I want to take apart a Thor Frost Giant for a custom. Does anyone know if removing the pins in the lower legs and thighs is the same as Joes? Do I just need to heat it up and then pop the side off over the pin? Or will this damage the figure and will I not be able to get it back on? I think the elbows are like this as well. Can I remove those those pins in a similar fashion? Thanks for the advice!!!

I don'tthink they are same as the joes. from all my figures they look different sizes. You can still do it, but may require some shaving.
The best way to disassemble has been puttingit in hot water for me it makes the whole plastic soft

Correct, but can the pins come out after you heat it up?, Both the elbow and knees?

Yes, heat it up and the pins come out much the same as with Joes. The Thor figures had more solid plastic than later marvel/joe figs (not as flimsy) so you have to work quick once it's hot.

And if they were actual Secret Wars repros, I might be into it, but this is straight junk.

My man. My thoughts exactly. I'd have been all over secret wars rereleases.I have a nice 4" Marvel Univese collection already. This is trash for hipster fake geeks. They'll sell better at Urban outfitters with the rest of the posers.

Right on. That’s about the sum of it.
