The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Jacket related question. When they make a piece like the rogue Maquette where the jacket can not be removed. Does that guarantee that the key under the jacket isn’t pretty? Like, I’m assuming they put it on then put one of the arms in and glue the shoulder key in place.

I dont think its a gurantee it would be unsightly, but i guess you wouldnt know for sure until you cut the jacket off to see what youre working with

I was thinking more of if the leather fades over time, cutting the jacket off, then having something made that can slip on over everything. Maybe hide elastic in a seam somewhere

Full sculpt for the win! I will say as always P1 does some seemingly high quality capes though, maybe the only exception where it's close for me.

I bought a new Indiana Jones pf a couple years ago and the whole jacket flaked anywhere I touched it. Had to return it. This stuff happens with HT figures a lot too.
