dsmiles Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Is it just me or does Bete Noire's left-hand knife need to be greenstuffed so that it's not so flimsy? ...And which arm goes where on the Insidious Madness model? The card is of little use, there. ...And did anyone else have to free Misaki's back foot from her dress to get her to fit on her rock properly? ...And how in the hell do I put that second Gaki's head together? Jus' sayin'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borzag Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Is it just me or does Bete Noire's left-hand knife need to be greenstuffed so that it's not so flimsy? THIS. Mine broke within 15 mins of opening the blister. I replaced it with an extra-chunky Skaven blade (6th ed plastics) so I'm not overly worried now, but oh my god that knife's a pain. Especially given that there's flash on it. Damned if you do, damned if you don't... The one that really had me worried for a while was the jug/banjo Gremlin though. I had to pin his arm on, and in order to find a thin enough pin I had to use part of the chuck from the same bit I'd used to drill it in the first place.... fun times.

ispep Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 I feel the Insidious Madness is the worst model in the entire Wyrd product catalog. I'd say just stick whichever arm wherever you want on it, it will look awful either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Mine came out OK.. though I might have sawn it in half and added tentacles from the sewer set. I had the same issue with Bete's knife I think there might be an issue with the mold on that knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sholto Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 You are right about Misaki - I moaned about that on my blog. Hellish to assemble in almost every way, but still a stunning figure once you're done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huang Da Wei Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 mine have all been ok with the exception of punk zombies, the blades are so thin and delicate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike3838 Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 I think the Madness arms are pretty much interchangeable. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsmiles Posted September 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Mine came out OK.. though I might have sawn it in half and added tentacles from the sewer set.TENTACLES!!! Why didn't I think of that?!?!? AAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!! By the way, Ratty, that insidious madness is legen... ... ...wait for it... ... ...DARY! And those are Gaki arms, aren't they? @Sholto: I managed to get her on her base, and her arm went on fine (with a little filler), but I may have to remove and re-paint her head, and file off bits of her neck. I don't like the way it went on. I'm going to try to leave Bete's knife as-is. I haven't broken it yet, so I'm just going to see what happens.

fritz the cat Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 for my bete I just bent the arm down slightly so the end of the knife made contact with her dress and then glued it down to give it more support, its solid enough now and the slight tweak in the positioning i think looks good.

Issalbotproto Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 I personally am amazed my Bete's knife isn't broken yet AND that My Judges chain still hasn't broken off either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistycalla71 Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 My heavens my Bete's right handed blade the minute Ihad her out of the clam I glued it back on with the gel super glue, just drew a line of glue down the blade from the base creating a raised rib on its center. Its holding like a champ. In fact I would highly suggest to anyone tried of their super glue going on the runs that using the geled form is far more solid since its a semi-exposy form allows it to gap fill and re-enforce the normal super glue when i use. At anyrate it saved my Killjoy hook and viki blade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsmiles Posted October 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 My next one is getting an upgrade. Arms and tentacles! (I'd show a pic of the first one, but I entered it in the Rotten Harvest.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fritz the cat Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Anyone know how sturdy the dead rider is? I love the look of the model, but I worry about it in terms of durability (both the scythe and the ankles) Also how is it broken down into parts (I have nightmares that the scythe head is somehow a seperate piece) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
