Heat a pan of water to boiling and then put the fig in up to his knees for about 10 seconds. When you take the fig out the plastic will be very soft and flexible. Bend the knees to 90 which pinches the material in the joint and remolds it because of the heat. Next give the Officer about 4 hours of timeout in the freezer to think about what he has done. Finally take him out and let the plastic come to room temperature which should take an hour.
After this is done the fig will have full motion of his knees and you didn?t need to modify the fig.
After looking at the fig I think the real issue is there is not the small gap behind the knee where the thigh piece meets the foot and knee. Trooper, SE, and SS have the gap and that gives the parts room to move.
Thanks, nice fix. I also noticed the issue being the lack of a small gap behind the knee, because the amount of material on the lower leg is about the same as every other figure.
