Ideas on 'robotic tentacles'?

[dr_cyclops]

There are some 'braided sleevings' and 'spiral wrap' plastic electrical cable covers that might work for you:

^ Do not worry one bit. That's why I put the emoticons in my statement. I wanted you to know that I found it funny too.

Your understanding, to my honesty/TMI(?), makes your character shine, even here on the web.

The '90s Toybiz Doc Ock projector-figure has some good in scale ones, too--but thety are molded in a pre-posed position.

You can buy the payphone cords on ebay

That's where I got them. I'm not a thief

eBay? too cool. Megospidey, I am trully sorry. I would like to say it was just a bad joke, but that would be a lie. the truth is, I didn't know this item was available to the public. I was going for humor in my statement, didn't realize at the time, how presumptuous it was.

Here you go. Take the wiring out, replace it with a stiff wire and viola - you have great looking tentacles. Cutting them will be the most difficult part.

Thanks for all the photos and ideas!
The Matrix Sentinal deserves further investigation as to scale with the 8 inch size.
Love the payphone cord. Sadly, I'm highly allergic to stealing anything but bad jokes and ideas.
Mego Museum is a treasure trove of information and creation, thanks to you helpful members.

I used the cord from a payphone to make these -- it was a booger to cut, but it worked. The ends are from the 7" doc ock figure

I stole the tentacles off one of these for mine. I think there's another 6" Doc Ock figure not pictured above that has some that will work as well.

The last time I was in Arkansas I couldn't find a pay phone with a cord, now I know why!!! And Knowing is half the Battle LOL

^^ The i-beam shape would be great for Superman to wrap around Luthor, too.

There's a drafting tool I don't use very often called a flexible french curve. You can find it in most art stores in blue or grey. It's a glorified piece of rubber with a wire inside to make it hold a shape as you draw around the edges. They come in a sort of square tube shape or an I-Beam girder shape tho. Not round like the real Doc Ock tentacles. Still if you buy a couple and cut them into segments you would have some neat posable tentacles.
