Hey Fellas,

Regarding Trailmaster Jacket....it does close...but needs some force to do so....this is what I did...using my left thumb to hold buckle side tight against Banes body, thumb just a bit below actual buckle so buckle is ready to accept other end of strap....with right hand I used pliers and slowly closed both ends together until they meet and y can slip end with pliers into buckle (with other fingers behind bane i adjusted back of belt to give me some leeway at front...once u get end into buckle u can easily use pliers again to tighten and adjust...but be careful...jacket material is very fine. Hope I made some sort of sense

Got it to wrap around. Thanks for the great tip buddy. Any of you guys who haven't managed to get the belt to fit on the trailmaster try it this way. I'm still debating over whether or not to make my own belt and use there buckle. It looks kind of unnatural to me with the belt so tight.

It certainly takes on a unique look. It's a shame Hot Toys never included this jacket and other accessories. Probably another version due since that was held back?

If MC toys was smart(or aware) they'd be making a few minor changes and releasing a Bane upgrade set. The tailoring is pretty good as is so if they made the belt bigger and dyed it dark brown I'm sure they'd sell a hell of a lot better than they're selling now as I Am Legend sets. Maybe include some baggier pants, a DCS vest and a motorcycle helmet.

A few picks with a Hot toys Dutch body. I think this version is a keeper. I had to hollow out the head to make it set down low on the body. I hate this vest! There is way too much stuff going on to pull and tuck.

Ahhhnold's body had bad case of giraffe neck.

Hope that Dutch body doesn't split, crack or disintegrate in a few years.

That Stock Exchange Bane is off the hook! But I have to ask, why is his pants dark blue on one and charcoal gray on the other? He's wearing the same pants.

I've had it for over 2 years and still fresh like new. I've been using it on a Thor for a year now, repurposed it for this. I've found some petroleum jelly on the arms and torso has kept it soft and no signs of cracking.

I agree with you Apparently he's wearing the same pants.
But it was uninteresting making same color pants,

Hello Dr. Odd.
Both are Soldier story FCS pants

 

[menoseloso]

Have any of you guys ever used a leather dye called Eco-Flo? I was at hobby lobby getting some leather for the belt I'm going to make and saw this stuff on sale for pretty cheap so I got a dark brown. I've never dyed leather before but does anyone know if this will work? Is there anything I need to do before I change the color? Or would just painting it be a better solution.

 

[Cobraka22]

Amazing job shiro! I did the same in making 2 different pants as I felt they looked so different in each scene. I coulda swore before going back and re watching when the blu ray came out that he wore 2 different pants.

I also enjoy having a different look too! Your stock exchange bane is super impressive, for whatever reason his head and neck area has the illusion they are bigger/wider which I think looks better haha.

Sure look at his mask one looks black and one looks navy. Well don't help am colour blind but even I can see that
