    Jerks beef with Ten Bears

    Gotta say, Piecemaker makes some quality stuff. Once I got the body assembled (thanks for the tips - boiling the modified arms and legs made 'em easy as silk to put on the ZICA body!), the rest of the assembly was cake. Only did a test fitting as I've got some painting to do (gonna put a gloss white finish on the parts to match the movie version - trust me, though, the parts are just fine the way Piecemaker makes 'em; I'm just overly obsessed with detail! :D).

    When the kits become available again, BUY. You WON'T be disappointed.

No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

        Here's hoping! The details on the helmet are gonna be fun - all those little lines on the sides.

          I used a toothpick to apply the paint into the lines.

            This tread inspired a comic.

              I sensed a disturbance in The Force.....or it may of just been my dog waking me up to go outside and do his thing.

              Either way,That comic is Awesome!!! I it. Thanks for posting it.

                  ^^^ Thank you. I was wondering who won that auction. Glad to see Brick and the Squeeze went to a good home. I miss staring at them, lol.


                  Since this got bumped up.....When I first started these kits, I really fell short of getting one "to anyone that wants one". The response was overwhelming and I got burnt out after the first dozen or so.

                  I am sorry for that and I know some people were disappointed. I had a few inquiries here recently. I am going to be making some more in the near future and I am hoping to get a kit to some more people.

                    ^^ I can absolutely see how you'd get burned out doing stuff in bulk.
                    You have a LOT of molds and pieces in that kit...that takes some time.
                    Then all the trim work...wow.

                      I'd definitely be interested in a trooper kit and Darth Vader, too.

                        I'd take a pair if the price is right. Also interested in Vader.

                              ^^^ Take some advice from one of the most annoying guys/commercials on TV and you will find all kinds of Stormtrooper/Stormtoother pics here.

                                I too would be interested in a Stormtrooper kit, a Darth Vader kit and a Boba Fett kit, if you make Fett kits too.
