Trying Again : Anyone Making VF-1J Heads and Lasers or have Bandai Sap

...Bandai Spares?

Still looking for a good quality, quasi-plastic recast or Bandai original "J" Head. Anyone have any?

I have the Beers versions and they are really nice to look at but the lasers are fragile......... I know they're not going to hold up with my kids in the house.

Anyone recasting lasers at least?

You got some skills man, brass tube and some putty to build it up at the base. Just sand it to smooth it out with a taper. The brass tube can be super glued into the head socket after it's driled out. See how simple that sounds . Seriously though, the brass tube will be stronger than any plastic. - MT

The problem is the base of the turret will crumble under the stress.

The resin in these is very gritty as opposed to some I have seen that have more plasticity. I need someone who works with the plastic-like resin to help me cast some of these parts so they have at least a LITTLE bit of flexibility. I can provide the parts if necessary.

Yeah a lot of resin cast stuff is for looking and not touching.
