Goldust came through for me in a big way! Thanks bro! I thought I wanted an NWA-style Terry Taylor, but now I'm not so sure; I think the Red Rooster gimmick would be much more fun to display. What do you guys think? Glad to help buddy. I like the looks of it, but I can see why you'd want to display him as Rooster. Personally, I'd go Rooster.

They're a little difficult from my experience, they're not the hardest to try pull off but the ankle joint will come out if not careful. It happened to me when i was swapping the Red/Yellow Hogan's, thankfully i was able to get the red ankle back in (the boots i was using) but one of the yellows was difficult so i just left it out.

What do you guys think? That's a great fix-up... I guess if he's being displayed with other WWF figures/characters though, then I'd go with the Rooster gimmick (...or you could always buy another Rooster, so you can have both!).

Trying to make a 2017 and/or current Harper and trying to put the right parts together is is challenging hahaha.

I only have Harpers first 2 elites and a Custom with the Black Battlepack vest and head. Harper uses the Kane Torso though.

hi guys, i'm new to this so bare with me. the question i have is... no matter the amount of acetone i put on a wwe chris jericho head ( from mattel ) will it ruin and break the head, like how acetone breaks the torso (which i did before) and i don't want to break this one... i already put some on him, but i'm worried if i put it again it will break? also what substance can remove the marks or permanent marker other than acetone and works well and is more safe. i'm sorry i have so many questions it's just I've been worrying a lot about it... but i want to get on with this custom johnny cage i'm making, and i keep on screwing up the paint job on the custom glasses i made for him and the paint gets on the forehead, and i cant get the glasses to even sizes so i use milliput and paint over with black, but like i said i keep screwing up with the paint... so i use acetone to remove it. so this was my question and why i am asking it. sorry if kept on repeating myself it has just been stressing me out lately...
and will too much acetone remove the skin color? or is that the color of the mold making it impossible to remove? because i don't want my custom to lose it's skin color.
i hope you guys can answer soon because it's really worrying me and stressing me, hope good answers! thanks guys!

The head is molded in skin tone. You can probably use clear nail polish to remove the marks. Brush on the clear polish, wait a second, wipe off polish with a paper towel or rag. The marks should come off with the polish. Repeat process as needed until all paint/marks you want are gone from sight.

I don’t think you’ll have the same issues with acetone on a head as with a torso. They are made of different plastics and react differently to the acetone. The torso and crotch piece are a harder and thinner plastic and acetone is harsher on it. The heads and limbs are a bit more forgiving since the plastic is softer. Goof Off is a product that is basically acetone but I find that it’s less harsh and abrasive. Also, rub gently to avoid damage.

Even if put like 100 times of 100% acetone? It won't break or remove anything?, because sometimes I have a habit of putting a lot on it because I don't feel satisfied enough.

That works well too?

Is it a liquid? How much is it CDN? Both acetone and Goof Off are almost exactly the same. There’s a little bit of difference in what it contains but everything works the same. You would use it the exact same way you would use acetone. I’m not sure about Canadian prices but here I think it’s roughly the same price as a bottle of acetone. I haven’t bought any in a long time though.

And what does that mean the thing you replied back You can use alot of acetone on the head and arms and everything should be fine. It should not damage the plastic. I use it to remove unwanted tattoos and have never had a problem with the plastic changing color or breaking. The torso is a different story that plastic will damage easily from acetone but if done carefully it will not.
