How to Crack Action Figures: Master's of the Universe King Greyskull - a look inside AFD
This time I'm going to crack open a Master's of the Universe King Greyskull figure. I'm going to go over what I find inside and mention the differences I notice between this figure and a Marvel Legends figure. The basics of opening a figure are pretty simple even though are a lot of differenntechniques. I tried to do this whole crack without power tools but i had to break out the drill in the end. Knowing what's in side a figure can be helpful you're ever planning to do a custom or repair.

The answer is yes, you can definitely use a hair dryer to disassemble a figure. if you use a hair dryer to take an action apart you have the benefit of being able to pinpoint where you want to heat.

Storing my 1/6 action figures

Since I no longer have the space I used to I'm putting my 1/6 action figures away. I'm storing them in a way that will make them pretty easy to get to if I need one. I'm choosing to go with my figures standing just because I don't want to have any pressure from figures piled one on top of the other. For now this will work for me.

    • @609collector
      @609collector 2 месяца назад

      @kyoufuwooshieteyarou7206 depends on the figures. A lot of mezco figures have different pegs. You could adjust the pegs to make them fit. There's no guarantee on peg compatability. Worst case scenario there is always glue. You could possibly drill a hole into the lower thigh of a ML figure and insert the knee from a Mezco figure. But that may not be a great fit. You could cut the shins and glue the figures together there. Then you'd have to putty and paint. There's not a lot of space in that area so it could get dicey.

My figure fell off the balcony of a five story building, and while it landed on bushes, the leg snapped off from the hip. Its not a part that can be disassembled, but it might be possible to build a new pin to connect the upper thigh piece to the hip joint.

      Not for kicks but for educational purposes. I wanted to customize the figure and I wanted to share what I found. I was also able to sell the pieces to recoup the losses. I started selling mezco parts before most other people. It's how I was able to get back my money for some of the figures that had gone down in price. Suicide Squad Harley quinn was only selling for about $65 when I wanted to sell her. The parts however sold for over $120 when I took her apart. I sold the heads, body, clothes, weapons, accessories all separately and made my money back. As far as Batman is concerned there were a lot of valuable pieces there too. How would you replace a broken mezco elbow or knee joint? Some one would have to take one apart and be willing to sell the piece you need. Also I'm pretty sure I needed a replacement joint for one of my of my Deadpool figures.

    If I'm not entirely mistaken the pinless joints are manufactured by a multi-casting process versus single casting and them assembly with pins. The joint gets put into another mould and then the appendage gets cast over the joint. Since it's two different materials they don't bond so it allows the joint to move freely, the only way to separate them (in my experience) is to use a razor blade and carefully slice the interior peg close to the edge - I suppose once your mods/painting is finished you could just super glue that cut piece back.

    • @609collector
      @609collector 8 месяцев назад

      That's diabolical. Super glue wouldn't be the most reliable but I'm sure with a tiny screw and a pinhole driller you make the superglue work and a form or reinforcement. Thanks for the comment I'll keep it in mind.

    WHen I break the pegs like that, I drill them out ( the hand drill bit holder that you turn with your wrist) , and then try to glue pegs in one side, then join them to the other. If you dont have left over plastic runners from a model kit or something then you can use toothpicks or I guess try to cut the teeth on a plastic fork down ( or plastic toothpicks if they are close in diameter). I guess if youre going to do it a lot, but styrene rods that are that diameter and cut them for length.
