I've a question about the black 64 body Joe with the Tom Stone Head and hard hands. Not the muscle body Tom Stone. I seem to remember reading somewhere that the bodies disintegrate. Was I dreaming? Cheers

Mark I have one of those and it has something to do with the plasticisers in the material that they used. So when I tried to removed his boots the calves broke in half So you weren't dreaming they are a lot more prone splits and breaks compared to regular Joes
