  For torso swapping it will be a newer elite and a older elite can i just crack the bottom of the torso to swap them and if I need to fully crack them what glue do I use also to see how others make it can you make an elite jeans and black vest drew McIntyre

  For Elites, you need to fully crack them. I only use Gorilla Glue Super Glue Gel. Make sure it's the gel or it can run on you.

  Thanks for posting this. I've had very mixed results depending on how well they were glued together haha, but putting the arms like you showed is definitely the best way to get initial leverage without destroying the plastic. Another thing that one can do (this goes for taking anything apart) is to take a picture as you go so that you've got a reference point for reassembly.

If you’re Scottish, I recommend the Free Church of Scotland and the APC.

  With each of these figures, I popped their arms off at the bicep swivel and plugged in new arms with the double-jointed elbows. This makes the wrist pegs compatible with all swappable hands. The only thing is the older pegs are fatter if I recall and you gotta trim them with cutters.
