    Kenner Six Million Dollar Man and Bionic Woman replacement arm skin

    These used to be available on ebay but I can't find them anymore. I think the seller was from Australia? Does anyone have any leads or resources on replacement skins for these figures?

    Thank in advance!

    Tan balloons, trimmed. I saw it in a youtube Toy Polloi repair video. Cost-effective, looks authentic.

      ^ It really is ALWAYS the simplest answer and I never think of it on my own.

                Now the trick is to find tan/beige/flesh balloons. So far? Nearly impossible.

                  "flesh balloon" is just wow, such a powerful word.

                    Would these work?

I could only find the teardrop shape near me I have to try another Party Supply store till I find the correct shape. I know this sounds bad. Maybe they are easy to find in UK?

                          Thanks. The color isn't too far off from what I can tell but they would need to be pencil balloons. The type they make balloon animals out of.

                            ^ Sorry.

                            Try looking up a company called "Qualatex". Mocha Brown or Blush pencil balloon. I was more concerned about showing that the colors exist and didn't focus on the shape.
