Is there a how to guide anywhere on splitting lower torsos (to add a BFS upper body adapter) or splitting the upper torso (to switch out arms)?
Can anyone with experience advise how difficult it is? I always hated splitting modern Joe torsos - 1/2 the time I’d destroy the torso. What I wouldn’t give for the return of the back screw! |

If you want to swap upper arms on a Valk do you have to crack the torso or is heating and popping them out enough?

You have to crack them open. They are just like Joes, except with dimensions that aren't compatible...d'oh!

Won't the skirts from the Zombie Labs KS work as they are advertised as being Hacks compatible?

This is my hope. It's the only reason I bought two of them from BBTS.

Or...maybe MJ has a really amazing surprise in store for us, and the female agency ops will come with alternate "skirt lowers." I guarantee that won't happen, but how cool would that be?

I still don't understand why it didn't happen to begin with, but oh well.

They split easy and when you see the inside, you can tell they were designed to be able to glue back easily. Jason |
