Bent minis out of the box fix? - Vender - 01-01-2017 12:12 AM

I searched for a bit, couldn't find anything on it, so apologies if its already been covered.

Just opened up my Timber Peak, and a few of the heroes are a bit warped. Guns and weapons aren't unusual, but Sally has got a real Smooth Criminal Lean to her.

Any one have a trick to getting these back into upright shape?

Easy use the Hot/Cold treatment. Boil water put it in a container deep enough to
cover Sally & pop her in. Leave her for about 2 minutes (she should straighten out
by her self) take her out & if she is still bent just straighten her by hand) then put her
in a container of ice cold water for 3 minutes to set the plastic.

She should be good to go ,you can also do your other heroes with warped bits.

Awesome, I was thinking along the same lines. I don't really have a test piece though, would hate to blobify Sally.

Thanks much!

Don't worry Sally will be fine , the water won't be hot enough
to harm her, she should just go back to her original shape .
