Is there any way to reverse this?

I have a Shipwreck v10 that has sun bleaching on the flesh colored parts and I have been looking online for any way to reverse this or if it is even possible.

If not, anyone know where I can get one loose or carded?

I'm going to assume that means no one has an answer to any of my questions.

Go buy a new figure. I thought someone had a solution for yellowing, but for sun bleaching I think your "LASER BLAST". Enjoy your new figure.

...18 views? You're calling "hopeless" after 18 views?

you can try this: http://wiki.joecustoms.com/wiki/Sun_Yellowed_Parts

I don't know if that's exactly what you mean, but worst case scenario, your already crappy figure becomes slightly crappier.

A chemical reaction has occured within the plastic - reversing it back to the original hue is a most likely impossible and if there is a way it is sure to be so timely and cost prohibitive that replacement would still be the more practical option to go with.

Alright cool, so I just need to find a place online with one in stock.


Edit: And when I find a new one I will try the peroxide method on the old one.
