Big thanks to everyone for their help with Data. I boiled him this morning & after a few curses & blasphemes, the little ball popped straight out of the shoulder socket.

I put the Borg arm in & also attached the borgified head....I like it soo much I am going to have to buy another Data anyway to display in regular outfit.


Glad to see it worked out for you. Now think of all the easy customs you can now make~!

What paint did you use for the customizing chair? It looks great.

Whilst using the plyers the straight connector bit completely snapped off. There is nothing more than the ball itself in the socket, there is nothing to grab onto.

I thought about pulling him apart...but it doesn't look like he'd go back together nicely!


While he is still soft from the hot water, get a small flat head screwdriver, slide it along the side af the ball. Once you get to the back of the ball, just pop it out. Don't worry about bending the plastic too much. Plastic has a memory and when it cools it will go back to it's original shape.

Against my better judgement, I decided to try the Borg arm...the little ball joint snapped in half. I tried using plyers (sp) but it wasn't coming out. I changed the head...it worked fine.

At the moment Data's arm is held on with blu-tac. I thought I might cut the ball joint off the Borg arm & glue it there also using the Borgified head, then I can buy a new FC Data to use as the normal version...& I won't be touching his damn arm!  biggrin.gif

Can International folk send things back to DST?

Anyway overall I am happy with him, along with FC Picard & Nem Worf who I received. Though I still feel Data's head is the weakest of the bunch (possibly more uninspiring than Zombie Bev!).


Just put Data in some near boiling water for about a minute to soften him up, pull out the ball stuck in him and use the one on the other arm while he is still soft to get which ever Data you are looking to display. It's pretty easy and safe.
