Any one have any ideas? | I would try goo gone. I used that stuff to take bubbles off of hot wheel cars for customs. It works good but you have to have patience. Use a crap card for tests. That way you can see how much to put on the card and how much pressure to use when removing bubble.
Be careful though, you can pull the cardboard up in this process. When the card is well soaked (the area where the bubble is place on), slowly start to pull the bubble up on one corner and continue to apply solvent where the bubble is coming up. Continue until it comes off. Hope this helps. |

I opened one (before I realized what it would be worth), kept one carded, sold one on ebay. and traded the others to members of this forum. I think that makes 6 for me as well. |

| | owner, MMAspot.net Join Date: May 2008 Location: New Joesey Posts: 286 | Got one MOC that I found at retail when 25th first debuted at a KMart that has offered me nothing before or after that point. Kind of ironic.
I plan to keep him.

I didn't know there were going to be two different Stalkers. I wasn't seriously collecting them then, like I am now.
Anyways, I put him on the pegs not thinking a thing......I kick myself every time i think about it. :( |
TЯU has all the rarities. but yea,...i agree, i thought he looked lame so i passed back in december. hope that makes you feel better. you not only one. life's a bitch at times. |
