Have some hot water ready. Both of mine were statues right out of the box. a good soak and they were good to go.

How do you do that exactly? Does water get trapped inside?

This is why I advise using a hairdryer over the hot water method. It lets you have more control over where exactly it is you're applying heat which is particularly helpful when only one joint in the middle of the figure is stuck as opposed to having to let the entire figure take a hot bath. It also avoids the chance of water getting caught in figures with hollow parts, which while I don't think there's any real danger to that it's still something I'd like to not happen.

That's what I do too.

That sounds like a good idea too.

I'm such chicken shit. I'm scared to do it XD
