Congrats! It's a fantastic figure! Just be careful with the rubber body.

Hi! I'm fine thank you! How are you? I'm still collecting things but not really Hot Toys anymore. I'm only getting the new Hot Toys C3PO this year and that's it. I also have the 1/3 Deluxe Prime 1 Endoskeleton on pre order. I'm more into Lego atm. The UCS Star Wars stuff. And also sim racing/gaming. I'm a dad of 2 now so my spare time is limited and I'm satisfied with how my collection looks right now. And I have no more room left in my mancave because of all my hobbies haha.

Haha ehm.... nee ;) ik hou je in gedachten mocht het ooit zo ver komen.

@@dfuzeNL no worries haha. Heb er een in VS gevonden voor 370 incl verz. Ik vind deze 10x beter dan de recente huayutoys gold versie. Dus ik ga ervoor. Heb je ooit de schoenen nog vervangen, of overwogen om een phicen m31 body te gebruiken?

@@marinko6450 Congrats! Zijn lastig te vinden. De schoenen heb ik uiteindelijk nooit vervangen. Vond het wel prima zo haha. Heb er nu ook nog een hond naast gezet die erg lijkt op de hond uit de film. En ook nog een andere sculpt van een Robin Hood figuur. Heb een originele Hot Toys body gebruikt en die is prima in proportie.

@@dfuzeNL Ja de schoenen zijn dus wel screen-accurate dus all good denkik dan. Heb je recente fotos op een Insta ofzo? Ben wel benieuwd namelijk.

@@dfuzeNL Heb de mijne binnen! Ben super blij met de overall look, maar de kwaliteit van de zogenaamd lederen delen viel me zwaar tegen. Ik ben erg voorzichtig maar bij het minste aanraken bladderde alles af. Hoe heb je een nieuwe headsculpt erop gekregen, aangezien de stock met nek komt en veel custom hoofdjes zonder nek?

Hi Irman, it's a difficult choice because both have their pros and cons but if I had to make a choice today I'd go for the first one. In person the sculpt just looks more like Stallone. And it's from the first movie. But you honestly can't go wrong with either of them.

Thank you for your honest feedback. You are right. Couldn’t agree more. But, don’t you think the expendables 2 face sculpt supposed to be like that? Because, as we know he’s older from the first movie. So, the face should’ve be like that greedy and old right? Don’t you think?

That's awesome! It wasn't listed in the sales post? I've just picked up the Sideshow life size bust of this version of Boba. It's still my favorite look and I wanted something bigger to represent Boba in my collection :)

@@dfuzeNL nah it wasn’t, they said they bought it 2nd hand and had the signature already on the box. It looks genuine and I’ve shown to a few people community. Cost me £350, which felt worth it!

@@dfuzeNL life size??? Ooooh niiiice

@@benvinciblevince4067 350 is definitely worth it! Congrats man!

I'm sure you'll love it!

Yes they all have this feature.

Really love this look. One of my favorite suits to ever appear on film.

They're still holding up. I don't know about the newer version. That is a lot thinner. I wouldn't trust my Detolfs on them personally.

That's great to hear! Thank you! Was it hard to find all the necessary parts? This video is quite old now and I can imagine the parts being hard to come by nowadays.

@@dfuzeNL Yes I assembled him in 2015 after watching your video. I’ll send you a photo as I’m friends with you on FB.

@@Deadmanundertaker100Sure thing. I'd love to see it.

Difficult to find nowadays. You need the outfit, a body and a headsculpt. The body and head are pretty easy but the outfit is difficult to get a hold of.

That's a difficult one. They seem to be re-releasing just about everything from the DK line. I think the Joker is just bound to happen. I mean they just reissued the 1/4 Bats. The DX11 is still a great figure but the headsculpt could be better.

Fantastic choice! You're going to love it!

@@dfuzeNL yes that’s what everyone keep telling me, definitely a grail, only down is batteries don’t work and don’t know where to get them or which batteries are they 😅 but I don’t mind I’ll treasure it the same!!! And great video amazing detail!!!

Haven't noticed any. But I've got some thin plastic under the vest to prevent just that.

They're both fantastic figures. Can't go wrong with either of them. Enjoy it man!

If you leave it in a museum pose it should be fine for a long time. But it also depends on where you live. If the humidity is high chances are the rubber will crack or deteriorate faster than in a more dry environment.

@@dfuzeNL canada New Brunswick ?

@@jimmydesylva8404 Check your local humidity on a weather site or app. But I hear most horror stories coming out of places where it's very warm with high humidity like some Asian countries. I'm pretty sure Canada is fine. But it's still rubber in the end. It's good rubber but it's still rubber and it will crack one day. If you take care of your figures, don't leave them directly in the sun, not too sudden temperature changes in the room you keep them in etc. etc. You can enjoy them for many many years. Check the figure before you decide to buy, take good care of them and you should be fine for a long time. Nothing lasts forever so just enjoy them.

@@dfuzeNL allright thank you very much for taking your Time its very reassuring , you just earned a subscriber 🙂

Just the neck connector yes :)

I believe the eyes are different. But you could paint them black?

@@dfuzeNL Oh I see. Thank you brother I will try that :)

Thanks! Not really. I've retired from collecting somewhere last year. As other priorities and hobbies became more important to me. The passion just wasn't there anymore and I couldn't justify the prices to myself. I didn't have any problems with that before. So it was a sign. I've sold about 1/4 of my collection in order to finance a racing sim rig for my other hobby. I'm going to keep the rest of my collection for now as I still enjoy looking at it.

@@dfuzeNL Do you still have your mms 117 and Dx13's? They look so cool!! Great poses btw. I really enjoyed your channel when your posting. I used to look forward to seeing your new stuff and poses. Glad you still have some of your collection and that you have left your YT posts up. Take care.

@@Collection_Obsession Thanks! I had 2 dx13s and 2 mms117s and I've kept one of each. My quarter scale battle damaged T2 is gone too. Thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it. I really enjoyed making videos at that time.

Yes. They're called Kallax nowadays. They're slightly thinner than the ones I have.

Hi. Not the exact same seller but I've found the same head for you. www.ebay.com/itm/1-6-Scale-Russell-Ira-Crowe-Head-Sculpt-Gladiator-for-12-Action-Figure/352557107334?hash=item52160a8886:g:gIkAAOSwezRcEScF

I've used another head atm. From a Poptoys Robin Hood figure. Looks pretty good and much younger just like he was in the Gladiator movie.

@@dfuzeNL Thanks for your answers! :) On Ebay there are several sellers who sell that head, but they all publish almost the same photos in the product description, which causes me not to know which one to choose. I guess they will all be the same ...

yes brother, i love the dark shots and i myself run a videogame channel. i used to collect SW sideshow PFs, and now I collect saint seiya myth cloths (action figures with die cast metal armors). as someone that has been doing video content for 4 years now on different platforms, i think you have what it takes!!!!

I second this only been collecting a few years but I keep watching these video's incredible collection

Surprisingly well I must say. But I haven't moved it since. I also barely touch it only for occasional dusting. I'm still happy I've got it.

Good to hear 👍.

Are you thinking about picking one up?

Sold out at SideShow! I'm half thinking of getting into the 'Build the Terminator' part works but have seen mixed reports re. quality. Like you, I'd love the full scale but that's way beyond my pay grade 😁😁.

The whole set is quite difficult to get a hold of nowadays. The black armour version is a bit more common. If you can find it you could repaint it?

I checked eBay and actually found a set. www.ebay.com/itm/1-6-ACI-TOYS-ROMAN-GENERAL-MAXIMUS-GLADIATOR-ACCESSORIES-SET/193366631533?hash=item2d058ca46d:g:DkgAAOSweVZeXY2e

@@dfuzeNL Thanks but it would cost me over $300 to $400 cdn for it and I can't afford that .It sucks .There's got to be away to make the Armour ? I'm an Artist and can almost create anything .I just ordered a beautiful headscuplt for it

@@elisewest6524 Nobody's stopping you from creating your own armour. I'd say give it a go. In the end you'll have a 1 of a kind figure and it'll give you great satisfaction especially because you've created it yourself.
