Okay so...I decided on trying to make my own custom Sting figure. Just going to give it a shot. I have several Jakks figs laying around now that I switched to Mattel. I want to use the Head from a John Morrison I got in a 2 pack of him and Miz in their street clothes...and I want to use the body of a Chris Jericho I have...what I want to do is kind of a retro style thing where his head and face paint is more modern but his clothing is more his "Surfer" style...I'm really thinking maybe a Patriotic theme here...
So now that you get what I'm going for kind of...1. What is the best way to remove the heads? I've never done such a thing (only done painting before)...and I don't want to mess them up. 2. What is the best sealer to use on the paint once I finish it up?...
I think that's about it, will post more questions if I think of any more...thanks for any help!
*Apologies for not placing this in Support Center, that was my mistake, I thought I was still under that when I created the thread*

I always just pulled the Jakks heads off and the head & peg would come out. Others like to heat the head in water and just remove the head. You can find matte or gloss sealers at craft stores. Hope this helps.

This belongs in the Custom Support Centre, and a mod will probably move it there. As for the question, pwsphil pretty much answered it for you.

Yeah, I know :/ must have hit the back button one to many times and not realized I was posting it, thought I was in Support Center when I did, but to the other poster thanks for answering the question even if it was in the wrong section. I'll give it a shot and hopefully it works out.
