So I have the 18in super poseable Spidey. The problem is that some joints like the knees and elbows are really tight. I feel like I'm going to break them and some are really loose they wont even stay in place like the neck and left knee.

Has anyone taken their figure apart. Should I start by washing my spidey in warm water and soap then using a blow dryer to take the joints apart, add some nail polish, etc etc.

Just wondering if someone has pics and done it before.

I don't have pics but I would like to clarify the issue. You say the joints are tight, but propose using nail polish which is a trick for tightening joints. This might not be what you really need. I'd say give him a nice hot water bath and work those joints looser. When it dries and cools they should be less rigid.
