Do you know whether it's possible to acetone the upper arm tattoos? Yup. That's what I did. I didn't feel like splitting the torso. That's great, thanks for all the help +1 again haha

Great collection, love your work so far! Might be a silly question but how did you make the EG Taker into an Elite? (which parts did you swap etc?) I took an E8 Taker, swapped the head and arms and boot covers, then acetoned the designs on the tights. I also painted the gloves gray. Do you know whether it's possible to acetone the upper arm tattoos?

Great set of Takers! Just a shame the Entrance Greats isn't Elite, such an awesome attire.

For the guys saying 'get over it, it's only a figure'... well that's beside the point!... YES Mattel have been great so far and have done a lot in the short time they have had the deal BUT it is very annoying getting a figure with loose ankle joints (like a lot of you have experienced also) I have had quite a few like it and in this country you can't call up to get a voucher and you can't keep taking loads of figures back to the store with the same problem. The latest one to have it in my collection is E9 Orton, the ankle looks ready to fall off. I just HOPE they sort this out soon and work out why it keeps happening, it's my only fault with them.

Wow I love the retro Elite Orton! I hope they release a Defining Moments of him with the old school scan.

I wish I had that stick figure! Awesome collection regardless. I like your set up. Wish I had that many elites. HAHA Yeah the stick figure was pretty hard to find, fits in with the whole set up though which is a good thing ;D

As the saying goes 'Practice makes perfect' I also messed a few up to begin with by dropping them into the bottom of the water bowl through being too shakey LOL. Once I had become more used to it though it just came easy and my Punk figures are starting to look more complete There's no way they ruin the figures and they give you plenty of time to move them around and straighten them out before you leave them to dry. I applied the clear nail polish around 2 hours after applying the decals and it worked a treat I have also ordered some more as well as a spare set for future Punk figures.

I would like to do the arms too do you do that the same way ? I feel you'd have to be a lot more delicate with them any advice would be great as i'd love to do it Unfortunately I've never done an arm swap but I'd like to have a go at it, Have only done head swaps so far, would also like to hear some advice from the veterans on here about how to do it

That scan is so cool, I hope they make an Elite with it... either way, great fix up! If you could just switch the arms now it'll be perfect
