Can anyone sort this out for me? I recently picked up a 25th Scarlett off eBay and when I opened the package I found her right leg was totally glued in place. I contacted the seller and the guy was confused about it, not really understanding what I was talking about. When I applied some proper force, her leg came free and the j-hook in there is totally fine, but there is definitely some weird glue stuff on her leg and what looks like a hip defect in the molding.

Anyone know if this is common for 25th figures? I should ask the guy if this was his figure to begin with, maybe he can clue me in.

I've never seen that on a 25th figure, but I did notice something similar on a Walmart ME Retro figure. I dunno what it is, but it could be some sort of solvent or something from manufacturing that wasn't rinsed off properly.

Interesting..yeah I dunno, this is a first for me. The seller claimed he got it second hand and put it in a display case without really posing it or anything. I know sometimes joints can get stiff and stick in place, but this felt fused together. In any event it seems fine, but there's definitely some kind of manufacturing issue with a part or a joint.
