Here is the link about crotch surgery. Warning, performing surgery on Cobras is done at one's own risk.

On a side note, I have a Black&Decker Wizard rotary tool and it solved my sanding issues very nicely Not as good as my one and only '86, but much less worn out.... The neck motion is good, the legs can run in place, but I wouldn't advise any ninja kicks.

Hope that helps!

That was much easier than the crotch reduction surgery. I used the rotary tool with a point that resembled the tip of a .22 caliber round. The part to sand/file/roto-tool is the back, not the head. I didn't see any links on that. It's my son's birthday, so I'm home form work. Let me see if I can post a "how-to" picture in a little bit. One down, 5 to go... But my first one has full range of neck articulation now. I might go buy another Viper pit pack before my TRU is sold out...again.

I don't think I could start a business fixing these, what with shipping and insuring back and forth, but I will try and post a "how-to" picture....
