Fellow arkers, Bah-weep-Graaaaagnah wheep ni ni bong! For the past days I've been looking at figures at the realm, those figs are from RE. There was this customizer, his username was BDCdiesel, and his custom S.T.A.R.S. Albert Wesker from RE1, this is the fig Albert Wesker (RE1 - S.T.A.R.S.) Custom Action Figure, he dremeled his RE1 Chris Redfield from NECA, and turned the torso,from 7 inches(I think) to a 6 inch torso. Thats just cool! I was wondering, how do you do that thing? Can someone tell me how? If someone can, thank you.

Sorry man, I can't, but I can definitely have that Weird Al song from the movie stuck in my head again. Thanks!

It's rather extensive work but the outcome is worth it as you can tell. If you look closely you can tell where there is a slight seam where the "insision" was made. You have to strategize a good point in the torso to take the exes away from, then unite the two halves. You don't want to cut from a joint but where there is more plastic. It's like cutting your torso from your belly button and reuniting it at the bottom of your lower rib. He shortened his arms too by cutting at the bysep. You may need some epoxy scult. Then you paint to match. The dremel head you use is the flat black one I believe.
