yours too? Maybe it's a design flaw? I mean it would work great if it would get hit in more spots than just the l/rt

nice mech

Nice paint job.  But doesn't this one seem a bit "subdued" among the Spartans?

Ha Ha Ha! Night Stalker you see that the Spartans are a colorful Folk. Well each Spartan gets to paint its Mech as they want. No two are the same. I tend to avoid the Cannon Paint Jobs. Plenty of folks doing that out there already. The Mech lets me know what it wants to look like.  M-Rex I made the Hawaiian shirt from the skins of Tiny Fallen Toaster Worshipers.

Quick question... Have any of you had a problem keeping that mini on it's feet? I can't seem to keep mine on it's feet.

Grunt213 glue the Mech to a Lead Base. I also have a bunch of Mech parts the Devastator is running over, it is adding weight to the base, I think. Having a Pilot that can drive also helps.  ;D

Thanks. Just ended up gluing a large washer to the bottom of the base... I know... ghetto.

I cheat and repose the leg, a jewlers saw and some modeling putty make the entire running pose go away. Course its now got a walking pose.

Washers and Jewler's Saws and Green Stuff are all good tools for Mech happiness. I just used a Washer for an ReSeen Marauder Base. Hey it works. No ghetto in my book. It would be great if they put a Base in the Blister with the Figure anyway, that way we would always have a base to stand on.  :)
