With them adding so much paint and clear coat to their figures, they have a tendency to fuse joints. The moment I notice a joint won't easily budge, I turn on the hair dryer and lightly heat up any joints I need to. It will loosen up paint locked joints, and soften the plastic enough to move with ease. I've been fortunate enough to not break a joint since 7" Ledger Joker & Reeves Superman.
I have a hair dryer I just didn't think I'd need it for Spiked Tail since none of my previous city hunter based preds had any issues. Last figure I had to use it on was a SDCC Locust I picked up and before that was indeed Chris Reeve Superman just because I'd seen other people's breaks online and I was taking no chances.
