Heavy duty coax cable, apoxie sculpt, drywall screws & some super glue. I cut the coax cable to lengths. Screwed the drywall screws in to ends as centered as possible. Cut screw heads off. Super glued in place. Formed a ball joint for the claws to attach at one end & formed a peg at the other ends. Sanded sculpted ends, Took extra coax cable & gutted everything (wire/foil) out. Everything was lightly sanded so paint sticks better. Took hollow coax sleeve & cut into sections. Placed all the sections in hot boiling water so I can stretch them on the main stick of the future tentacle. Used a tiny drop of super glue randomly between each section to prevent sliding of sections. Painted every thing except the claws(I may want to resell my figure, lol). These tentacles are bendy & removable. The cable is strong enough to support Doc Ock & Spidey in the air. I didn't use any hidden wires/etc. to help hold them both up. Enjoy.
