Tricks & Tips for Hot Toys Figure Assembly
I thought it'd be nice to put together a thread where everyone can share some tips and tricks for putting together Hot Toys figures. It can be tricky especially if you are a first-timer cause though these figures are cool, some parts are delicate.
I'll start with some but leave a lot of stuff open.
-FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS: It is very important you follow Hot Toys directions at least until you feel confident enough to try something different.I personally had some trouble jumping ahead of myself on my Scar Pred until I sat back and looked at the directions in greater detail.
-BE PATIENT & TAKE YOUR TIME: Being patient and not rushing is important.I know this might also sound weird,but just make sure you're relaxed as well.If you get frustrated,you will break something. Hot Toys figures can take an hour to completely assembly perfectly.
Anyone else got some stuff to share?

Re: Tricks & Tips for Hot Toys Figure Assembly
The instructions I find are not that helpful. The main thing for at least the Predator's I find is put the whole body together first with the black neck gaurd and head(minus hands and feet of course) then just be careful with the amor and body netting. Oh and thier weapons are sharp enough to cut human skin BE CAREFUL.

Re: Tricks & Tips for Hot Toys Figure Assembly
This thread will definitely come in handy for me in a few months when I put my preds together.
