    Shrinkin' heads

    Can the larger bat man and capt america heads be shrunken properly to fit the 8" figures?

    I got two heads in a lot of junk from ebay. I have tried to do this before but wasn't able to get the heads to 8" size. They did shrink however.

    I know there's a link to instructions so if anyone would like to be so kind as to direct I'd be appreciative.

    Unforynately I don't have the funds to pay someone to do it right now so short of making a deal, I'm on me own.

    Are you talking about Mego heads or Hasbro?

      As for the other, if it's a 12-inch magnetic Batman head, I'd like a shrink of it myself.

          It takes a while to learn just how long to soak a head before it will burst. as the head expands it gets very soft and can break up. If you haven't shrunk heads with mego before get some junk vintage ones to practice (the ctct aer a denser material and shrink at a different rate) i started out with batman and fonzie heads I had lots of those
