Any ideas on removing dye stains from figures ?. Thanks. Doll collectors use pimple cream (oxy-10) to get out dye stains. They apply it, let it sit overnight, clean it off, repeat as needed. I never tried it and don't know how it reacts to Mattel plastic. Google it for more info.

I never tried it and don't know how it reacts to Mattel plastic. Google it for more info. I've used that method to great effect with Jakks figs. Ive found that putting the figure in sunlight is the key to success.

His jaw shouldn't be extended. Keep your teeth together and make that face he is.making, your jaw won't extend at all . What happens is that your upper lip moves and the jaw stays in the same place, it would be an open mouth sculpt that would have an extended jaw. That head is.all.kinds.of messed up imo. They sculpted the extended jaw for a facial expression that doesn't extend the jaw bone No when he did that taunt expression he extended his chin. The scan is correct to that expression. But people are crapping on it because it isn't an expression they wanted. But it is correct to the expression. And for the scale if you factor in the molded high spiked hair it's no larger than any other head. That looks right, thanks for the pic. I still don't think the scan looks like sting very much but I see what you mean about the head height

well I think PJ found the right promo pic that Mattel worked off of. I just think Gentle Giant's scan/sculpt is so very very off. bharrisfan THANK you thank you thank you! You've now given me a reason for that bluetista torso, I'm putting it on my Sid right away!

Finally finished up my Seth Rollins and added the gloves. Officially done with this one and can focus on other things now. And by other things I mean making awesome capes for my Bulldog figure! Bought a UK table flag and some 1/8" elastic and had at it. Tried to glue the elastic first but I couldn't get any kind of glue to stick to the flag so I had to break out the sewing kit. Think it turned out great and it's so much better than the rubber flag he came with.

You've now given me a reason for that bluetista torso, I'm putting it on my Sid right away! If there is one thing on the scan that they went with I wish was better it's the cheek bones. They should be more defined. But with the figure maybe the facepaint is hiding them, but I'm really not seeing them. The sad thing is I bought a spare Bulldog about a month ago for the Sting torso fix. And I do really like that Sid and want to do it. But I am so hesitant to do them, because if there is the slightest gap in Sting's seams when I put them back together I will be pissed. lol

Elite Val Venis (ran out of acetone so that's why the wristbands are still partially visible)

So I had a 20% off coupon plus a couple $5 rewards coupon that were buring a hole in my pocket so I purchased my 5th and final DM Sting. Came out to $13 and change for it and a soda for my wife. But it had laced boots so I figured it would be the figure I attempt the torso split on seeing had to change the boots anyway. I didn't do Sid though, because I didn't think the Triple H torso would look good on Davey Boy...so I just swapped Sting and Davey boy. I gave Sting a pair of e18 Lawler's boots painted white. And I will probably give him the Ziggler bicep mold later today. Still need to swap the upper arms to the e19 Ziggler arms and finish the boots.
