Series 2 Vampire Cape Problem

Post by JabbaT » Wed Aug 25, 2010 5:08 pm

I have the series 2 vampire but is having difficulties on putting the cape. Its 1 cape with 2 sides but I can't put both the top and bottom part behind like the picture they show you. Does anyone know how to put the cape on him??

Here's how I did it. Fold the top half of the cap down so that the holes are on top of the other holes. Then pretend that its a normal cape, and put it on like there was no top part. Make sure that the smaller cape is on the top. Then, put the head on. Once the head is on, fold the smaller (upper) cape up and you're done.

Hope that helps.

He's obviously having problems with the fact that its 2 separate pieces that are interfering with each other.
Stop being a jerk or get out.

I suggest putting them both on at the same time.

I followed the steps you gave me but everytime I try to put the smaller (upper) cape up, the entire cape comes off. Or is it suppose to have 2 holes showing in the front? I can't get it to look like the one in the picture.

First, the cape is one piece. Per the previous instructions, fold the top and bottom section of the cape. The holes should line up. One on each side. Then you need to line up the set of holes and insert on the neck and assemble the head. After that, you need to fold the cape up. Hope it helps

Raider is actually correct. You have to align all four holes. And the cape is one piece. No reason for you to be so rude. He was trying to help.

After working with the cape for a good 15 minutes, I managed to put it all together like the picture. I got confused at the beginning on where to put the head piece. But its all good now. Thanks for the help everyone.

I wasn't being a jerk. I guess I will take my legos and go play somewhere else. :D

Think of it as 2 parts: the cape (larger part) & the collar (smaller). Line up the cape holes like normal. Then fold the collar holes down one at a time till they all line up (like Raiders, the non-jerk said). If anybody can get that fold at the back of the collar to smooth out, feel free to share.

It took me the same amount of time to get the cape folded properly as well.

I cut the cape in two with a scissor. I separated the top and bottom. Was I suppose to do that?

Not really, although I can see it still working fine as two pieces. As long as you cut it along the thinnest point, it just becomes a normal cape and a separate collar piece.
