I've got some really, really bad stuck joints on all of my copies. The ankle discs are the absolute worst and are killing all hype I had for the line. They will not move, and I feel like they're going to snap off with the amount of force I would have to put into them. Some even have some noticeable stressing on the peg that plugs into the foot.
I posted in the last thread about it and an anon gave me some pointers on how to fix them. None of the suggestions worked for me, unfortunately. The only way I can get them to move is to do the heating up trick, but it only makes them marginally easier while they're warm and go right back to stuck when they cool. I tried hot water to soften them up too. Helped a little bit with the help of some manual stretching around the disc with a spudger tool, but now my MMPR White has a foot that feels rough to the touch and the details are fading away, almost looks like it was dipped in some acetone or something for half a second after the hot water treatment.
I'm really just wondering now if anyone else had the problem or if I just got supremely unlucky on all 4 figures with impossible to move ankles and if I should just try to exchange them?
