Question Regarding Customizing BBI Figures

Post by vince_chua » Wed Apr 21, 2010 2:36 am

Hi all,

I'm new to the BBI Figures and I want to swap parts for them.

Can I just boil the figure and pull out its head and Shoulder joints or are there other methods?

Please advice.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Vince

Some of the BBI heads can fit on the 21st Century XD bodies.

Hi Razor17019, thanks for the info but I find the 21st Century bodies have very bad legs. And I only have the figures that come with the humvee and the Super Cobra.

Maybe the head on the BBI figures?

I'm actually thinking of getting more BBI "Chopper" Harris and swapping their heads with other figures so that I have more Heli pilots. :D

The neck/peg on the XD head has to be sliced to fit in the BBI socket.
Many times with the two types, it's trial and error method.
Good luck!
