 Tim Biskup Gargamel GID Helper/Relphe
A quick question to any of the new owners of this awesome piece from SDCC 09 this year. Some of you might know that there are photos out there of this guy w/o the mask/body on. So it should be removable, however, I can't seem to figure it out. I've tried twisting and trying to shake the guy out of his shell, but nothing works. Can anybody out there who's already managed to remove the body give me a few pointers?
Thanks in advance, much appreciated.

You need to remove the arms.

^ Yes and the arms are very easy to take off and put back on (no hair dryer needed).

 Re: Tim Biskup Gargamel GID Helper/Relphe
ah, i knew there was something else to it. thanks for the tips guys. as far as the tickling goes...apparently i'm not persuasive enough, he didn't even laugh. this one is stubborn as hell, or i'm not amusing with the tickling skills, lol.
thanks again!

 Re: Tim Biskup Gargamel GID Helper/Relphe
I love the expression on Relphe's face. Any news yet on when a painted version is coming out?

 Re: Tim Biskup Gargamel GID Helper/Relphe
I'm hoping for a painted one that matches the painting and the bearbrick. Maybe it will even come with a knife.

 Re: Tim Biskup Gargamel GID Helper/Relphe
I've never seen that be@rbrick before. What I'm sure of is that we'll be seeing a lot of customs on these guys in the next few months or so.

That Bearbrick was part of a BWWT set a few years back.

I just got the one and didn't know much about it and never see it pop up anywhere. I even thought it might have been a gama-go release as the new Relphe has a twin brother known as the Gama Goon.

 Re: Tim Biskup Gargamel GID Helper/Relphe
How big are they? I thought they were pretty small. But $80 makes me think they're mid-sized.

Maybe but they 'seemed' a lil' smaller when looking at 'em on the table . . . maybe down to the simplistic nature of the sculpt!
