    No, on YJA. I've never even seen a zone fighter on ebay. Like a lot of Popy's it has serious standing issues. Got a Ninja Arash via ebay in today and it likes to leannnnnn back.... :lol: (Then fall over)

    Lixx have you tried giving the vinyl a new memory with hot water ? - to make them stand properly

    Oh wow really (ebay)? I guess I just get weary of searching Redman (and getting fucking the rapper Redman), searching Thundermask (and getting a bunch of masks), and Zone Fighter (and getting some fitness dvd).

    I've tried the hair dryer trick, setting the legs under cold water. They usually bounce back after a few weeks though. I've even used cold water, then put them in the freezer but they still reset.

    HAHA... bullmark = hallmark ... popy = poppy gives me the shits and makes me type with my angry finger !

    that's the only zone man ive ever seen on ebay (was a mini one)

    I have found that a good few minutes in just boiled water does the job (but keep it moving) especially for askew feet .. then under the tap in cold water while holding the desired position

    Nice man, each one of those is a real stunner. I could not possibly pick a favourite between the two of them, sculpt, detail, pose, paint colours - all beautiful for the pair. Whereas the more realistic one might edge out the other in terms of 'accuracy', the crude bootleg, Star Wars style body, and green boots make it as as loveable.
