I like it G. 

There was a mold line on the mt-m6 i built by bandai. It was on a small hidden part so really not a big deal. Flaws are rare though in my experience. 

Does the woody model have different mouths?  Or different faces or heads or something to get the different expressions?

Ted,

Yes, Woody has three interchangeable faces.  The eyes are hard to adjust from the outside, and they tend to either stick or go floppy.  I need to figure out a fix for that.

I'd have made it into a bullet hole.  Or stuck an arrow in it.  After all, he is a cowboy!  The way you have him posed in that first picture, it looks like he's staring in disbelief at a bullet hole in his hat.

Nice fix.  He could say "there's a hole in my hat" along with "there's a snake in my boot"

Something that took me a long time to notice was that Woody’s holster is empty!  Maybe it was a conscious design decision by Pixar in the interest of kid friendliness.

In any case, he is not equipped to deal with bandits, injuns or rattlesnakes.

That’s why he has backup.

And just in case...

Nobody messes with the law in this town.

G,

I don't like it, looks too much like a toy...

LOL! Ha, outstanding job on patching that hole!

G,

Well, there’s a story behind that...

Real G

I hope everyone did not have fever this Saturday night.  Stay alive.

 

Three thumbs up for clever!

But I fear that stupid song will be looping in my head for a day or two now.

'OH NOOS WOODIE GOT THE PIAT!!! WE'RE ALL DOOMED!!! '

Now where’s that no-good lazy space toy?

Greg,

I apologize for sending you back to the Disco Inferno.  I myself was almost a little too young to disco, but old enough to remember that silly era.

But who am I to criticize, as I spent my youth on equally silly designer jeans and Members Only jackets.

To be honest, I sort of liked disco. It was catchy. And unlike rap and hip-hop, it had the common decency to ride into the horizon when it's time was over.

Oh, and I miss my Member's Only jacket, odd you'd mention that.

Oho! I bet a LEGO pistol would fit his holster just fine!

Disco?

        Dya mean like the Disco-Volante in the James Bond movie? Oh! Yer talkin about the Music. And those ubiquitus ceiling Mirror Balls. Darned things gave me a headache. Interesting era that was!

“Disco is NOT dead!  Disco is LIFE!”

Woody can now keep an eye on things.

The eye has to be polished for that creepy, lifelike feel.  Watch out Syd, the toys are watching.  Alllllways watching.

Lol, Woody needs an eye-patch until you get the other eye repaired... 

Snake 'Woody' Plissken in 'Escape From the Toy Box' 

Eye looks good!

Greg - Certainly not FINEscale modeling; more like FUNscale modeling!  I need more fun versus fine in my life.

Gamera - OK you troublemaker, now I gotta make an eye patch!

The CA glue set weird in the other eye and as a result I have to find another way to infill the irises.  Maybe I used a cheapo knockoff CA brand.  Zap-A-Gap never shrank and collapsed on me.

Now the sheriff can keep BOTH eyes on the bad guys!

They are a nice improvement, I think.

The second eye got filled in with that UV curing resin kit from those "As Seen on TV" ads, since I was having severe problems with slow curing CA that developed strange crinkles and bubbles that collapsed.  I ruined a pair of eyes that way.  The UV resin works a treat, sands easily, and really does cure in seconds.  A cousin of mine is a dentist, and he gave me a professional grade UV light used in dental work, which has more UV "horsepower".  I'll try it out on all the rest of the eyes.

That's a BIG improvement!!! 

Great job and fix!  Do you have Buzz?  

InternationalRescue

Great job and fix!  Do you have Buzz?  

 

I sure do!  He'll come in to help with the space/sci-fi builds.  Coincidentally, I was looking over Buzz's parts last night to see what needed doing.  An LED laser will NOT be fitted, as the arm is too small to accomodate a battery.  He will get the "starry eyes" modification though.

Favorite thread.  :)

Cool, looking forward to Buzz getting his new peepers...

SPACE RANGER peepers!  To keep an ever vigilant watch for Zurg and and the Ko-Dan armada... Oh wrong space army.  My bad.  I’d better verify what enemy force we are supposed to be looking out for with Star Command.
