I'd be proud to help with the figure for next year if I can.   Let me kno what ya need, Mike, if anything: parts, ideas, whatever.   It'd be awesome to be part of the process... if possible.    :shifty: 


I'm thankful I have a Canuck Meet figure of my own though, being able to get a Shiver toy was quite an accomplishment for me.  SWEET figure.   

I'll be reviewing it for another site, anyone care to read it here too?   (Mine has NO problems at all, it's sturdy)

Still didn't get the screw off, but I managed to pop the head back in, I think next year I'll have to bring him so Mike can unscrew him for me.(in case I have to change an o ring sometime in the future)

Last night I drilled out the holes in the bottom of my guys feet. I did it VERY SLOWLY as I could feel the plastic expanding from time to time. It took me probably about 10 mins per foot but I'm happy with the end result. One thing i noticed id the boots must be rit dyed black because the plastic inside is white.

As for faults with my figure, yeah my figures body is totally flush and the white areas on his legs have a bit of rit dye transferred on them but that's no big deal. I've had that happen to me with using rit dye as well in the past where I thought I had cleaned it well enough after dying it but sometimes that stuff still transfers. Besides, if the pants were stark white then it wouldn't look realistic. It's not like Shiver is dressed for Sunday tea.
