Nice trick with the head assembly! Really useful vid. I pinned the feet with 0.8mm wire and it wasn't hard at all. I recommend using a scriber first to create a pilot hole, then you won't go wrong (like you did with the barrel! :) )

Thanks for the video, I tried plastic glue but it just wouldn't take. All in all, these were quite frustrating for me, as my hands shake.
@simondrury7941 3 жыл бұрын
Video was a great help as book diagrams are too small. Gave up on pinning the feet as it tended to make them weaker in my opinion. I hate assembling plastic and normally work with metal so this is a nightmare for me, but all went reasonably well. I have used clear bases despite loving basing my figures with rocks and tufts.

Do they come with multiple options or still the stock standard stuff we've seen with the Imperials and what not? Even the few options we got with Bossk/Sabine are a nice change.
@Zorpazorp 4 жыл бұрын
Nah it's just the same loadots unfortunately, I was a little disappointed with the lack of options too.
@Mailed-Knight 4 жыл бұрын
General Grievous has a custom loadout. He can have four lightsabers, three lightsabers and a blaster, just three light sabers, two lightsabers and a blaster, two lightsabers or one lightsaber and one blaster. He can also have a cape or not.

I let my excitement get ahead of me and accidentally glued two of my B1's with backwards torsos. Was originally upset by it but the forward leaning neck makes them look kinda cool, plus I just use my imagination to pretend it's an assembly line screw up in the droid factory.
