Disclaimer: Do this at your own risk. I will not be held responsible for any damage! Having said that, it's completely safe and easy to do if you use common sense!It's quite annoying when you receive a miniature, only to find that it's been bent, either in transit, or something to do with the manufacture. However, don't be too hasty in giving negative feedback to the person you bought it from. It's invariably not their fault. I have bought quite a few miniatures through eBay only to find this problem with a few (mainly the droid minis).The good news is that it's very easy to fix!First get yourself a bowl of cold water. Normal tap water will do. Next, you'll need a hair dryer. Use the hair dryer on the minaiture until it goes soft (takes a few seconds). Now, bend the miniature until it's straight and dip it in the water. It will harden within a second or two. And that's it! The whole process only takes about half a minute.Bare in mind that you only need to hold the mini under the hairdryer for a few seconds until it goes soft enough to bend easily.Dead simple. I've done this on my miniatures and have managed to fix all of them. The only problem is that you don't know when to stop! It's far too addictive. But then I'm sad like that...I hope this guide helps anyone with similar problems!
