After they're "soft," it's easy to pop them apart and go nuts customizing. But if they start to cool, drop them in for another quick soak before continuing.

Series 2 doesn't suffer from the same rigidity/fragility issues as Series 1, so the hands are easy to swap out. But just as a rule of thumb, I'd still boil 'n dip them before popping them apart.

Excellent, thank you! I'm just planning to swap out Condor's and Steel Brigade's legs to get the Steel Brigrade a little closer to the original figure's color scheme.

I used Rollout's legs and Duster's upper body. Similar in color but no QC issues. ;)
