How to disassemble your Predator:
Remove backpack, skulls, etc - easy peasy.
Remove Head - Pull straight up
Remove Hands & Feet - pull out, heat may help.
Shoulders - Remove left shoulder armor, breaking the glue, a hair drier may help. Pull arms straight out.
Elbows - Pull straight out. There is a plug at the elbow which can be removed by pulling hard. I believe I used an Allen wrench to pull it out. This will free the netting on the left arm elbow. The netting is glued to the top of the shoulder. Pull the netting up over the arm to paint, but do not totally remove unless you are planning on replacing it.
Torso - Remove the three screws hidden under the back of the skirt. Pull groin apart (ouch) and set legs to the side. Remove the armor, it is glued, but can be pried off fairly easily. Remove plug from bottom of torso, this will free the bottom netting. Remove the neck, this joint can be very tight, so heating will help. The netting can now be removed from the torso and reused if desired.
Legs - Remove the two screws that hold on the shorts/frills. Pry off from top of leg. Knees are just like the elbows, pull apart, then remove the plug holding the netting.
I really need netting for my Preds.
