Curious how Golobulus v1 attaches at the waist. Is there an o-ring in there or just some sort of plastic snap joint? I have a pair of them and I'd like to swap their halves, as one has a cleaner lower half and the other has better unworn paint on the head, arms, torso. I did a Youtube search for any videos about it and came up empty. Thanks.

I just re-stickered a Piranha too! Ha.
Also did a MOBAT... Started off with a very dirty MOBAT. I took it completely apart and washed it by hand with soap and water. New decals are nice. The sheer number of them and how small they were pushed me towards getting the ToyHax set rather than RattlerRepros. I just didn't want to cut them all out.

Hey xerofall,
Do you have any pointers or can tell me where to find them, on applying decals. Either from toyhax or just right out of the box. Maybe i am a perfectionist, but it just takes me forever. I use tweezers and just try to make it straight. Thanks |
