You can get sort of close with Classics Cyclops, Box-set Rogue, Beast Box set, Gambit box set, Classics Storm White Outfit, Jean Grey Rockett Wave, Bishop Apoc Wave, Jubilee BAF, Wolverine Box Set. So yeah I guess the X-men Box Set from 2003 haha.

i have an old set of X-men figures from the toy biz from that time period they look cool, but nothing i would want to take out and put on my shelf...

What more is there to tell?

Either heat the leg up with a hair dryer or dip it in hot water for about a minute or two. Then run cold water over it. That is it.

[ultraman zoffy]

Like Dr. Kain said, it really is as simple as it sounds. There's the obvious bits about not burning your fingers off, but not much else to tell.

Like everybody has said it's pretty straight forward but if you're needing some visual guides go to Figure Realm's tutorial section (you can google this). Most of what you'll see will be about customizing figures but they do have several pages for repairing them. Check it out.

...wrap the leg in cellophane before dipping it into hot water if you're worried about paint damage.

[T16skyhopp]

or use a hair dryer

Maybe I haven't used hot enough water, but I have never had any issue with a figure in hot water.

[donmeca2020]

i might try the hairdryer first..... seems abit easier. my mom has one of those old school hairdryers that can get very hot as well.

here's some better pics of the leg problem

[K Dubious]

I always use a heat gun/blow dryer so you should be good with that option. I would also have a glass of ice water to dip it in once you get it back in shape.

My only concern based on the pic is that it could have a broken peg. If that is the case and you don't have any extra legs that have a black peg you may be SOL.

yea i never modded or did a custom figure before. Sooo if it doesnt work when i give it a try i will be SOL. therefore i'll have to go hunt down another superior. sucks cause BBTS had them for sale real cheap now there sold out.

im sure walgreens or another place has them. this wave has been floating around for awhile now.

If it is a broken peg, I'm sure someone one this site that follows this thread will see you are in need of a black peg and be able to help you out. I myself only collect/customize 3.75" with a sprinkle of 6" so I don't have one, but any customizer should have an abundance of these.

Plus they are easy to replace just heat up the leg and pop them out.

[Kirathis]

Based on those last pictures, the knee joint looks like it is in good shape. It looks like the problem may actually be with the interior side of the bottom half of the leg. As K Dubious mentioned, there may be a broken peg.

Try focusing the heat on that part of the leg and see if you can bend it back in some using the methods others have mentioned.

For UK collectors that comic ML Guardians of the galaxy case is up for pre-order at forbidden planet.com

10$ at Wal Mart online. Go to a TRU and have them price match the online price. As long as it is in stock they should have no problem.

Brilliant, cheers for that! Although the £112 price tag is not enticing in the slightest. It's not so much the recycled parts as it is that Groot looks like a McDonald's toy with that crummy paint app.

i already have the movie figures , and will get new ones with the new movie when it comes out if they're better

[jwyss234]

Dorkside has the Hulkbuster wave listed but they're not taking preorders just yet. I'd say BBTS and Amazon will have their preorders up soon too.

They have preorders for the three of them individually.
