The ff.com platforms ALL weigh-in at .08 grams!!! That will get every figure to 2.0 or less, but without a replacement platform. So, either "GUT 'EM LIKE A PIG!!!" or "OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!" or "MAKE THEM WALK THE (SANDPAPER) PLANK!!!"

Option 1: The EASIEST and least insulting way to drop weight is to swap out platforms or shave the platform down on course sandpaper until you reach the desired unpimped figure weight of 1.7 grams. If the figure weight minus .08g platform weight is still greater than 1.7g, skip to Option 2 or 3. If the figure minus .08g plus the new replacement platform is equal to 1.7g, then you're good. Proceed with pimpin' that figure out!!

Option 2: Chop their heads off and using a 5/16" drill bit, drill straight down and pull out a 1/4" deep plug; then angle the drill left using the same hole at the neck; and again at a right angle. You should set your bit length from neck to jock so that you don't make the mini-men into mini-WOmen!!! Madame Butterfly anyone??? Put all the pieces on a scale and see where you are. If there's only .01-.03 grams to "shave" then use the sandpaper as described in Option 1.

Option 3: Gut E'm!!! Chop 'em at their waist and hollow out both halves until they add up to 1.7 grams.

Reattach ALL options using a super or krazy glue - which may add back a lil weight, that's why I chop down to 1.7g.
