I've got these fully based units of Perry Plastics and I want to change their frontage from 4 to a base to 6 a base.
The problem is that I'm not sure how to safely sepparate (plastic) miniatures from their bases.
Anybody got a good way or idea on removing miniatures from their bases?
I think the success will depend on what glue was used and what material the bases are made from.
It you glued plastic tot plastic (or anohher material) with superglue, I would suggest to try to remove the figures from their bases by praying with a sharp blade at the seams and try to slip a blade between base and figure (be very careful so you don't get cut.
For white glue (PVA/PVAC) or hot glue I would also try it this way.
It you used the true plastic glue, you might find it hard to seperate. Normally the plastic dissolves a bit on the joining surfaces and they 'melt' into each other.
