(RS Props) Strapping Assistance

[ExpertAmateur]

I have an ESB RS Props commission and their display bust. The commission comes strapped together, but how do I detach the shoulders and chest pieces from the biceps and abdomen pieces, so that I can display them on the bust?

 

Many thanks.

Hi Brandon, can you share a picture to see what's going on?

As Paul highlighted above, pictures would greatly help in sharing advice,  it could be just a case of snaps on elastics n pop's?, also have you reached out to RS for them to furnish customer support?

Hi, here is what the strapping system looks like. Not sure how to separate the upper chest from the abdomen or the shoulders from the biceps. Attached is also what it is supposed to look like on the display bust.

Edit: not sure why the link warns about adult content - the photos are just of the armor. Could possibly be due to one of the images being named 'bust'

Thanks for your comment. Please see my above reply to Paul.

I have not emailed RS yet, as they are closed on weekends I believe.

You have to remove the brackets to separate the chest to the abdomen, same on the back

What do you mean same on the back?

 

What would I need - just some pliers to grasp it and unscrew?

These brackets are also on the back plate to kidney.

 

Adjustable spanner and screwdriver

If I understand your situation, you want to display the back and chest piece with shoulder bells on a bust? 

Just cut the elastic where the chest meets the abs and butt plate, then slip the top half over bust.

To add to the sage advice from Glen.

shoulders should de-attach with pops

 

 

 

Biceps should slide out of the retaining elastic on the shoulder bells

 

 

Hope this helps and it turns out its just a quick fix
