\"TBS_rex_customsm\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There has been a lot of commentary out there about the helmet size of the new Captain Rex (#09) figure from The Black Series being too small. There is a very easy “fix” that most people can do if you have some older Clone Wars Rex figures laying about. Click on through<\/a> for a quick fix on bringing that shrunken head version back to the front lines of your collection.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"TBS_rex_custom\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The fix is pretty straight forward and requires no cutting, painting or altering existing parts of figures so they can be returned to “original” condition with minimal effort.<\/p>\n

FIGURES\/PARTS\/SUPPLIES NEEDED:<\/strong>
\nClone Wars Captain Rex (CW13) – helmet only
\n<\/a>The Black Series Captain Rex (#09)
\nHot Glue gun<\/p>\n

DIRECTIONS:<\/strong>
\nStep 1:<\/strong> Remove the helmet from TBS Rex and set it aside.
\nStep 2:<\/strong>\u00a0Remove the helmet from CW13 Rex and place a tiny bit of hot glue inside – use only enough glue to fill the helmet cavity about 1\/4 full
\nStep 3:<\/strong> Place the helmet with glue on top of the neck post of the TBS #09 Captain Rex – rotating it slightly to spread the glue around the neck post.
\nStep 4:<\/strong> Let the glue harden for 5-10 min.<\/p>\n

This custom is suitable for displaying in multiple poses but not for “aggressive” play as the head is only held on by the added friction from the hot glue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
