need help with damaged WWI optimus prime figure

Posted in Custom Workstation

Well I got a hand me down War within optimus prime figure(from the titanium series) I like it, but the thing thats really bothering me lately is that the right arm can't turn 360 like the left, I think the previous owner superglued the joint there, so my question is:

Is it possible to remove the super glue?

goo gone. I have the goo gone xtreme and it's strong enough to make your nose hairs curl. There is a weaker version that smells like citrus I think so I'd try that. A little goes a long way as it will melt plastic if you're not careful.

yeah but since that joint is plastic you have to be really careful. Finger nail polish remover will work but a little goes a long way and the smell isn't very good for you. The stuff walmart sells with the superglues for removing adhesives might work and may be a bit kinder to the plastic parts.
