I'm working on a 1/6 ANSA Taylor Cotswold mash-up built on a super clean, vintage Mego Superman muscle bod. I've not messed around with these bodies before and have noticed the hands are cast in a very stiff plastic in comparison to their 1/9 counterparts.
Any insight or wisdom in manipulating these hands in order to hold accessories? Will the old hot water soak yield similar results on these hands without cracking/breaking?
Has anyone opted to swap these vintage hands for modern versions better suited to hold things, and if so, do you recommend a brand? Having worked with HT and SS bodies, I'm already aware of the significant differences in modern wrist post/plugs assemblies.
Any thoughts are most appreciated.
