Cracking ROC Figures

Post by Koth »

Hello

Can anyone give me some tips on how to take apart ROC figures to customise?
I want to salvage arms, legs and codpiece for upcoming Red Shadow merriment. It's not as if they have screws in their backs and I don't want to break the chest joint unless I have to.

Thanks in advance

for the arms just boil and pop.

the legs you can just unscrew.
the torso's need to be cracked tho.
i think scoobs figured it out but i think you need to hit it with something just under the armpit.
i think theres a tutorial on yojoe

The heads if you want to know koth just need turning slightly and should pop off although some don't right away.

Just an update on this plan...
I tied to knock on the side of table as suggested but didn't work...

so I put them on the floor and hammered them to bits!
Luckily only need arms and legs for trigate :shadow: customs.

Fit like a glove. Mint!
