Boy, you're fast! Do you notice the looseness that John mentioned? How about
this challenge... can he hold a piece of chain link from say a Ninja Treasure
Transport (6033) or Air Zep? It doesn't have to be a death grip... well if it
were REAL it almost would... :)
And now here's a hypothetical... PLEASE don't do this as quick as the last
one... :) If you want to try it I don't want to be responsible!...
any thoughts as to how you might stain or dye the Technic head to match the
Belville hands? Or even use on all of the skin to tone it down to a lower
uniform shade?
Thanks again!
