How many of you - like me - have at least one ham-fisted Power Team or glove-hand Action Man whose hands you would like to upgrade to "normal?" If you would like to see a tutorial on how to replace those over-sized mitts, check Studio 126's post on his Adventures in Playscale blog.
May you enjoy the photos.

Thanks for that link! I don't use a hair dryer so it's good to know that I can give hot water a try for separating joints.
The latest Petes [Power Teamers] already have removable hands. Their trouble is bare hands (with matching skin color) are difficult to find. I think the earlier version of the PTs had removable hands [for dressing], too, but mine are all bare-handed.
Hi Muff and Studio 126 - and thanks for commenting!
@Muff - I love how much I can learn seeing different kitbashers at work. Great way to expand techniques ;-)
@Studio 126 - I prefer human hands to gloves so that upgrade sounds great to me. Alas, several of mine have gloved hands and a few - two I can think of off the top of my head - have those early ham fists.
I need to see what hands I have on - "hand," lol, yes, I went there. So that my guys can have bare hands. Tiresome to have so many of them with a backstory of hand damage resulting in 24/7 glove use ;-)
Oh and the PT guys are called, "Petes?" That is cute.
@D7ana- I use nicknames a type of shorthand for different figure types. Some are already established (within their genre). Others I make up as needed. Other people can use them, if they want to, but don't have to.
My current index of nicknames can be found at Sextiliana, the Playscale Wiki
@D7ana- ...and thanks for your "gripping" response. ;)
@Studio 126 - oh, I like nicknames. I "created" "DAF" myself for doll and action figure. So as not to leave one or the other out ;-)
Thanks for the link to other nicknames.
You're welcome. The guys must get tired of always "gripping," lol.
