The problem I had was that they would break on me just simply posing them on the shelf. I'd break both Microman and Micronauts. So I sold off my collection and decided to stick with Glyos, Star Wars, and 6 inch Superhero and Spawn figures. I get more enjoyment from Glyos than I did from what I sold. Glyos don't break. So thanks Matt!!Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14507588043200112173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851241126807150374.post-10423641401419220382013-03-09T10:03:41.838-05:002013-03-09T10:03:41.838-05:00That, as well as any implications related to that,...That, as well as any implications related to that, would be awesome.

I used original Stikfas joints for the first Pheyden and mostly Hasbro editions for everything else. <br /><br />I always found that mixing the softer weapons plastic with the standard durometer of the black plastic yielded better connections that wouldn't snap or get so loose. <br /><br />Also, putting a small strip of heat tubing between the ball and socket added even more durability. You can see one of the strips sticking up from Ranic's left shoulder.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14834783583579792755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851241126807150374.post-88668933267817622212013-03-08T07:18:19.055-05:002013-03-08T07:18:19.055-05:00Thanks George!

I kinda wish we could get a buildman head that was straight up Ranic's head, with the air vents and line through the front. Don't get me wrong though.
