I'm thinking about getting that white lantern. I've seen the black lantern hal jordan as well but I keep passing. I like the blue lantern flash also.

I had these when I was growing up. Man I loved them. The only toy out there that you can smash to peices and them put them back together! Good Times.
I totally remember those! My brother and I had the car they came in, but we only had one figure. Wow, I haven't thought of them in probably 15 years!

And here's what I just got:

Found the flash today at frys. That place seems to have good DC guys right now. No MU though. Like nothing at all.

I want to rub the tats off mine and make a Dutch from Predator.

Has anyone done this or does anyone plan to, and how would you go about it?

Try 91% Isoprpyl alcohol on a cotton swab, should come off with little effort.

Do you think it will melt the plastic?

Would "Goof Off" work? What about non-acetone nail polish remover?

I'm worried about the plastic and taking off his hair, eyebrows, eyes by accident.

No the alcohol won't damage the plastic.
The paint apps on figures use a technique called tampography. Apps are called tampos often. It is more akin to ink than paint, but alcohol will work fine. Use 70 % or 90% if you are worried about the 91%. Just be prepared for a little more elbow grease.

Denatured alcohol will work really nicely, but is ethanol based and pretty aggressive. I'm not sure how it will affect the soft plastic of the figure.

I do strongly suggest using a cotton swab as opposed to soaking the parts for the very reason of preserving the face/hair apps.

A quick bit of a hunt at my local Wal-Mart yielded Electro for me today:

The Blue Lantern Flash is my favorite. Now I gotta get the Black and White Lantern Flashes. I have yet to see the Black Lantern Hal Jordan at retail.

Alcohol makes everything better, Hank.


Kidding aside, that's some great advice....going to the hardware store tomorrow to get some alcohol, strip Captain Britian and make Rom: Spaceknight!
