Hahaha. Nah man. You just boil a jug of water, then pour some into a container, then ONLY DIP the parts you want softened in there for like, a minute. Not the whole toy!!! (:
Let us know how u go!!
Take it back to the store you got it (assuming you got it domestically) and get a replacement.
So this paint-fused problem... basically it means that getting the nose cone to extend is hard-to-impossible?
I opened my two-pack up just to check (so I could buy another from Big W if I need to to replace it) and it extends fully, so that means mine is fine?
My Cyclonus has the same problem. It's a bit annoying.
My first was bad. I got a replacement. Replacement was fine.
