>>11264034>and blast them with itI agree with you about heat, but I prefer a blow dryer, not everyone would be able to do something else with a heat gun, or wants to mod/customize stuff. If you do, then yes, a heat gun is a great investment. But you can find blow dryers for like $5 at any thrift store. And still have other uses you can find for them at home.
>>11262749>I live in CaliforniaI live in California, and while it's often second hand, pre-owned loose figures I'm doing it to, I've also gotten brand new, factory sealed McFarlane, DC Directs, and even one Hasbro ML I had to apply heat to on, generally the shoulder or one knee. Probably had an elbow once or twice.
>>11262708>I tried using heat, didn't work.You might not have been patient enough. Only time it didn't work for me was a second-hand, pre-owned figure and I assume the seller superglued it and that bitch didn't want to own up to it.
Also, make sure you cover your figure with a loose, thin (tee shirt probably) fabric - towel to start but you will likely need to go thinner. You don't want to diminish the paint with too much heat. That's another reason I don't agree with the 'blast it with a heat gun' anon.
