    Hot Toys Robin frozen elbows

    I finally got Batman 66 his boy wonder. But the elbow joint are all locked up. Anyone have this problem and a solution?

    I've had frozen joints on several HT figures. Shoulders mostly. Take care because from what I've heard the plastic is VERY brittle and will snap if you apply too much pressure.

      Mine haven't frozen, but I would put a hair dryer to the joint and see if that doesn't loosen it up.

        That's what I did and it worked! Also, these are the type of elbows that have click positions and i was fooled by that stiffness.

          Congrats on the acquisition, it's an awesome figure!
          Now, if only Hot Toys would release that 1:6 Batmobile they first showed a few years ago. I fear that dream is dead, alas !

            It's that Rochester Mr. Freeze-like chill that froze the Boy Wonder's elbows.

              For a moment, I thought this was a new variation they released...

                  I'm planning on waking up early to use the snowblower for the first time tomorrow.
