Also, what kind of paint do you guys use on Lego?  I have seen some cool
Yodas around.  Plus, no matter what everyone says, I want to make a brown
Mace Windu.  Nothing political.  I just want a brown mini-fig.  Does the
paint scratch off, especially off the hands?

And finally, what temperature does Lego actually melt at.  I was thinking
about making some custom hair pieces.  I want to mold Sculpey on Lego
mini-fig heads and bake them to get the right fit.  But I am concerned that
Lego will melt.

Thanks.
