 Adding BB's into a Clear Figure Probably a very easy task but before I start tearing arms or heads of my clear vinyl figures I wanted to ask my peeps the safest way to put bb's into a figure?
I have a clear Organ Bat, Mutant Head, and Skull Kun that I would like to add GID and color bb's.
Thanks for any assistance.

Thanks for any assistance. yes the rxh items I know come apart, no BxH in my collection. If worried about ripping the vinyl, just heat up with hair dryer to soften up the vinyl for simple removal, and same for re attach

i have glow bb's in my clear skull kun.
looks cool but just a word of warning, it makes the figure VERY heavy and as such it will start to lean over forward (i adjust it back every once in awhile with heat/cold water)
also, beware of taking the feet off kuns to add bb's they are a total I FART A LOT to get back on

Use a funnel in a controlled area.
Otherwise you run the risk of BBs going everywhere...

I keep my BBd figures by my bedside in case a burglar breaks in. I can wig it at his head for the quick knockout.

Also thanks for the heating vinyl, funnel and the burgler deterent ideas
