Re: UPDATE on my F14 pilots
Hi any chance of sculpting the helmet closer to the F-14's instead of using the F-16 and F-18 pilot's? Also I think the vest molded on with the accessories would be good enough. Overall this looks promising!

I only collect 3 3/4 inch figures and always thought I would try to make the Sideshow figures into this scale. I didn't really set about doing it until I saw 'WeaponXcustom's POC Dusty'. His w...

C.I.A. S.A.D. Night Ops Squad by vince_chua
Hi everyone, I finally finished my 5 member C.I.A. S.A.D. Night Ops. The Squad leader and the assault member are actually based on the 1:6 scale toys from SoldierStory. The rest are mix and match. http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/9153/ciasadnightopssquad.jpg http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/4287...

Re: Is there interest in a step ladder for the F-14 ? 2nd p
I'm interested only if I can get that door to open. Right now it is glued shut by JSI (No idea why they do things like this???) Anybody know how to get it open?
If it opens, I'm interested in a functional one.

Re: Pizza Guys Ladders
Nathan has been known for the many things he has come up with, i.e, his stands etc. I just received his new ladders for my F-16s and F-18s and all I can say is, They are Fantastic. For those who have lost or misplaced their original factory ladders, his are by far so much better looking than the or...

Re: F16 & F18 Boarding ladders
Received the ladders yesterday. My jaws dropped to the floor. It is amazing to see so much details put into them. There are 'rivets' which the photos couldn't show.
Now my 2 'ladderless' planes are 'complete'.
Once again THANK YOU Nathan!!!

Some of the BBI heads can fit on the 21st Century XD bodies. Hi Razor17019, thanks for the info but I find the 21st Century bodies have very bad legs. And I only have the figures that come with the humvee and the Super Cobra. Maybe the head on the BBI figures? I'm actually thinking of getting more ...

Question Regarding Customizing BBI Figures
Hi all,
I'm new to the BBI Figures and I want to swap parts for them.
Can I just boil the figure and pull out its head and Shoulder joints or are there other methods?
Please advice.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Vince
