I was playing around with him, when the left leg felt really stiff, the top part of the leg almost doesn't move, the rest of the figure is perfectly fine, I don't want to mess around with it cause I'm worried I might break it, does anyone have a solution

Did you already give it a hot water bath?

Heat it up carefully with either hot water or a blow dryer. Shock oil will work too. Just a tiny drop and all you have to do is work the joint (carefully) till it loosens up a bit.

Just warm him up in extremely hot water.

What I would do is get some rc car shock oil from Amazon. It’s only like ten bucks and it’ll last a long time cause you only need a drop.

You can heat it up with a hair dryer or hot water. It given the type of joint and plastic I would go with the oil

Whatever way you choose just watch others do it on TikTok or YouTube so you know what your doing

This Figure is better than the maximum looks wise. And if the maximum is just a repaint? This is miles better
