So this question may have been asked a thousand times already, if so here's 1001. Is the orange paint on Stormys upper body and arms safely removable? If so what is the best product to use without damaging the plastic?

Nail polish remover, the non acetate I think it is removes paint, but the internal swivels of the shoulders and feet I would think would be molded in orange.

Shoulder joint is orange plastic so is lower legs and feet. Just scraped the parts with a razor to check.

Awesome guys thank you! I've got a couple of extra Storm Shadows and thinking of doing a little mixing and matching to see if I can come up with something. Geeze I used to be so creative with model cars and such, but with time (I am the Cobra grandpa after all....and just like G.I. Joe, I turn 50 this year too!) The eyes are fading....that sucks! I had forgotten the Nail polish remover process. Thanks again.

Try "Goo Off".
But test it on some fodder figs first. I can't guarantee if it works or not.
