I am stripping my Funhouse for repair and new decals. I’ve gotten stuck trying to remove the backbox hinge bolts. The allen head inner parts are really tight. So tight that I question which direction I should be trying to turn them. Looking at the bolt from the allen head (interior of cabinet), I’ve been assuming righty tighty, lefty loosey, but I really don’t want to wage a war in the wrong direction.

Any advice?

Yup - standard threads. I hit it with a heat gun, let it cool a bit and cranked hard on it. Made a LOUD pop when it finally broke free.
