How does Action Figure Authority grade loose figures?
I deal with G.I. Joe figures but have never had any graded although I have bought some that were. I'm asking because a friend of mine has two Zap version 1 figs (one of them has a broken thumb and the other a broken crotch) and he wants to take them both apart and reassemble to make a better figure. He wants to get it AFA graded and was wondering how that would affect it. I have to admit that I'm curious as well.
So my questions are:
Does it matter that you have used parts from different figures to make a better one? Even if they are the same vintage and variation?
What about accessories and o-ring?
Is that something that needs to be disclosed when submitting a figure for grading?...[

This Elrond figures does a decent job of keeping the arms poseable though
