ Thor2: Dark World set.... reference's his hair, not as in Avengers...

If so, one would not label the Video as "Mk. VII being stolen"

Improving & Tips for 3A's Halo 1/6 Carter


A few points:
1. The LEDs used most likely are rated at 5V.
2. Bicep has ordinary (brighter) LED powered at 4.5V with 3 batteries, 3V with two.
3. All other LEDs are SMLEDs (Surface Mounted LED) powered at 6V as the 2 CR2032 are in parallel. (Weaker brightness).
4. Absolutely no fiber-optics was used, all the LEDs are connected by wires to the point of lighting.


Tips: Arm batteries.
1. Being physical impossible to fit three AG4 (Thickness:2.6mm), you can use AG1 (2.1mm) batteries instead.
2. For quick insertion of the batteries, you can wrap all the three batteries in a cellophane tape, bottom and top exposed, slot it in as a single unit. Few seconds to insert, instead of hours as reviewed by others.



Improvement: Alternate switch.

There's a larger empty space behind the neck, above the battery/circuit compartment, under the rubber suit collar.

Location for the secondary switch:


The PCB is just simple electrical connections/connectors, no resistor or other components.
Points to connect behind the PCB:


A flat switch soldered onto the said 2 points:


1. The switch was just place on top at the "said location" wires snaked down to the opening. The switch could be glued in place though.
2. The original switch remains in off position.
3. Switch on/off lights without opening the back, problem aligning the connector pins to the back cover, reduce/eliminate the need to open the back, new switch remains concealed.
4. Depressing the switch, just press the rubber behind the head/neck.

This maybe reflective of HT's final Catwoman sculpt:

Since your're addressing me.... and probably regarding 1/6 Portal figures from 3A...

It's been posted almost 2 months back (12 May) on the previous thread, as the PO was announced:
https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=60306604

Drowning of a particular item in a thread is due to popularity, interest, trending, ownership of the figure, a some-what-democratic posting process in the thread.

As the Portal figures are just in the Pre-order phase with only pictures from the manufacturer, one would not expect much discussion on it.

Whereas Mk. VII has just arrived, of course people are excited about it, hence more posts on it.

This thread has been slow about 2 years back, but still progress rather steadily. There are basically 3 events that prompts more posts 1). PO announcement, 2). HK releases/General releases, 3).Availability in the local market.

Sure, if you want to splinter this thread further, manufacturers that produces 1 or 2 figures (or a few) a year will truly "drop off to oblivion" in the threads ranking....

One of the points of the thread is to share news and feedback on "higher end" action figures with people of the same or similar interests (or branching to wider similar audience, so-to-say). Dividing that audience (with multiple threads) further will dilute the interest group making it smaller. If a particular manufacturers is popular it's not without merit, it will be subjected to the same critique if their quality drops.

Not with 1/6 cars and robots (though some HT's Iromen parts/heads can be switch around).....but a unifying theme would be modularity and ability to customise all the parts, clothing, and bodies to your liking regardless of manufacturers, That's the biggest point that pique my interest in this Hobby, excellent head sculpts and good design are the other two

Sports shoes * 1
Sportswear (Combat Version) * 1
dress pants (Combat Version) * 1
Knife (alloy) * 1

The metal-piece on the face-plate are very prone to falling-off (silver bid on top)..... if yours is missing... either find it or replace it... It's not a failure per-say .... it's a new design to hide the switch/batteries within the head... Helmeted HS like the one with special movie promo BD Mk. 7 will still use the conventional 3 magnets instead of one to stick the face-plate
