Hey Broskis
Seeing the pics for Ringside Fest 2011, great pics, really excited! The Punk, just isn't doing it for me. First off, if this is in the wrong board, sorry. Secondly, why are Basic Punk's arms fully black? And would Elite Punk arms work for a Basic Punk body? +1 for any help.

You could easily switch the arms by heating them up and pulling them off/swapping, but to remove the whole arm I think you have to crack the torso?
I know what you mean though, I also wish his Basics would have at least just a bit of colour in the tattoos.

Yeah bro, we see great pics of his Elites, colour, everything. Basics, nothing. Guys like Rey, Taker, Orton yeah, cause' their ink is fully black pretty much. Just wish Rey would stop getting ink'ed. The Battle Pack in your sig, great Rhodes fig, but at SDCC when it was revealed, Rey had more work done on his forearms.

Yeah I've done tons of arm swaps for Punk. The Elite 11 arms would make the new BP Punk look 100 times better.

You don't have to crack the torso to swap out the arms(including the shoulder joint) but it may be the easiest way to do it. You can heat up the shoulder joints and slice the connecting joint with an x-acto knife and pull the whole arm off to swap them out but it's harder than a torso crack imo.
Either way, it's frustrating that Basic Punk with such a great attire doesn't come with colored tattoos. I haven't decided if I am going to swap the whole arm or just do a regular swap with the bicep and forearm. I do know that a set of Dean's tattoos are absolutely vital to fill out the color on the shoulder.
I have to be honest, I'm most disappointed that the slicked back hair wasn't updated on the Macho style Punk. I actually would have been completely fine with no color on the tattoos if the scan was updated.

It's cause there only cheap basics.. There not meant too have all these accessories and full blown color and articulation added too them, thats for the elites.. Basics are always going too be the dumb down, cheap versions of elites that come out before elites do because they throw them together so easy and quick |
