Indiana Jones figures

Post by Muton »

Does anyone know how to dismantle these? They seem exceptionally well put together with no obvious point to split them apart at!

Thanks Scoobydie, How did you get the legs off then, just pull them very hard?

Just tried to seperate the legs from him just now , and didn`t succeed!
It will involve pulling him apart, with the added danger of loosening the leg joints, and because of the black paint not taking to him especially well, coming off on my hands :(

What I did find was after the initial painting and waiting to dry, trying to push him back together caused the air to turn blue as the paint rub occured!
Tough little bugger to deal with :)

Next time, I`m leaving the legs on........

Thanks again Scooby, clearly whoever made these figures didn't want people messing about with them! A screwdriver sorted it, but very hard work!
