How to prepare a Marvel Legends with Butterfly joints for paint

[@cbrock5529]

This is really going to help me out, I’ve always hated the paint rub on my customs.

[@Romir616]

Thanks Brock! Really helpful.

[@rainwalkerstudios3388]

Really great to see you uploading again. Also, this is super useful. I heard Omega Red was tough to fix paint rub on, so I'm glad you used this as the example.

[@justinbrown5722]

Gonna share this to my customs group

Yea B my bad happy fathers day😊😎😎

Welcome back Brock! Saludos.

[@ben_ovr9230]

Can you show how to crack the waist piece?

[@LifewithBrock]

I have a couple videos on here showing that. Check them out 👍🏻

[@mafiamanveto3004]

Thanks this is definitely the thing I was worried about most.

[@bjpalm1994]

Great vid Brock! Perfect timing, I was using an Omega Red for a custom of mine and was wondering about the butterfly joint paint rub.

Take off the middle post inside the chest cavity too

How to u reattach the disc hinge in the shoulder after u remove the shoulder from it? Like Im assuming ure able to remove it cuz u cut some peg with ur knife

[@maddestmike5791]

I've had so much trouble trying to get the shoulder disk hinges out of my Marvel Legends Spymaster. I can't tell if this figure uses butterfly joints. What should I do for figures that don't have butterfly joints?

[@chickenchad9814]

Thanks for the heads up, I would have been pretty upset if I drilled right into those butterfly joints

[@justinbrown5722]

To avoid having to crack use a exacto knife and dremel it’s pretty dangerous lol

[@syedshahar]

Hi Brock, can the shoulder peg be popped off the butterfly joint without cutting it? I want to swap shoulders/arms on some wolverines

[@LifewithBrock]

Hello. Someone suggested that it could be done but I’ve not done it.

[@TacticalJ83]

what do you use to fill in the holes you drilled?

[@LifewithBrock]

Apoxie putty. Check out the tutorial videos on here. I go over all the basics 👊🏻

[@suhtangwong]

Why do you guys cut the shoulders? Won't you have to glue it again? Jw. I normally just heat it up and pop off the swivel piece and dremel along the swivel.

[@LifewithBrock]

I may have to try that instead next time.

[@suhtangwong]

Omega red was a PAIN! It's still a very new body and I've only seen 1 picture of the inside so it was a guess on where to drill. Very awesome mold but kinda hard to pop open and put back.

[@LifewithBrock]

Super hard. I think it’s because the plastic is thinner.

[@hunkamunka24]

Who is it going to be

[@LifewithBrock]

I think either Sabretooth or Thunderball

[@muursnorthwestamexem8581]
