    Also, I have to say that these figures have not aged at all well. The bodies are extremely floppy. The glue on the helmet has cracked and discolored. Double-sided tape was used to position the belt in front and has left a sticky, oily residue on the bodysuit.

      Question--I was able to very cleanly crack apart a figure to extract a head--do you want the pieces & replace the elastic for the legs?

        Yikers!
        Can you post a pic of how cracked it is? Would I be able to Seal the Crack with Super Glue, or is it so bad that it can't be sealed?
        ( Hopefully a straight seam crack along the sides of the torso?)

        Just trying to get a sense of what I'll be working with here.....Still interested though....
