Namor needs a bath
namor.JPG Namor outfit from Brian Leitner has arrived and is on a retro Black Adam body. The black dye from his original costum has bled into his skin. Jeidi Jaida has suggested useing benyoil peroxide ( pimple cream ) to remove stains. i will report back here with updates of how this worked. Most of the stains are on his feet and shoulders.

They all seem to be doing that. I noticed it happened on my Hal Jordan Green Lantern.
That Black Adam looks good as Namor though!

Was the material used to make the retro Megos of inferior quality and thats why they are bleeding into the skin?Comment

I believe that the black dye is not washed out of the suit enough.
I was having trouble dyeing some Batman suits so I would only rinse them with cold water.
Then I noticed one of my custom Black Panthers, that I was working on, had that color bleed into a brown DM body. It only had the suit on it for a few days.
It's that PVC that absorbs the excess dye.

almost every doll has the same issue these days. Seems that factories don't prewash the fabric before it gets made into suits. Munsters had the same problem. I think Dr. Who did, too.You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie BanksComment

That head works! Great job.If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.Comment
