Step 1: Drill a guide hole

Step 2: Drill the full-sized hole with a 7/64" drill bit

Step 3: Put the peg into the hole

I've been collecting all of the S.H. Figuarts Sailor Moon figures and overall, I like them very much. However, they come with a claw-style stand that can make them difficult to stand up straight. It's also more visually obtrusive than having the stand's arm in back (as Figmas do). So, I've come up with a simple mod that lets you pose them Figma-style.Here is Sailor Mercury, being leany:The claw can be removed from the arm, leaving a convenient round peg. Now all that you need is a hole where you can put that peg.The exact location is not important, but the indentations in her back make a convenient target:I used a 1/16 inch drill bit to drill a small guide hole in her back. This hole is not big enough for the peg, but it makes it easier to stay on target when drilling the full-sized hole. It is not necessary to use a power tool to do the drilling -- the plastic is very soft and it only takes a couple minutes to do it by hand. Be careful not to slip when starting the hole.Drilling the guide hole:The finished guide hole:A 7/64" drill bit seems to be the perfect size for the arm that comes with these figures. Again, drilling by hand is fine.Note that when I say, "drilling by hand," I don't mean holding the drill bit directly in your hand like I did in the picture. I just did that because I couldn't find the drill bit that fits into my screwdriver. :pAnyway, the completed hole looks like this:As you can see, it can look a bit rough around the edges. It is easy to clean up with a little high grit (300+) sandpaper, but this is optional.Friction holds it in place, like so:Here she is posed after doing the mod. MUCH easier!I hope you've found this helpful. Happy collecting!
