    This movie terrified me when I was a kid. Probably should’ve waited a few more years to watch it. 😂 Thanks for the review, Spot! I’ve been watching your videos for over a decade now. I appreciate all your hard work.

    Got this for Christmas it’s a great figure and hats off to NECA for attempting it but they made it overly complicated and fragile. Luckily nothing broke on mine when putting it together but it was difficult. Got it put together and on display now I’ll never touch it again lol.

    Just got it. And no problems at all with mine. All it needs is some hot air with a hair-dryer to loosen the stiff parts of the figures along with the peg holes. Took me about an hour to put these two together. Excellent depiction of this mutant monster in action figure form in my humble opinion. NECA delivered for me. Hope they make more monsters from this movie. NECA's really good at hideous deformed beings.

  • @buzzsawgr81
    @buzzsawgr81 Рік тому +3

    one thing you could do for the big arms piece, if you can't safely get the ball peg out of that other piece is to go to a hardware store and see if you can find some of those pegs that you use to rest shelves on when putting together a shelf unit, and if the peg is the right size then it should just go in the hole and then plug in the arms piece. when I get around to putting mine together I might try this myself. (I wish I could post pics so I could show you exactly what I'm talking about)...and then I finish the video and that's basically what you did. lol.

  • @DazDaz105
    @DazDaz105 Рік тому +11

    You have to be patient when building it up.
    I can recommend running the parts with sockets under hot water as you fit them together as the ball joints sometimes bend. Luckily none of mine snapped.

    Thankfully, didn't have any issues with mine. I did use a hair dryer to get things warmed up for popping things into place though. That third peg opening on the "arms" section is actually for the leg that comes off that ball joint area. You pop it off, then remove the bottom part and use the top "spikey" leg to plug into that Arm section.
