Is peter is looking at the ceeling?

Here's my GB

Very cool!

Just have to be really careful and work it in slowly, pull the loop over the trap with your fingers don't just try and force it. I unplugged the pedal while I was doing it so it wasn't in the way.

Thanks, yeah i took the darn strap off slowly initially but it still tore a bit...

So, where do you hang the pedal half?

Could i see a side or back shot?

Much appreciated!

One other thing...is anyone else having a problem with the decals coming off?

Is there a way to adhere them without messing up the sticker?

No problem with decals so far. Hope that doesn't become an issue.

There is one on the back of the proton pack, that wraps around...keep unsticking and there is one on the wand that is doing the same...it's really annoying...i suppose some glue would work.

Wow. Good luck man. Hopefully some of the masterful customizers on this board could help you.

I know most people plan on switching to custom heads, Spenser or otherwise, but anybody else pretty satisfied with the Mattel Venkman sculpt? After the blow drying adjustment it really does have a good Murray likeness. I'd gotten a Venkman Spenser sculpt in anticipation of switching Mattel's out, but now I'm thinking of bashing Spenser's sculpt into Carl Spackler instead. (The expression's wrong but I don't think anyone would mistake who he's supposed to be)

just recieved my venkman ( in the uk). really wasnt expecting this one as soon as this, and didnt get caught with any custom charges this time. just finished swapping bodies and adding vartel's head. minor futzing needed but im very happy with this set so far!

What's this vartel's head folks are talking about? I've done a search but no images.

So no one has any idea how to restick the stickers that seem to come off all the time on my venkman...i don't want to wreck them.

Thanks!

Double sided tape?
Craft glue? ...

 

[chalkyYT]

they look like they might be able to be heat pressed or ironed back on but i couldnt say for certain

 

[klocket]

Thanks for the ideas guys...i was also thinking of getting some spray adhesive, the industrial kind...i haven't been to the craft store to see if maybe there is a brush on thin adhesive...i assume there must be something, but Venkman's sticker is making me crazy...although not as big of issue, i sum it up to being like the wet abs on DX02 Bats...everyday, reapply...but actually within minutes it's almost off again.

i will figure it out, i am sure of it.

heres my set of ghostbusters so far, elbow pads are still to be added to peter and egon, ill wait until i get winston before i sort that out. overall im really pleased with these, a bit of minor futzing required but vartel's heads and a ttl body make a significant improvement i think.

Your ghostbusters are incredible!!!!!!!! Personally i love Vartal's Ray and Egon!

 

[Eamon]

Not sure I like those if I'm being honest.

There's very good details but over all I personally think they are a bit weak.

Ray looks the best I think.
But I don't remember the guys have that much tan!

haha, yeh i have to admit i did paint them a bit more 'orangey' then i should have done, but when i realised i didnt have the will power to redo them. the colour is better in person tho so its not too big of an issue for me. in the hands of a good painter these sculpts full potential can be shown, unfortunately, im still fairly new to this so my skills arent quite up to scratch yet so dont le that put u off!

any of you guys have an extra PKE meter to sell?
