Where did you get the custom shields?

I got them off of Aliexpress.com, but it looks like they're sold out. I also saw some of the same ones on Ebay with a healthy mark up, but those appear to be sold out too.

Very cool, I'd love to see some pictures one day! That LC MF in box is prob worth 800.00. A good thing to keep in mind before you pop its cherry.

I am weathering mine, so i guess i ruined it, lol. xln9ns9.jpg

Managed to get a Miria 639 for her Q-Rau. Paid $137 USD via Amazon on the 17th and got delivered today 40 mins ago while getting a late lunch at home even though it said the delivery date is the 6th to 21st of next month.

Nice! I kind of hope the Kitz figures come out good and they eventually make M&M.

Got another Marvel Legends Tiger Stripe Wolverine for $6.62 after tax.  Getting figures for cheap is good to offset the cost of other figures.  Now I can have one Tiger Stripe Wolverine with a classic belt and one with an X belt.  Also one brown costume Wolverine with a classic belt and one with an X belt.

Also got Figure King # 246.  Lovely.

@borgified  Word of warning on the wedding dress figure -- over time the plastic will oooze out something that's greasy under the figure, might wanna make sure it's on glass or something you don't care about, also the white dress plastic will become icky to the touch.

I gave that one a good rinse and an acrylic clear coat to see if that helped

Thanks for the tips! I did open the box afterwards and did get the oily film on the wedding dress. I was going to air it out after all the 20+ years in the box and give all the three figures a good bath with a mixture of dish washing liquid/warm water. 

Will have to get a acrylic clear coat spray from either Wally World/Michaels.

July’s HLJ haul!

I wasn’t a fan of the 31S color scheme, until I saw the shade they used on the DX. It’s much less Christmassy than it first appeared.

I knew Dinobot was big, just didn’t realize how big.

Good Cool Kaiser VSX is a wonderfully over the top cluster gattai, yeah the feet don’t like to stay on when picked up, but I’m a fan for how ridiculous it is. (I’ll post a pic after work).

Baby wipes are the solution. O used huggies wipes and problem solved.

I just tried baby wipes on mine and it helped.  Thanks.

 

Should thought of using that first.. I'll give that a go and then give it a good wash down. Air dry for day and see the results.

Will have to get the three Macross Tenjin art books when my funds recover. :)

I've had that Miria 639 for years. I don't know what kind of cheap PVC they used, but she gets all slimy and sticky after awhile and I have to wash her off with soap and water.

I'd like to know if putting a clear coat over her fixes the problem for you.
