I've noticed that many Reaper Bones minis are actually multi-part, but can't figure out if they are glued together or not. If glued, what kind was used? Thinking of using a solvent if possible, as I'm afraid that using force in some cases would be a bad idea.
In addition to converting and reposing, some of them need to be taken apart to reach the hard-to-paint places.
Also wondering if the original metal minis were also multi-part.
Thoughts? Thanks!

I have actually pulled them apart very carefully with no problem if they are glued together, however I can understand your concern of breaking them.

Have you tried placing them in hot water, re positioning them and then in cold water and they stiffen right back up in the new pose – works great.

I am not sure what glue they are using but if you use an instant glue on the bones it works VERY well.
