Guys, any comments about ToyWiz in Amcorp mall and ToyGarden in Sungai Wang?
Pre-ordered EB's Michael Jordan from them and till now no news. Oh did anybody got their MJ yet?

yeah i buying it if hot toy come out for it but please the price wont be over RM700....

Hi guys just wondering how can I remove my hot toys iron man mark ii batteries on both feet.. I unscrewed it but doesn't seem to b able to open up the plastic cover..also am afraid to do damage to it if I use too much force.. Pls advice.. Tq

oh yah, and that too


er...if that whole thing is die cast, it may well be over 1k


after unscrew, i just used a flat screwdriver and stick it into the slit and pry it open so far no problem though...

You just unscrewed it smoothly. and removing the cover is a bit tricky, you need a small flat surface screw to remove it gentlely.

Stick the flat screw driver to pry open at the side of the screw or the other side to b exact?

Now another headache. The screw for the chest reactor battery compartment was too tight, after trying a few time with force the screw head grove got loose. Any idea how can I get it open in this kinda condition?

if u look at the battery cap closely, just next to the screw there is a small slit (hole)....use a small enuff flat head screwdriver to stick it inside and lift the cover...screw side or other side, can't rilli remember....have to try it urself....be gentle and u shud do alright...and as for the head groove got loose, do u mean it's damaged? like that tough luck loh bro...must use proper size Philips screwdriver ah good luck man!

A.K.A. stripping screw heads, as mentioned by "Pliskin" you're using improper screw-drivers for the screw heads, using proper screw-drivers "stripping" rarely occurs.

Solutions:
1. You can replace the screw, drill the head out, use pliers to twist the rest of the screw (stub) out.
2. Preferred solution: Essentially remake the grove on the screw head, by turning the plus philips head grove to a flat-head "minus" screw head. I use a rotary tool essential to any modelling hobbist: Dremel (like) with a fine-tip rotary bit to reshape the screw head that allows the use of a flat-head screw driver to twist open the screw, and best of all the screw is still re-usable.

As for the Lighted LED feet of Mk. II AU..... they don't come off easy mainly because of the paint adhering the pieces together... anything that will give you the proper leverage (large flat & thin head screw drive for example) will help you break the connection without causing much or minimal damage.... or you could just leave it in for the moment... I believe I have more than a dozen of these feet, that I just leave it as such (for the moment), leaking is a minor issue to me, the circuit is so easy to be made/rebuilt, and I have lost count, but I've around 50+ HT IronMens... (That'a around 500+ batteries, ticking time-bombs )

Wow....can share a photo of your ironmen?

Btw. Is all preorder in local toy store needs full payment? Nowadays the preorder is 6 months to 9 months...

Photo... maybe later, as I get them in order.. (which maybe never... )

Human figures maybe as short as 4 months...Iron Men figures might be as long as 2 years... lately they have gotten it down to 10-11 months. Not all stores need full payment, and different stores have different policies... XL for example needs full payment for online PO... but just partial for store PO...
