I picked one up from guruplanet for 75 DOLLARS! It is mint except it has a bit of yellowing, I have read about peroxide treatment that brings these things back to life.. my question is, since this is THE collector item of 3 3/4 joes, should I do it?

It has been known to alter reds... ...anyone have a shiddy one they can try it on ?...I assume the paint used on the MM symbol is different then the paint used on the reg symbol.

yeah, buy a beat to shit one and test it out before, no matter what people say on here about it. And I think the Gold Head Steel Brigade is THE Collector's Item of the line. nice score tho! Good luck.

here I was thinking pimp daddy destro was THE collectors item of the line. give the peroxide a shot but a test run sounds like a good idea

leave it alone. also just a note, its not mint if it has yellowing.it is not worth using peroxide on figures like the commander that have silver face paint, a rare misprinted logo or painted stripes down his leg..
its like having a $100 bill and checking to see if it is fire proof. not a good idea
