I've done it a ton, and it's super-easy, no tools required, just acetone and q-tips. - Dip a q-tip in high-test acetone (16fl oz of "Onyx" nail polish remover costs $3 at WM... which is more than you'll ever need in a lifetime), shake off the excess and even rub the surface "wetness" off on the...

Well THAT didn't take long... -------------------------------------------- From Hasbro R&C PR: "We wanted to share an update on packaging for Hasbro’s 6-inch-scale figures. Based on your feedback, we will be re-introducing windows and blisters to our 6-inch fan figures beginning later this...

I like that better than stock for sure. I still prefer her to be a blonde, but if I can't get a good alternate, I'll default back to this solution. Very nice.

It has to be intentional. The real question is, how does hasbro THINK this helps them (even though it doesn't)?

When things are easy to customize, I buy a ton of them. When they're all one-offs, I'll get one at most. Three women, the same size, yet we have three different head connections. It's baffling. Why can't they standardize?! Unless a figure is a real oddball and the look of the character...

I have no fear of taking them off, just give em 10-15 sec with a heat gun so everything flexes and doesn't snap. Mine should arrive monday, so I'll know more in a few days.

I think you'd have to just dremel out the head a little, as I think the movie fig uses a smaller neckball. Not having done it, I don't know if it's easier to mod the head or swap the necks too (or if that's possible). I just recall reading on a customs group that they aren't an easy LBC swap...

SE movie Scarletts are selling for $10 or less as it stands, so picking up a spare is not an expensive prospect. It would look even better if you painted her a blonde. Beware that SE Movie Scarlett does not use the same neckball as regular JoeClass Scarlett. They are not compatible without...

Hahahahaha yeah..... I can say with great certainty that I'm NOT making a 1/10th scale animated deco Statue of Liberty dio prop. Can you imagine? Aside from being 30ft tall and impossible to pose things with... heck, even if I did JUST the head & torch arm, it would be massive and there would...

I'm not working on toon-specific sets, but there are several of the Extreme Sets Pop-up Dios that solidly mimic the inside of Joe HQ in the toon and others that could easily be a cobra or decepticon base. I'll definitely use those as backgrounds and/or sets. And of course, as soon as W2 drops...

I have the first Ultimates wave in hand, and they're pretty awesome. They're not as articulated as Classified, as they just have single elbows and knees, but they absolutely ooze sunbow nostalgia. They seem almost too smooth and too simple (detail-wise), and yet they look like they literally...

Yeah... the blue one comes with totally different character-specific accessories, so that's one reason to pick up the other one, but I also am a fan of the blue just because it has roots in both the toon and the early comics. I'm perfectly fine owning both and would pick up the blue one even if...

Wave 4 of the Ultimates announced today.... Zartan, Gung-Ho, Stalker, and Baroness in her black deco. I actually predicted the first three, but I never dreamed the 4th would be another Baroness since the blue version hasn't even been released yet. Seems like they're shooting themselves in the...

I have more affinity for the MASS miniseries blonde covergirl than the fugly '83 figure with a massive noggin. I owned her and the wolverine, but she was probably my least favorite character in those early years. Such a terrible sculpt back then... even at age 8, I was like, "THIS used to be a...

Yeah, I too do not like the no-plastic boxes. I prefer to see what's in there before I open it, check the obvious QC bits, see the accessories... but Big H needs woke points. It's a real kick in the teeth for MOC collectors. I often keep one in the box, but not because I ever plan on...

I think they look fine together. The original CG isn't completely uniform, as the chest and knees are redder than the arms and thighs which are a tad more orange. The BAT seems to follow a similar breakdown in color except the chest is also the color of the arms and thighs. The Crimson BAT is...

Good question. I'll check when I get home against the regular CG release. The retro release CG photos definitely look like a brighter red, but not sure where the BAT falls on that spectrum.

Out of the blue, Crimson BAT showed up today from AMZ. I hadn't planned on getting one, as I normally don't like trooper repaints in all colors of the rainbow, but the red looked nice, and I knew that I wouldn't feel compelled to troop-build them. So I threw one in the cart a while back. But...

Nice... are you all-in? I really like what they're doing, but I can't recall the last time I busted out my 4" SW figures. I still have an unbuilt laser-cut masonite 4" carbon freeze chamber playset I bought from a 3rd party like 10 years ago. I might have to just live vicariously through...

You need to add Jem and the Holograms just to make it that much wackier.
