Hi all, I'm new to the 1/6 world!
2 weeks ago I found one of these TBLeague bodies locally second hand (for cheap!) and I've been eyeing more and more stuff for them.
So I've got a couple of questions:
1) I got the S29B, but shoes & clothing I take it, are almost impossible to find that will fit her 'naturally' .
I had a S27B (that was the cheap one that got me hooked, which I turned into a admittedly crappy looking robot.) that I tried altering the feet so that they would fit on the S29B, but they're so loose now!
What I need to know is: can a plastic to metal ball joint be 'tightened up' in any way?
2)I got a NR Toys/Vicky Secret Windbreaker set, but I had to 'trim' (read: cut) the sleeves to be short enough to fit the S29 arms. I saved the bits with a buckle/strap & would like to sew them back on, but I know nothing about sewing.
Would old fashioned sewing or a machine be better?
3)Props. I need STUFF for my figures, specifically records. Does anyone sell cheap (priced) 1/6 scale props/furniture that's not in China?
4) Heads. Is the female head in the pics too small, or just the right size? Are there any non celebrity male heads that match the skin tone of the M31 in the pics? I cut up a Halbe Brahms bust to slip on the M31 body. I tried painting it several times, I can't paint (obviously).
I call the S29 - Leonie __I haven't chosen a surname yet__ : Dirndl Cop.
I'm waiting on a Mr. Bean head for the M31 body that I'll try to alter to fit it, I know it's wrong!
And the rusty robot is made from a S27 (and a tool) that was literally twisted all around in its Silicone flesh. I had to cut it apart to "fix" it.
