I wondered why the figures were called "Infaceables", and I found the story on YouTube.

YouTube video here

The short version is that their faces change when you pull down at the hips, and they are supposed to go back to flat when you push up again. On this particlar figure that feature worked only once. The second time I tried it his eye popped out. The plastic has gotten very brittle with age.

This explains a couple of things, mostly why so many Infaceable figures have no face at all any more. The guy who identified it for me sad it was remarkable that the face was still there and I really didn't think much about why he said that. I wish I had - Brainor looked a lot better when he had both of his eyes.
