Rubies DOJ grapple gun


Just got these and boy, I would venture to say these are the best props that Rubies has ever put out. Obviously, its a toy but very accurate compared with "real deal" pics. Size is nice too.

After watching a few youtube videos and picking a few of my best bat buddy heads, I'm going to start painting them up.

Pretty cool Tony. Can't wait to see how they come out all painted up. Let us know how you prep the plastic for the paint too, it looks like it might not like the paint all that much. (I hope I'm wrong)
It does baffle me why they would make them orange and white though. Why not cast them in the correct color, right?

Awesome!! I picked one up about a week ago at Party City. I've seen a few painted up over at TPF. They can look pretty darn good all painted up. Also, don't know if you know already. In the DC Multi Universe Aquaman figure package, comes 2 darts that can be modded to fit on the gun.

Here is another done. The paint job on this one is really nice.

After Halloween I'll have time to work on mine.

Re: Rubies DOJ grapple gun


FINALLY had some time to myself to finish getting the handles painted. I want to get a bigger, more coarse brush for the final coat of brown to give it some wood grain texture. Then I'll do the blackwash to give it the effect. Wish me luck!
