In regards to the hip joint, theres a mechanism to bring the hips further down, enabling mr.lupus to kick almost all the way to the forehead. Great for crouching poses.
@lewisle33012 жыл бұрын
The drop-down mechanism extends the range a little bit (about 30 degrees more or so), he can't crouch or kick all the way up to his head. But still, more than enough for a buffy and pointy gundam like Barbie.

To me the epicness of Barbatos Lupus is that it's condensed in about 5 minutes in the whole IBO storyline. He storms the battlefield and it's immediately full power against the legendary mobile armor Hashmal. Gets wrecked and is never seen again, only to come back as Lupus Rex. That's the beauty of a rare jam.

for tightening loose joints on my stuff I usually use a light small amount of modpog mix water to seep into joints. But its risky if the figure has weak materials. Modpog is usually used to seal acrylic and paints, also adds protection layer to surface of toy paints. But it is safer to use clear acrylic with water.
@ligmasugmakenya1142 жыл бұрын
The price difference between Lupus and Rex is actually insane. Like $300+ for a figure slightly bigger than a high grade. I guess you are paying for quality and accessories though. I hope they make a Hashmal for this line.

I had the same issues with mine with the ball joint shoulders. You can pull them off, just be careful when doing so. I recommend using nail polish on both the socket and the ball to thicken them up, once you do that it 100% fixs it and tightens them while retaining its mobility.

"The Lupus is just so much more savage and regal-looking than the just savage looking Rex" Ironic, since Rex means "King" which would imply that it should have more regality. I somehow agree, especially with this particular version. The symmetry, red shoulders and non-over the top-ness really does make it look more... Graceful? Than the wild, beast-looking Rex.

It'd be perfect if the wrists weren't so loose. If you guys have any suggestions I would love to hear them but the usual super glue on the joint doesn't work since the hands are swappable. So unless you aren't going to swap the hands for ages, you just end up scrapping the glue off when you swap the hands. There are also awful nub marks on the weapons, the mortars being the worst offender. I do think it's an improvement over the Rex, but the floppy hands just ruin the fun of all it's weapons.
