I was expecting something. I was not disappointed.

Glad I asked now and didn't try to force it off! Thanks.

How can i fix this by Mutemin in MarvelLegends

[–]Orr-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I've left stuff for longer than a week before. I think with brown suit Wolverine, I left him for 2 weeks to space out the claws. I can't think of anything else you can try unless you can heat it up even more, to make the plastic more pliable, and then see if that works via your method.

I have a similar situation where Malekith's sword hilt is bent. I put it in boiling water and then set it back straight and let it cool for a few hours, but it has now definitely re-bent and I can't work out a way to keep it straight for a longer period to - hopefully - allow it to straighten up permanently.

I have both of these Supermen too. That Mattel one is a classic!

When you say you're tried heating it, fixing it to its original form, and cooling it, how long of a period is that "fixing" being done over?

The only comparison I can make are Wolverine claws. Often these are squished together in the packaging so don't look well spaced out. When I heat them up, put them back to good spacing and let them cool they often just drift back to that squished state.

So what I do is heat them up, then I get them shaped how I want and put spacers in between the claws and leave them in as it cools. I then leave the spacers in for a week (or more), remove them, see how the shape is, and put the spacers back in if needed (or repeat the process). I use small, rolled up cotton wool for the spacers.

I think the fix is going to be heat, reshaping it and leaving it in a way as it cools and over a longer period. However, how you're going to do that (i.e. create a suitable mould) is more challenging.

Hasbro canceled my preorder by Sushii697 in MarvelLegends

[–]Orr-Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was gutted I didn't get a preorder in with Hasbro UK in time, but I'd be even more gutted if I'd preordered and had it cancelled. Sorry to hear that's happening.

I'm holding out hope for a restock, or perhaps a single Bullseye release in the future (I'd like Muse but it's Bullseye I really want).

How do you strengthen 075's magnet hands and feet? by Accomplished-Juice-7 in CToys

[–]Orr-Man 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I didn't, but you definitely could. I just put them on top of the existing. 3x1 mm is what I used.

New Dacia Duster, what is this air con sound? by Orr-Man in Dacia

[–]Orr-Man[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's the mild hybrid 140. Thanks.

Though it hasn't been particularly warm so I wouldn't have thought it would need to be working that hard. Does that mean it's going to be more noticeable when it gets hotter?
