And lived to tell about it(i.e. the lead)

For Cesspool...I am going to be dyeing one of them...so what precautions should I take if these supposely contain lead.

This gives any Funskool Toxo-Vipers an interesting new perspective.
Toxic Toxo-Vipers. Who knew? :toxoviper: :toxoviper2: :toxozombie: :cesspool:

I don't recall hearing anywhere that Funskool Joes had lead paint in them.
You got any proof of that?

Considering our Joes were made in Hong Kong and China (now both the same country), I think one should worry about the lead content in American Toxo-Vipers and Cesspools.

Harsh. Mellow out bro.

As far as Funskool lead paint theory has been around for years and is complete BS. Funskool has always maintained that their figures contain no lead and I have no reason to disbelieve them. Just because their QC is a little spotty doesn't mean that they're dangerous.

I have handled, dyed, and customized Funskool figures many times with no problems. Hell I even put one in my mouth one time to prove the point. Dye away bud.
