    How to remove marker from face and head?

    Does anyone out there know how to remove marker coloring from my Dagon? Back in 1981 I was a fan of the A-Team show well, I liked Mr. T so much that I got my Dagon figure and painted his head like Mr. T with a blue marker Of course ruining him which is stupid knowing how much the figures worth now. I just found him in my garage 4-days ago along with a bunch of other goodies. Please let me know what I can do here is a picture of him:

    After 37 years, probably nothing.

    I use rubbing alcohol to remove marker, but like Lonnie said, it's been 37 years, so it probably won't work but it wouldn't hurt to try,

    Well I think he looks beautiful. I'd be tickled three shades of pink if I found his blackened self out in the wild!

    From toddler skin u use sunscreen and a baby wipe. I wonder if the tire wet and plastic would draw the color out...I would use blue plastidip here...its not like it would make it worse honestly...

    IMO, I'd be color-matching and airbrushing over that one

    I just used a product called Remove-zit stain remover to remove sharpie from a head and it worked amazingly. It's made specifically for that purpose.

    Acne cream with a high amount of benzo-peroxide .... Wrap in plastic wrap... Place in sun.... It worked on a gi Joe head I had... You may need to do it a few times... I don't know how it will effect colored plastic though...
    Don't be sorry. How would you know? You've been watching MTV all your life.
