Heat it up a little with a hair dryer and gently work it back and forth until the paint gives.

Re: Big Chief Studios - 1/6 Doctor Who - #04 Tom Baker
thks!
heat what part? the head? base of neck?
was thinkin heat when a joint is stuck is bad, but im used to that with smaller 6inch scale figs, where the joint may tear when soft and heated.
i guess with a larger joint 1/6 size like this you dont have to worry and heat is your friend then?

I'd heat it as close to the joint as possible, and definitely only a bit at a time. Like you said, don't want the plastic getting too soft and tearing.

Whatever you do, don't force it. If you feel like you're gonna break it, just walk away. There's nothing worse than hearing that *SNAP!*

I could have done that for you but I don't have photoshop installed at the moment, nor the spare room on my desktop machine to put it back on right now, unfortunately.
Hmm, I could install it on my laptop, I guess, but it'd probably be the weekend until I have time to do so. Funny thing is, sounds like the job you need done would take less time to do than it will just installing the software package itself. Even so, if you still need help in a day or so, or are happy to wait until then, just hit me up, and I'll be happy to sort it for you and get it back to you sometime over the coming weekend.

No offense to Lasirenofeire, but I think that scarf looks pretty terrible. You can't weave in 1:6 and have it look good.
@captainjamesbrooke, I love your scarf. I would definitely be interested in one of your 1:1 scarves. Absolutely lovely.

Haha, I agree that he might not be their first choice, due to popularity, but I'm a Colin fan and it'd be one I'd love to see. That costume on the shelf in sixth scale would sure be eye-catching!
Also, Big Chief should do the living Doctors while they can. If they want the special autographed editions, approved by the actors, then they should get busy.
I don't want to be gloomy, but Colin is 70, Sylvester is 70, Peter Davison is 62. None of them are old, exactly, especially not Davison, and I hope we see them all wowing us at conventions for twenty more years, Stan Lee style, but they are all at the age when sudden changes of fortune health-wise are not unheard of (touch wood). Don't leave a Colin figure till last, ten years down the track. Do Colin and Sylvester figures now, so the genuine articles can gurn in photos with their miniature selves and autograph a bunch.
Also, they both got a bit of a raw deal in their runs and tend to be the butt of 'classic Doctor Who was silly' clip-show-type jokes, so it is always nice to remind them that they are appreciated by the fanbase too!
Colin didn't always have the best writing or production values, but he was and is a great doc, and does good work in Big Finish! And, as people say, many still have a few beloved stories from his era. Mine 'Vengeance on Varos'.
The exercise bike accessory could be a bit cumbersome, though. You could have an orange wig to put on your Sylvester figure for a regeneration scene!

They all need to have their own Day so to speak.
My day was made when this guy arrived...
I'll spend more time with Tom later.
For now he can stay like thus, whilst I wait for number 10.
My Dad should be forwarding him today !
Tom is pretty cool. The shadow is not quite as noticeable , but he does look quite sad !!
