Same lol
They all look great but I have to say Cloud still stands out. Face, hair, body type, outfit look perfect. Look at the tailoring on his pants!Just a quick message, i received my Zack from Kit too, Perfect condition as always 0 damage.
As i thought my Zack's neck have a "problem" too
But i fix it in 5 seconds with Patafix (don't know it it's the same name in English)
Seriously guys, don't waste your time to try to pulled out the plug (and maybe damage the figure)
Just use patafix, there is nothing more easy and fast, and the head is perfectly fixed.
I didn't pose him yet, or change arms it's just to show you out of box ^^'
Besides, is it normal that it has the articulated arms and not the seamless arms out of the box? Cloud already had seamless arms.
Before to put seamless arms, I want to try to do a dynamic pose with the articulated arms while trying to hide the joints (if you have idea i take it)
And for the record, Zack's arms look a bit bigger than Cloud's, but I think we can use them of him
Man. It was so much work getting the connector out. I couldn't settle for the sticky tac method. I just absolutely destroyed the connector and replaced it with a spare I had. The glue for his arm is still drying so pardon the amputee Zack photo but yea, the neck is better now. Can't wait to take better photos soon.
Agreed, a much less invasive method I hadn't thought of. Thankully, I'm satisfied with him now, but it was a bit disheartening being so excited only to be confronted with problems right from the start. Still worried about the staining on AC Cloud, though.
Does that bother anyone else? Like, on Zack, it's only areas that are covered by his shirt. Neck, armpits, and I'm sure all over his torso. For him, it doesn't matter, as his clothes hide those stains. But AC Cloud literally features a removable sleeve to showcase his bare arm, and that worries me. I prefer the look of his outfit with the sleeve, so I probably won't be removing it, but it feels like a useless feature if he's going to arrive with stained arms/body.Yes, true. I'm familiar with washing seamless bodies and cornstarching them for preservation, but the issue here is that there is an abundance of dye remaining in the clothing and it's transferring to the body and seamless arms. Just worries me for AC Cloud, is all. I haven't tried washing it out but I presume it's stained the material. Not trying to sound so pessimistic, I apologize for that. Very happy with Zack now that he's all fixed up! Photos tomorrow.
The idea is to use putty on the neck connector and push the head back down on it (hearing the 'pop' sound) so that it is secured and tight but now with a slight height added to it due to the extra material.
No worries. Mine was stained upon arrival unfortunately, but seeing as he will never see light of day outside his familiar costume, there's no point for me to worry about it. Just thought I'd bring up my ever increasing worry for Cloud
Very good point. This is what I do for my seamless dolls - I wrap the limbs in Saran wrap that will be covered by dark clothing, if the clothing isn't washed beforehand anyways. I must have messed up with the sticky tac idea, maybe I didn't put enough, but it resulted in a wobbly, insecure head. Happy with how he is now, though. So excited for more releases, we should see a new PO soon, no?
