Sorry this was a long time coming, it just slipped on my priorities and since I had to order button cells off Amazon it slid even further. Seriously, with no neck articulation, why not use a AA or AAA? I'm not a battery scientist, so I imagine there's some reason to make it a pain to have to...

Hmmm, pulled mine back out of the box after I cleared shelf space and since just sitting securely in there for a few days, his voice has crapped out like the YouTube video posted recently and the light is barely existent. I'm hoping it's just bad batteries.

Has anyone thought of a way to setup a secure stand for him? He stands well in a neutral pose, but I'm not brave enough to try a walking pose or anything too dynamic without being able to tie him down somehow. I haven't had any breakage issues, but I don't think he's going to stand up to much of...

Keep staring at Hero Ash and have been convinced he could be a bit better with some paint work. Like it's been mentioned before the eyebrows are often an issue, one of mine was painted too high and makes him look sort of like he's suffered some brain injury, his expression and emotion is damaged...

Oh yeah, I certainly don't want to come off like I was bad mouthing Palisades too badly...yeah, the case assortment was stupid, but they were in really dire straights at that time and were doing all they could to get people to buy product. I really miss Palisades, though I guess in the end it...

I was lucky enough to preorder series 2 early through Time & Space Toys, and when Palisades announced the stupid case numbers and how rare Ash would be, they arranged so that everyone who had preordered would get exactly what they had originally wanted to buy. I have no idea how many preorders...

Thanks for the shot of your photo studio and all the info! Great great stuff, once again. I've wanted to make a light box for a long while now, and now I'm even more motivated.

Outstanding photos! I'd love to get a little more info about your "studio", what are you using for a set, what kind of light setup. It'd be cool to see a shot of the shooting area itself.

Head swapping is super easy, they can almost pop off without any prep, but dipping them into some hot water for a minute or so makes it a cinch. S-Mart Ash's head, well the ball that fits into the neck, is just a little smaller than the ED2 heads, so it almost just kinda sits in place rather...

Hooray! I'm in Evil Dead heaven. Totally awesome. Henrietta is so gross but so cool, the face sculpt is horrifying and she just has such a great presence, looks like she flew right out of the movie. The giraffe neck head is sure a pain to get on though...I actually haven't managed to get it in...

My set arrives tomorrow! Very, very excited. That's too bad to hear about the left arm, but not totally unexpected. As much as I love poseability, I like a good balance between sculpt and articulation...not necessarily a Marvel Legends figure.

Darn, so if I want to do it, it's back to my original plan of cutting the harness carefully out of the shirt.

I have noticed that and mentioned it at another forum. I didn't get a reply back, but I'm assuming it has to do with the exposed body and the ab joint having greater range of movement. So I don't think it's an issue anymore than it is on Series 1 bodies, it's just easier to pose him in a way...

Agggh, I'm so weak. :lol I succumbed and ordered a set off eBay. $40 shipped, hard to beat that after 30 miles of gas round trip and taxes. If Ash is an absolute disaster, I'm capable enough to repaint him some. Expedited shipping, so I'll have them Tuesday at the latest, and hopefully Monday...

That's good to see. I was already pretty content with $50 or so, it seemed worth it over the ridiculous SDCC exclusive packs for $300 and having to eBay everything I didn't want. I'll definitely try to pick one up here soon. I'm so close to ordering a set of series 2 online, if only BBTS's...
