tomservo @studioskinner Would you mind of I posted this photo to my Instagram?
tomservo @studioskinner Holy Cow! That's amazing! Did you point them in my direction? Also, did Tom's head fall off?
tomservo @Bigfoot_123 Awesome! That reminds me, I should probably post a stand for Crow. I made a stand for mine out of Lego.
tomservo @GamorreanJedi That looks great man! I'm gad you like him! How's he getting along in the sandcrawler?
tomservo @trailwaywalker They're definitely not the same size as the Shout Factory ones. These scale well with six inch action figures though, so I think that they look good on a toy self.
tomservo @trailwaywalker At this scale, the clear detail is actually a little milky. I recommend getting him in a solid color
tomservo @RoboW4rrior98 There was a silver material, but it was discontinued by Shapeways. It didn't match very well anyway. It's not too hard to find a model paint or paint marker that comes close. I hadn't updated this listing since a few things changed, so I opened up a few new materials. Any of them should work, depending on your preferences.
tomservo @paulcook1983 Sorry about the inconvenience. Be sure you've cleared out any extra material from the holes that was left over from the printing process. If that doesn't work, if you have a sharp knife, try shaving down the inner walls of the hole. After that, try working them on with a wiggling motion and tap them against a table top to work them on. You should be able to get them to wedge on with friction, so you don't need to use any glue. If none of that works, let me know.
tomservo @simofash31 Thanks! You can now order them in Metallic Plastic. It's silver, but you still might need to paint them to get them to match your custom. For my own, I used WSF Polished and painted them.
tomservo @jrosar32 Ok! It's up. By my measurements, the pegs on Scavenger's arms are 4mm, so that's what I did. I have the American release, but from what I've seen, they're the same as the Japanese there. https://www.shapeways.com/product/AUUC7CYJC/constructo-blaster-5mm-handle-4mm-ports?optionId=76916975
tomservo @GamorreanJediBut I do have bases for them! https://www.shapeways.com/product/FGBLXRX8X/mystery-bot-base-set?optionId=62149424
tomservo @trailwaywalker I think mine are only a little smaller than the Shout Factory ones. If you let me know exact height of the Tom, I can figure out how tall Crow needs to be to match up.
tomservo @trailwaywalker in theory, it would be as simple as just scaling up the model. At that point little issues might pop up that arent a problem st this scale. Of course the cost will go way up too. I'm willing to give it a shot. Are you making a 12" scaled set?
tomservo @Wheeljack66 That susks! What material did you order it in? It's an older model, so tolerances might have changed since then.
tomservo @BackToLife That is an impressive Soundwave collection you've got there! I'm glad that one of my scorpions can be a part of it.
Yeah, a little sanding is to be expected in complex models printed in WSF of WSF polished. As for the legs, they are designed to be assembled with axles made from paper clips or big safety pins. Once those are in, you shouldn't have any problems with him falling apart.
tomservo Extremely cool.
tomservo Any pics of the assembled gun?
tomservo @G1COLLECTOR Radical!
