    I need to Know how to remove the pin in Animated Shockwave's elbow. Long story short, His elbow is messed up and I need to fix it.


    Not too sure if this goes here or in the customs forms. Mods feel free to move this.

    I might as well elaborate. There is a piece of plastic(factory error) blocking the hole the ed of the pin should enter. Any ideas on how to remove the plastic from that small of a hole.

    Woah, didn't though someone had the same problem as mine. I tried using a pincer to crush his elbow together (so the pin enter) and no good, its look a little better but his left arm is still loose and can't keep his cannon up for long.

    I also didn't force too much feared to break a 50$ toy.

    You could take a sewing needle amd heat it up with a lighter and melt the plastic in the hole.

    Mine as well. Not the biggest problem, but still something I've considered trying to fix.
