I dunked her head in warm water, that did the trick.

Lol, you're braver than me. I'd be worried about compromising the paint job by getting it wet.

 

[Alatar]

Lol. I?m not sure how I feel asking my wife to borrow her hair gel to style my dolly

Ask her to do it, lol she'll probably enjoy playing with it.

Anyway, I did it with mine and was just very careful not to get any gel on the face. Although it probably wouldn't harm the paint job, you never know.

Well crap! She doesn't use any hair styling products. Any other suggestions?

 

[Alatar]

Buy some?

Smuggle it in like the rest of us

Smuggle it in like the rest of us

I may have to.

So super glue it is then. Thanks!

Gents, I highly recommend toupee tape from any beauty supply store. It's double-sided, incredibly strong yet removable with no residue. A lot less risky than super glue.

The kneepads on mine were coming loose.

While fixing them, I decided to glue her harness to her body. I thought about doing this before, but ultimately chickened out.

I now regret not doing this months ago, as it finally sits properly.

What areas did you apply the glue to the harness?

Would blue tack do the same thing?

 

[bmarz1000]

I wouldn't recommend it. Blue Tack can leave a residue and it's hard to use if you're trying to get something to "lay flat" without leaving a bulge. Also, it can stain cloth. Toupee tape has been used to properly futz products (especially 1:6 action figures) for a while now! It's perfect to get lapels/collars to lay down, keep harnesses and leather goods in place, keep shirts from riding up, etc. It's really strong, thin, double-sided tape that's totally removable with no residue. I love it!

Thanks for the info. I'll have to try it. Can you buy it locally anywhere or do you have to get it from a online store?

It should be available at any beauty supply store like Sally's. It's used for men's toupee's and some women use it to hold their dresses in place so they don't show off their goodies.

Great! I actually have a Sally's here locally. Thanks again!

Thanks for the recommendation! I was also thinking about using fabric glue for the harness, but in my experience, it's been a weak bond, so the tape may be a better option.

I'd go the tape route first of all, as recommended by others. Less scary and reversible.

I don't plan on selling this figure. At best, I'll replace the headsculpt when the new WW84 figure drops.

Can Hot Toys buy the rights to these sculpts and mass-produce them?

Why would they?

They have their in-house sculptors who failed even when they did 3D scans.
