Thanks everyone!

MM arrived yesterday and I'm impressed!

He reminds me of MM + JE with all the fine details.

I filled him with water and a drop of green food colouring and he looks mad, I cant wait to crack this sucker open.

Now that I have him I have been thinking about how to split him.
It looks like there are pegs that are part of his body, so I think I will heat the arms and legs up with a hair dryer and pop them off (boil and pop).

Now to split him im thinking I will use an exacto knife after heating up the join.

What do you guys think?

It's been almost two years, I think if he'd finished it he'd of shown us by now. He hasn't even been here since October.

I guess he didn't live to tell the tale after all.

A cautionary tale for anyone intent on opening up a Mutagen Man...

Hi everyone!

It's been sometime since I have been around.

To be honest I haven't been thinking TMNT for a while.

We moved house had another baby etc - Life happens...

Anyways the new IDW comic has reminded me of my love for TMNT.

I totally forgot about this custom!
I had most things ready to go and the rest is history.

When I get home tonight I will have a look at him and see if I can get something together!

This figure doesn't fetch what it used to, so if you mess up the first time, there is always another one. I have one just laying around taking up space if anyone needs it.

Just got a Mutagen Man figure in the mail (I can't beleive I never had this guy as a kid, he's awesome!), and... age came-a knocking after playing with the limbs- the right leg snapped off with the plastic nub XD Fortnatly, I'm going doing some modding, and he's going to be for display only, so one less movable joint is fine. I originally wanted to open the shell up, as well... then gave up after 10 minutes of trying- all I've done is scratch the sides and risked breaking the damn thing. It's going to take a lot more paitence and something better than an x-acto knife, and I just don't have either.

In the end, I'll either add some grime effect to the case, to hide the organs a bit more:

Or just fill the case up with a thick, and mucky liquid:

This is my first shot at a toy mod... so, hope I don't burn down the house.


When I get some more time, I'd love to make my own figure with my own spin- I have a few designs in mind, one of which is a combo of the 90's and 2012 versions and the other is my own spin on the design, something more graphic - need to share my sketches when I get the chance.
