big trouble in little china wang chi, its dennis duns likeness

Thank you very much for the info! I appreciate it.

Thanks! That's a top tip! In the end I found another shop that sold those paints - but I'll bear this in mind for next time!

What you can do is get a program like Photoshop, take a picture of the thing and import the picture. Select the color on the screen then go to the RGB color picker in the program. It'll show you where on the spectrum of colors it falls. This way you can see that if the purple falls somewhere closer to blue than red, then you should mix in some blue. If it falls closer to desaturated than saturated, you could mix in some gray to desaturate it a little.

You can do these steps:
1. Heat up the elbow in hot water.
2. Cut and remove the broken joint.
3. Drill a small hole in the elbow where you can insert a toothpick.

It may be possible with REPEATED boilings of the same parts over an extended period of time, but how often is that going to happen unless you're an obsessive continually updating and revising the same figure? It could also be the case with knock offs using lower quality paints and plastics, and, fact is, plastics will degrade and become brittle with age and surrounding environmental conditions (whether they are displayed in routine direct sun or UV light, exposu ...

Thanks man, yeah it definitely sounds like a conspiracy theory or something haha! I did think as I was reading that forum post “why is boil and pop so popular then if it’s “damaging/changing plastic on a molecular level” if it did anything of the sort no one would be using it, I think most collectors are pretty precious about their figures, I know I am, so no one would be doing it in that case! But glad to hear you’ve had no problems with the figures you did it to, I got a bit paranoid about the ones I did it to after I read that theory!
