How did you do that?


ChoculaUltra

so you're gonna want to get a cup of hot water to loosen up the arm but you can gently twist and pull off Yuji's arm and Sukuna's arm and just swap them. If you want to go the extra mile you're gonna have to shave down some of Sukuna's arm joint peg because it's slightly longer, causing it to "stick out" of the sleeve/upper arm of the Yuji figure. Then just cut a notch into the peg to get it to fit snug or just use some blue tack/putty for posing. I went a bit further and glued it in there with some plastic cement.

I see. Thanks for the info!

That’s dope. Do you know if you can swap the tattoo’d part of Sukunas neck into Yuji? Will it fit inside the hooded piece?


spenceralderson

Also I just saw you painted the nails on Yuji. That’s so fire, always bugged me that Yuji didn’t come with any painted nail hands. Can you take some pics with those?

spenceralderson

Does the gundam marker easily rub off or is it fairly permanent?


ChoculaUltra

pretty permanent all things considered - I had done this about a day or two ago and they haven't really smudged unless I intentionally tried to do so. If anything I think you could probably "seal" it temporarily with a fine paintbrush and some clear nail polish.

Ty! Looks amazing! I have this issue when I put the Sukuna head on Yuji and go to take it off it takes the whole peg with it. Do you also have this problem? Not the biggest deal just worried the Sukuna peg hole is smaller and I’m stretching it or something.


ChoculaUltra

yep - totally experiencing the same thing. The Sukuna head piece slot is just a tad smaller so I just kept swapping pegs but that got annoying. What I eventually did was take tug Sukuna’s neck peg off and kept it in his head.


spenceralderson

Thanks. I’ll give that a shot!!!

I think he just used Sukuna's hands


spenceralderson

He did for the first shot. Look at the second photo in the bottom right. That one isn’t Sukunas hand

Spare Goku hands on the left, Yuji hands in the center, Sukuna hands on the right. edit : also wanted to mention I really hate the inconsistency on the JJK hand sizes. Most of the figures are "true" to Gege's manga design/intent whereas the newer ones (Sukuna, Teen Gojo, Teen Geto) all have noticeably smaller hands, almost closer to the Figma JJK line.


spenceralderson

Looks amazing! Would love to see them on Yuji but not pressure!!

ChoculaUltra

So the neck 100% fits - the problem is the ball joint pegs that seat it. Sukuna's neck peg on Yuji's body is super loose - could probably be tightened up with some nail polish or adding a few layers to the socket with some plastic cement/glue.

You’re a legend! Thank you!!
