by the way, how the hell do you split them?!
i've split most of them already so i'll send you an assortment of whats lying around and see what you come up with.
i may have a couple i havent split.
everyone has they're own way of splitting them- using a stanley knife at the crotch then inserting something and just cracking them.
i like to boil and pop the limbs first then go to work with a blade.

seen him b4, he looks great! want to send a figure to someone & get him dyed black!
by the way, you can stop the face from dyeing by masking it with rubber glue!

If I had known that beforehand !
although I dont really mind his red face too much, he looks evil !
The problem with Joe's is .. the plastic is very hard so it takes a while for the dye to penetrate, thats when the warping starts !
