I took a razor knife and slid it under the respirator part of the mask. The round piece on the front is not molded to the rest of the head, but plugged into the front.

The whole thing took about 15 minutes.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Looks much better than <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/ant1m_ant.php\">the original<\/a>!<\/p>\n<div class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Posts\"><H5>&lt;i&gt;And now, some more OAFEry:&lt;\/i&gt;<\/H5><ul class=\"entry-meta\"><li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Infinity War trailer made with toys\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2017\/12\/infinity-war-trailer-made-with-toys\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Infinity War trailer made with toys<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Marvel Legends Squadron Supreme\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2024\/04\/marvel-legends-squadron-supreme\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Marvel Legends Squadron Supreme<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Marvel Legends Madame Masque addendum\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2026\/05\/marvel-legends-madame-masque-addendum\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Marvel Legends Madame Masque addendum<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"I see a Warlock and I want it painted black\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2023\/05\/i-see-a-warlock-and-i-want-it-painted-black\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">I see a Warlock and I want it painted black<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Selectively stocking at Toys \"&#1071;\" Us\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2018\/05\/selectively-stocking-at-toys-us\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Selectively stocking at Toys \"&#1071;\" Us<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This was done by one of our readers: I've wanted to modify my Ant-Man to close the mouth opening for as long as I have had the figure.
