    Repro Parts ?

    Has any one ever made repro hands/feet for the time traveler other than Palisades ?

    Some of the Embassy gang used to try to cast them occasionally in resin. but results were not successful. They're too tiny to cast well, and generally need to be flexible to work properly.

    Krylon Fusion white paint works well if you have lighter-colored Palisades hands and feet that you can repaint. The glow green hands & feet from the Dynamic Forces Time Traveler exclusive repaint well.

      Hmmmm....

      I used to do hands; I'd use a rigid resin for the buff and a squishy one for the hand. But I haven't done it for a while. (They ARE a pain to make.)

        I wish that someone would produce hands/feet also.....I've got a couple of vintage Time Travelers that need replacement hands/feet.

        Do the Palisade's hands/feet fit decently?

          They're okay-ish...Some wrist bands are cracked, however.
