Hi all, I was wondering if any of you can help with changing the waist/crotch piece on the streetfighter vega figure? I have one mint with a broken crotch and a spare one with crotch intact... With no back screw I have no idea how to swap them over, or if it's even possible. Any tips greatly appreciated

I would say that you could probably pull down the O ring and place a small bar/dowel by the hole (so it doesn't pull up into the torso) and then use some needlenose pliers to unhook the O ring from the T bar hook.
Then do the process in reverse to re-install the unbroken one. Hope that helps! HM

That's what I did in the past for fixing my Storm Shadow, but you risk breaking the o-ring.
I have cracked open one of my Ninja Force Storm Shadow torsos before because I wanted to remove the action feature. If the Oring breaks, that's what you'd have to do.
