Picked one up today, they had a bunch of them just lying by the figures.
If you check the details on the free shipping you will see that it is free only if you order $100 of merchandise. I ordered 3 rings from the website and shipping was $5.06.

Went with eBay, found one that wasn't charging way too much and had a bit of extra cash in paypal...should arrive any day now
I'm sure there are better places to order from though...this just seemed easy and quick
Doh! Not bad though. If you really want them....

To make them smaller, I'd just cut the back, slowly bend it into place, then weld it back together.

I picked up my ring a couple of days ago.
I put it on my middle finger and it got stuck...I almost broke the plastic section off the ring trying to twist it off my finger.
Great ring for only 10 bucks.

Well, I basically copied MrGzilla only I kept the center gem.
Used two-part epoxy and foil.
Differences are:
Dremeled the surface of the band so it looked less manufactured. Drilled a hole under the gem for possible LED assembly. Cut the band and tried to bend it but it isn't going anywhere. Also painted a little silver ring around the gem, but I knicked the plastic up so it's a bit uneven.
Fun little project.

What kind of foil did you use? Looks great!
I picked up two rings at TRU today. Began modding one of them. Here are the specifics:
1. Removed the copyright and weathering on the metal band with superfine steel wool.
2. Removed the top plastic piece.
4. Been Dremeling the inside of the band so it'll fit my Kilowog-sized finger. I think I'm almost there. It's been a real pain!
3. Cut a stainless steel ring to size, which will surround the gem. It looks great!
I'm planning on (maybe) keeping the stock gem (unless anyone can suggest a better replacement piece), but I don't know what kind of reflective backing would provide a nice, bright green sparkle. I'm looking for that "cracked" gem appearance, but I didn't have any luck at Michaels or Jo-Ann Fabrics today.
I'm thinking maybe a clear-colored (not green), mirror-backed rhinestone, with the stock gem in front of it, would provide a nice, bright green appearance. Thoughts?
Got mine today. Pretty good for $10. Messed up the center gem while removing it from the one I am going to mod.
Gregatron, What size do you need for your "Kilowog-size" finger? I think my correct finger is size 14. Not sure if I can remove enough material to fit and still be thick enough to actually wear. Right now it fits the ring finger of my left hand.
