MST3KFan Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 I just got my C3 Robin figure in the mail yesterday and noticed when placed next to my C3 Nightwing how tall he is. I understand it's due most likely to his belt attachment. But I also notice his hairpiece refuses to stay on his head. Any tips or ideas on how to maybe tinker with this? I thought maybe to use the DC minimate Robin we got with Penguin maybe as one idea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love C3 'mates, Robin $ Nightwing being 2 of my all time favourites. I had never noticed that before ,I've just checked & its because Robin's torso is longer. The hairpiece is a problem ,try blue-tac (I think this may be called something else Stateside). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omendreamer Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I personally use earthquake hold/museum putty to hold on the hairpieces of the earlier 'mates who don't have pegs in their hairpieces. A small amount works best as too much creates a lump that makes their hair appear to be levitating above their heads. Which version of Robin does everyone think the C3 Robin is? The DC wave 2 Robin is clearly early Dick Grayson, what with the man-panties and all. The costume of C3 Robin, with the covered arms and legs reminds me of Tim Drake, but the stupid grin is definitely not him. I'm intensely curious to know what everyone else thinks, since if it's meant to be Tim I just might have to buy it, regardless of the facial expression.

Hey, here in Southern California it's a reasonable name. I have also seen blue-tac for sale I think-is it a bright blue color? I've always preferred museum putty since its white color means it can be sharpied over if it sticks out. Quake hold is a concrete grey, pretty discrete for a product that has a neon yellow lightning bolt font for its logo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rx78jj Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 And speaking of C3 Robin. There's this store at my local mall that still sells C3 playsets. Last time I checked there was the Chemical warehouse playset, the mini Batmobile, and Stealth Batman and Catwoman set as well as the Superman Darkseid set. They are priced at $6.99.

They were at the same price as the ones rx78jj was talking about, and there is still another Riddler and a Batgirl there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
