Xan Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I tried toothpaste, did absolutely nothing. I'll try WD-40, does it work well? I'm using an old Lego head before using it on Vakama's disk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munty Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Maybe it's the wrong kind of toothpaste?

Xan Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Thanks for that. Might get some brasso tomorrow. Lets see how well this goes. I'll test on an old smiley head first. EDIT: So I heard that a pencil rubber would work. After nearly an hour, Vakama's stupid face is still present, looking at me fail at making him disappear. Lets see if the firespitter can over come brasso tomorrow. Edited February 19, 2015 by Craig B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xan Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Hey! I'm the one loosing to a plastic disk! Interestingly, the rubber trick works on minifigures, so that makes me suspect the print has a finish that prevents the removal of it, like 80's print and chrome SW figs.

Munty Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Perhaps trans plastic reacts differently to solid colours like minifigs? Again, not my area of expertise at all but could have different surfacing or finishing I suppose?

Xan Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) Well the rubber trick also works on 3.0 CCBS armour plates with the hero's name on it, so I assume its a finish on the print. Either way, Vakama's ugly mug will vanish one way or another. I've also got to get a black disk launcher to go with it.

bionicleuniverse Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Hi guys, yesterday I bought an extreme rare and huge lot in Holland of sealed kanohi masks! I'm very enthousiastic about it.It's the European kanohi mask bag edition so very collectible! I payed a lot for them but I think they're worth it. I don't need so many but I could only buy them all or none, so If Anyone is interested. I saw they were asking ridiculous high prices on eBay for it around 40 dollar to 60 for a sealed kanohi set. I can offer them here for just 19,- dollar a bag and if you take ten sealed bags I Can offer free international shipping! If your interested Pm me or mail me: Cas_zutphen@hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xan Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I almost made that mistake. I have now acquired a black Kanoka launcher. Nothing has worked on that disk, not even Brasso. Extreme measures will be needed, I will try sand paper. Will it be worth it? I have not a single clue. And is it safe to assume that if a prototype Hau has a stud connection, then all 6 of them do? Can somebody confirm that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letagi Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 I believe that the prototype Hau has the prototype stud connection, and the other five have the finalized version. That's what makes the Hau the most special of the six. -Letagi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mask collector Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 My toa prototype masks have the prototype stud connection. They're all the same rarity if you ask me, but the hau prototype might be more sought after seeing as HAU it's the most iconic mask in bionicle.

Xan Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Aha, I see what you did there. That is one of the reasons I like the Hau so much, because it is iconic. I think I have nearly every version of the 01 Hau, except obviously the shiny elusive gold one. And we all know who does! Also nearly have all the Krana. A few orders on Bricklink should soon get me past that small milestone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letagi Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 Nice work on the disk, Craig. Looks good! Yeah, that's a bit much for just the disk. But it's not terrible. -Letagi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xan Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I was thinking of nabbing it, the one I have now is scratched a bit and has lost the shiny part. But I am really happy with how it turned out.

Letagi Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 Not a bad idea. If you wait for another one, you're likely to be waiting for a while.
