What do you think about the black palace blaster for lando general ?

Is it only me who have big problems with keeping the blaster in the hands on lando general ?

Ok it is a cool blaster, but I think it is to big for him.

Same problem here - the shape of the gun grip just doesn't suit the hand mold.

I am thinking what the **** were Kenner thinking when they created that figure :? Ok he is a cool figure but the blaster does not match the hand mold :shock:
 
I have a few figures that are rubbish at holding their weapons. However, a small discrete spot of Blu-tac on the figure's palm is usually your friend :)

True, quite frankly hands weren't Kenners strong suit! Many figures are woeful at holding their weapons - try getting Amanaman to hold that staff.

Ah, well the trick there is to make him use both hands:

Apologies for the crap photo. It's the only one I had to hand! :)

I do not have problems with that many figures, but I have a few that have problems with weapons :(

What figures do you have problems with ?

I'm not at home at present, but from memory, I'm pretty sure my Leia Hoth and Han Hoth wouldn't be holding anything were it not for good old Blu-tac (my display Han Hoth is not one of the moulds with a closed hand, clearly!) :)

Oh yes Han Hoth, I also have some problems with some of mine, but not all of them. Leia Hoth is not a problem for me with weapon :D

Right, I've just checked and the figures which have Blu-tac assistance in my cabinet are Takara Stormtrooper, Large Head Han, Han Hoth, Lobot, Leia Hoth, Imperial Commander and Lando General... So more than I thought! My Luke Bespins hold their weapons OK, but my Luke Jedis have to hold their lightsabers by the thick edge of the hilt, rather than the thin, which my Bespins get away with :-D

Funny that we do not have the same problems with the same figures :shock: :lol:

I do not have a takara stormie yet so I can't write about problems with that one yet :(

But I have a lot of solo large head, ok not the best hand but no problems there for me there. Maybe it is the blaster, some rebel blasters have a bigger
handle than others :? I have problems with some solo Hoth so maybe I have the same problem with the handle on a rebel blaster :? I also do not have problems with any of my lobot figures. No problems here with any of my leia hoth or imperial commander.

But lando general yes big problems. Luke jedi and luke bespin problems with some of them.
 
Becareful i forced a weapon into a wbg hand and it chipped the paint :?

Also yak faces dont like those pikes. There hands are prone too chipping!

Also be careful with with solo trenchcoat, the hands are not that happy with blasters :wink:
 
Luke bespin is only supposed to hold one weapon at a time he realises that in ESB. :lol:

Should find the person who set them all up for the card back photos they seemed to master all of them.
