This is my only mod so far. Chopped him off at the knees and tucked him behind the sign. I need to slit the wraps a little to get his arms to bend up in the more iconic position, but it looks pretty good IMO.

Updated mummy. The broken links in his mouth act like little hooks. Just attach the chains, but be sure to use Super Glue or something similar so they don't vibrate off.

Just an early look at the orb mod I'm doing for my IM Pro. I drilled a hole in the plastic centered on the orb graphic and flipped my LED board. I mounted a clear ball and added a blue diffuser to add some color. I will experiment with different colors and brightness. Just a quick vid showing the orb mod and me playing one handed. It should definitely be more obvious where the orb shot is.

I don't have it yet, but Ill be mounting a Legacy of the Beast mini-figure Clairvoyant behind the orb. I would also like to add a little base to the ball to give it a more finished look. Here it is.

I considered trying to position the lit orb between her hands too.

Thanks guys. The orb mod is super easy. It took me no more than 15 minutes or so.

For my orb I used a globe from a string of lights. The globe is the size I wanted and the shape works well. I also like the fact it's not perfectly clear (I would have preferred a cloudy look) but it was affordable and looks great from the players view. I ended up lightly sanding the globe anyway to get my cloudy look and hide the bubbles inside.

String of globe lights for $9 and free shipping. You can pluck the globes off and still have the string of lights too.

I drilled a hole in the plastic the same diameter as the little downtube. It keeps the ball steady and seems to help channel the light. I chose to file the tube down some, but it could be left long to add a pedestal for the orb. I simple slid a piece of blue sticky note paper between the led and lightly sanded globe to change the color.

The more I play with it the more I really like it, even without adding the figure (although I’m going to)

I like the orb illuminates when the orb is hit and obviously when the orb shot is lit.

Just as an update, I added my mini-figure, but she was still too big. I had to cut her dress in half. I tried a few different mounting options, but opted for simplicity. I drill a hole (divot) the size of the center screw head and put a small dab of super glue in the divot (adhered to screw head) and it's very solid with no vibration.

Anyway, not as great as I hope, but better then the original IMO.

The powerblade version of this will be insane.
