Geek With Style Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I found the remnants of Series 2 at TRU today. No sign of stragglers from Series 1. So if anyone has a spare Shane and/or Glenn set, I've officially given up hope of finding them in their natural habitat and would appreciate some help. Same here, I would be willing to trade my Morgan set for Shane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 So, what are everyone's solutions for getting Michonne to hold the chains? I wrapped some Scotch tape around the ends, and she's holding that, but it looks bad. I also don't want something permanent like gluing them together.

youbastards Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I went lazy simple and easy way by positioning Michonne and her arm the way I wanted it, then draping the chain into her hand when positioning the 2 zombies. She doesn't actually hold it, but it looks like she is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 For my picture I posted, I put a tiny dab of sticky-tack on the part of the chains that I wanted her to hold, then worked that into her hand with her sword. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just recycle the little clear rubber bands often used to hold weapons in place in the Star Wars Figure packaging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spookyboots Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Check the new pics of T-cats Wave 3 Wilykit and Wilykat! SHORT LEGS AND ARMS! Maybe Carl ain't a man just yet... If I remember correctly this set was projected to be released with the 2nd Thundercats 4 pack. When it was not announced I had crossed my fingers in the hopes that it was pushed back because they were making those two smaller. While I do buy the Thundercats mates, the biggest reason for me wanting them to be smaller was that it would mean that there would be a good chance of getting a shorter Carl. When I asked Art Asylum a few months ago during one of the Q&A's about smaller bodies for the Walking Dead children they replied that they had no plans. But with the great communication they have with the fans I was hoping that their plans would change since so many people were clamoring about it. I just wish they showed them standing next to Cheetara and Tygra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterFisto Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Hello MM collectors. New to the forums, and relatively new to Mates. But I have become fanatical about the show, having just watched seasons one and two on BD. I wanted to comment on the issue of Michonne's hairpiece. I know another member here said that he boiled the head and used a hobby knife to slice off some of the headpiece. I went about it in a different way. I just popped out my dremel and shaved off a small amount of the head. After a few sessions of shaving, the headpiece fit more snugly down on her head.

MINI_MYTE Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Was a little disappointed that Michonne didn't come packed with her poncho, so I took it upon myself to make one. Actually I made two. Hope you like how they turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MINI_MYTE Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) Holy crap....Incredible work! Thanks. For those of you wondering, I customized some spare ponchos from the Man With No Name boxed sets along with a hood from the Legacy minimate to create Michonne's trademark poncho(s).

Zombie Shakespeare Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Those are really nice. Future versions definitely need a poncho. Are the hair and the hood one piece? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Those are really nice. Future versions definitely need a poncho. Are the hair and the hood one piece? Yup. I dremeled out Legacy's bangs from her hood and whittled down a Michonne hairpiece till it fit inside. A little crazy glue and voila.
