    Head Shrinking Disaster!!

    I shrank a Playmates Kirk and Riker that look great and I put them on 8in Trek bodies. So I have been a head shrinking fool here lately. Yesterday I brought a PM Scottie and Sulu to work with me to dunk. On the way home I thought well I can dunk and drive....NOT!!! I have a 30 minute drive and in that time Scottie got a small hole in his head. I started to panic and the only thing I could find to fish him out of the jar was a star driver. Well that made his head explode and I got sulu out with just a small rip in his hair. I let the Scottie dry out and shrink then I glued him back together, he kinda looks like he was in a war and since he looks nothing like the mego Scottie he will be a different character that got killed on the away team. The Sulu turned out great, now I'm doing a 9in Bruce Wayne and Data. I am trying to shrink 12in Gi Joe to 9in scale to use up all the 9in headless bodies. Remember DON"T SHRINK AND DRIVE!!!

        Yeah I will take a pic of the Scottie that ripped apart, I glued it with some super glue and I will have to fill in some holes. Does anyone know what to use as filler?

                Really doesn't seem like a good thing to do while driving.

                That said... I'd also like to see pics... both of the successes and of the "after the accident in the engine room" Mr Scott.

                  The Data turned out good as well as Sulu and Bruce Wayne. Scottie is pretty jacked up but I added some glow in the dark nylon paint to his wounds to fill in the two holes its turning out ok it looks like he has the same radiation burns as Captain Pike, but the head is lost in my car LOL.
