Since I'm new to the NECA Predator line, how does one get the stiff joints to loosen up so that the figures don't break? Would a product like WD40 or Break-Free work?
See that I don't know. I heard about a "freezer trick" but have never seen it done or tried it myself. Series 3 was the worst for me with crazy stiff joint. With little force, the elbow snapped on the Elder. Luckily for me it was a clean break and was very easy to fix. NECA has seemed to have cleared up that issue with series 4 though, all nice and smooth with just the right amount of stiffness. I think the paint on the joint(s) is to blame for the seizure.
