Doons Dungeon: December 2010

Friday 10 December 2010

Been busy of late but had chance to take some pictures the other day. Thought I'd post some pics.

The amazing War Machine from Hot Toys, as seen in the movie Iron Man 2.
Click the pictures to enlarge em ;)

Also been playing around with Soldier Stories SAD ver 2 night ops figures.

And finally a little pic I took of Hot Toys Whiplash, as seen in the movie Iron Man 2.

Top tips for collecting figures

1) Be wary of counterfeits. Always check listings for phrases like 'chinese version' - if it says this, it's probably not authentic. A surprisingly low price is a good indicator too.
2) Joints on new figures can be stiff - don't force them, because they could snap. Instead hairdry the joints or put the figure on a radiator for a while.
3) When changing out hands on figures be patient. Wobble the hand from side to side rather than gripping tight and yanking.
4) Carefully check reviews for companies where you can pay a deposit to pre-order figures. Don't lose money on a dodgy company!
