Oh dear!!  I was planning to use one to make an alicorn.  Am I going to be able to take the head/tail off without ruining her?

I took off the cloth bit of the wings and boiled her til she gleamed. (she was very dirty) I added a lil soap to the water so that may have helped. When she was cool enough to touch I bent the spine toward the neck hole, grabbed the bit with my pliers, wiggled it a bit, and it popped right off.
I like this one best!  I like smashing things, but i dont like glueing heads on.

From what I remember, you're not going to be able to change her tail without some destruction involved.  That doesn't mean you have to remove everything, the custom I did still has her wings (see my avatar), but she won't be as sturdy.  Customs just aren't, though, so that shouldn't be much of an issue.
