PostSubject: Removing an Arm?   Removing an Arm? Icon_minitimeSat Jul 06, 2019 7:56 am

Okay, I have a MAM who has his right arm modified into some sort of moulded-on weapon type device.
Makes him just about useless for any other purpose. Any hints/tips for removing an arm from a MAM at the shoulder?
The rest of him is good and I'm hoping I can perform a transplant.

I would assume the only way is to open the torso up?

Yes, I kinda guessed that, but I just wanted to know if anyone had gone there before I attempt to perform open thoracic surgery without a textbook! Shocked Shocked Shocked

There is a guy over on UAMHQ that does a lot of head and hand transplants and modifications. ( I'm not sure if He's a member here ).
I'm afraid I can't recall His name ,But Guys here like Gunner and Rogue probably know who I mean.
Some of His threads may offer some clues - IF the photos are intact.

Lui66 on Uamhq is the king at modifying AM bodies.
Not sure an arm transplant on a MAM is feasable.
Better buy another one...

My advice...

Grasp the mam firmly by the broken arm.
Walk over to the bin
Drop the mam in the bin
Buy a vam  Wink  lol!

Didier to the rescue - It is indeed LUI66 that I was thinking of.
However, It appears that I did correctly identify RogueTrooper as someone who may have some helpful advice LOL!!!

Luckily MAMs do not seem to suffer from that alarming inherent genetic fault that causes them to spontaneously start shedding limbs! affraid

I am hoping my one lone recently arrived VAM hasn't infected the resident troop in any way, but I do know he's very envious of the other MAMs finely shaped legs.
VAM came out in shorts (Bombay Bloomers?) the other day and all the others fell about laughing at his spindly little gams! Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing And those knees? Laughing Laughing Laughing
After that embarrassing scene, I think he'll be sticking to long trousers in future.......
