I want to display mine with the skeleton out too, but I was afraid to take the feet off. It looked like it would be a pain to get them back on, and I didn't want to go the hair dryer route to loosen it up.

U should be ok with teh hair dryer. The vinyl is unpainted so no (however slim) chance of paint crackage.

Cool, thanks Carl. I'm a vinyl hair dryer virgin (wow, that's a sweet new signature text!), so I don't want to screw it up.

Is this the first version released? I remember seeing an all clear body with black innards in some TTF pics. I hope that wasn't a TTF exclusive.

You probably wont even need a hair dryer with clear vinyl, usually its so soft you can just pop it apart. And I have NEVER ever seen paint crack on vinyl that was sprayed with V-color never. The vinyl will bubble first but that paint will never crack. These toys are much more durable than everyone thinks. Its funny when everyone is so gentle when handling them

Success!   It definitely took the hair dryer, the inner skeleton is much bigger than the hole to get it out of. After removing the bottom part (and getting both of the skeleton's feet off), I just blew the hairdryer up the holes where the feet came out of, softening the whole skeleton. Then I just grabbed, squished it in a bit, and voila! I just hope I never have to get it back in there.

Good to know. I like on the inner skeleton piece, there is a stack of hamburgers in his stomach. At first I thought it was just his spine. |
