I eat chili w/beans...
... Good to know in case I move to Texas (which I've actually considered doing several times).Hope you had a better trip on the way home, and that you made it back safely!
He's also a member on here.
I know... I "friended" him on here earlier last year... :animal:
mail came again today, still no dice. I know you just got back, but could check with the post office on the hold up as soon as you can. It's been in the mail system since August.
This is why I always tell you, when burying your dead hookers in the desert, HAVE A BACKUP PLAN!

Has anyone (Jesse included) started casting the 2-part hands? Like from the 30th/POC Snake Eyes, Duke, Law, etc?
Would anyone be interested in this if Jesse wanted to cast and sell it?

Yeah they did. The only thing that's the same is the body. The cage is different.
Yeah, if it was scaled down...as is, it seems a bit too thick...needs to taper more towards the head too...
*Snicker*
What other time have you said that? I thought you were a "bigger is better" kind of gal?
Dumb question, but they all start to look the same to me. Usually I'm good with it, but I think I'm having a 'tard day.
Can someone help me out on which head is the ScarJo head on TJ's site? And what number goggles go with the DG helmets?
I'm also looking for a new pilot helmet for Slipstream, so I can put a set of goggles on top like the vintage figure (although an updated helmet would be preferred) because I hate the lazy 25th kitbash. Any suggestions from TJ's catalog?

Dremel out the Slipstream head, and cut off the goggles...then use a set of para viper goggles in their place...they can be moved over the face and on top of the helmet...looks AWESOME!
H52
A20 maybe. I don't think I see the proper goggles on there.
HH53 is the closest to a jet jockey's flight helmet on there.
I know, I thought about that... I just want something less... Tripwire. I hate Tripwire, too, btw. If I were to list a top ten "needs redesigning" list, I'd put Tripwire at the top. His 25th figure was awful.
Thanks KT. I think I actually got that head in my as-yet-delivered order, then. I thought it was the ScarJo head, but the chin looked pointy. Fucking USPS limbo.
A20 is a backpack though? Did you mean 24 or 25? I have to look up the ones I got from him, I think they're actually Para-Viper goggles. I think those were 25. 24 look to be the ones that came with POC Hawk. There's also A11, but those don't seem to have a strap? Not sure who those are from...
I think I snagged that helmet, so that's cool if I did. I was just looking at that one, and HH52. Paired with Para-Viper goggles, would that look dumb?
25 is what I meant, but they definitely aren't P-V goggles. I'm thinking A-V/Snowbunny Destro. A11 are Shock Trooper's.
I don't care for the whole flight helmet/goggles thing past WWII/Korea, but it's not the worst combo I've heard of. The P-V goggles are useless otherwise.
I need to go find my set of Dusty goggles, or go see if DG Duke comes with them. Don't believe he does.

DG Duke does not. I have one set of goggles on my POC Dusty, and the other on Short-Fuze.
Those goggles would've really sweetened the deal with that DG Duke. They look great and stay on the fucking helmet, too.

Better than the Zap belt and only one pistol. If there is one thing dumber than 2 pistol holsters on a figure it's 2 and only one pistol included. Not like there aren't options to fill them, but that's not the point.
Anyhoo, the Dusty goggles fit on the big helmets, and the strap theoretically could be cut down and glued on to smaller 'uns.

The Zap pistol doesn't even fit in the DG holster! It falls out. Although I think that I never had a problem with it on the original Zap mold. Not sure what they did to the mold, but I swapped out the existing DG pistol for 25th "Snake Eyes"/greenshirt pistols so they'd quit falling out every other breath.
This is the kinder egg toy camera I have...perfectly scaled to Joes AND fits in their hands!

Yeah, it's not permanently sculpted to him...it's removable...though it has a little peg that pegs to his hand, but I'll leave it on and up to whoever might buy it to remove...could be useful...
When he has the time and if he wants to shrink it down then I'm sure he'll mention something. Let's let him get done the projects he has going on before everyone wants to just send him items.
