He says in his perfect english that he heated the shell with a hairdryer. I remember another post that a guy did the same thing by dipping the figure into boiled water and pulling the torso, which came out pretty easilyoh, thank you! will watch. i believe it will be really important in future, as those pegs just want to be broken.

after watching that video and seeing the inner construction i think it's best to just disassemble all turtles and make the groin holes for leg joints slightly bigger or, if it's not the hole size problem but the ratcheting problem, to cut off the ridges on pegs.
it's a pity he didn't show how he managed to take the shell part off without cutting it.
thanks for this info. i guess i fast-forwarded the beginning without sound.He says in his perfect english that he heated the shell with a hairdryer. I remember another post that a guy did the same thing by dipping the figure into boiled water and pulling the torso, which came out pretty easily
mirror wall is exactly what is needed for these figures to see both their fronts and back shells in all glory. i must do the same when i'll be deciding how to expose them.
Watched the 1990 movie yesterday. Fantastic movie. It really makes my admiration for the NECA figures even bigger. They are perfect in my view. Just waiting for Mike now!

Anyone have an coupon code for Entertainment Earth that works?
Someone should just make a few replacement bandannas. One thing I did like about secret of the ooze was the longer bandanas.Thinking of going ahead and buying another Leonardo after I get Mikey - hopefully Mikey won't have any issues - I don't know when I'll get around to getting the paints I need to fix the problems on Leo's head or if I'd even be successful with it at that. But also - merely to have a spare, indeed an 'organ donor'. In addition to that I'm wondering if subsequent Leo batches might have longer bandanas....
Yeah my Donnies is short but don't feel like buying an whole new figure just for the bandanna length.The ones on my Leo seem to be a tad shorter than the bandanas on the other two. It's the inconsistency I don't like. It doesn't actually look bad in and of itself.
Amazon has the best deal. Get a 6-pack for $30. And they're black.
Kaiser Doll standsThat's awesome. Are they they change by waist versions? What are they called?
I looked and it just seem like all the chubby waist stands are white. Any suggestions where to get black or what black paint to use?
