Now that I look at it again, it could probably be extended a couple millimeters without consequence. | 1-2mm would do it. Would be nice for him to look like he does on the card
Did this mod a little while ago, btw, and he looks much better now. Strange he doesn't just come that way, though... |

Help? |

Help? | Can you see the pic? If you can, and you pull Swindle's head off (it can pop right off), it should be obvious.
Use an X-acto knife, or other sharp cutting instrument. I guess I though that was obvious.
The plastic will cut easily if you have a sharp enough knife. |

It wasn't obvious how it was done to me. I've never done subtle touch-ups to existing figures before... |

Thanks Death333 for the mention! |
