When I first started on my Bryan repaint, I spilt some paint on the torso. I had no idea how to remove it using Goof-Off/Acetone, so I scrubbed it off with a Brillo pad. It worked, but there's still pink residue on the figure. Any quick fixes to remove it? I've tried rinsing it and scrubbing it, but nothing happened.

First post. My two year old has fell in love with the Mattel action figures...I prefer to get him the elites because of the better articulation....with him being only two and playing with these, they do take a beating. He has broken the legs of two elite figures, the elite series Erick Rowan and Elite Big Show. He has broken them at the spot where the peg adjoins to the crotch of the figure. I am not sure how to upload photos, or I would post. My question to the board is are these worth the trouble of trying to repair, or would I be better off to find them loose online somewhere? Thanks in advance!! My first advice is don't buy $20 action figures for a two year old. But no, even with a really strong glue, it's apt to break off again with rough play.

I should probably buy the basics for his age, but I'll be honest, the figures are for me too lol. I had a bunch of the jakks figures from when I was younger, but they dont even compare to the figures that are out now. They are so awesome, that I get caught up in it as well. Thanks again for your input, as I thought that it would be more trouble than it was worth.

I'm not a huge fan of diva figures. They don't do much for me. But those look FANTASTIC. Awesome job.

Can someone tell me which elite figures have the same skin tone as the Legends Rick Martel?

Heads are too big (as they mostly are) but the paint work and sculpting is exceptional on all of them. Especially like the JBL torso.

@theoneandonly1979, here's a sentence you'll never hear outside of this thread: JBL's love-handles are beautiful.
