For those that have FansProject Menasor, do any of you know where I can get that non-slip tape stuff that is on the soles of his feet? I want it for my other combiners but can't find it anywhere. I've check the local rubber shops and had a decent look online but can't find anything thin enough.

there's non slip stuff on his feet? *gets up to check feet*
oh wow so there is , i'd never noticed it before, no idea where you'd find some though

[Sinnertwin]

How thin would you prefer the tape, Trent? +/- 1.5mm?

[UltraMarginal]

why did they stop using light piping? i think its one of the coolest features.
only thing missing from my masterpiece figures is light up eyes

They haven't stopped using light piping as SkyShadow mentioned, it's pretty common, it's use is either a budget decision, or maybe a design decision.
I personally think some figures look better without it and there are times when having a big clear back of the head makes it look like their brain module is exposed.
Other figures of course really do benefit from it. It works much better on display cabinets that have some sort of side or back lighting.

have you considered a hobby shop, perhaps hobbyco or that art supplies shop that is in a lot of shopping centres. I'm not sure what the material on not menasaurs feet is but perhaps even a fine grit sandpaper would work.

Too thick dude. The stuff on his feet would be less than 1mm. Closer to ~.75mm

Good idea, I'll check hobby shops. But I don't think that sandpaper would work well on my glass shelves

ah fair enough i havn't actually bought any of the newer toys besides mp's in forever ( well over a year since i've picked something up from a shop) so i guess my question was more aimed towards them , i just find sometimes that there faces look very shadowed compared to the rest of the figures for some reason :S

perhaps i need to add some floor lighting to my shelves :S
