My brother bought finecast uruk beserkers and we have a problem with them.
The swords are crooked and we tried to straighten them but they bend back, and if we bend them to far they will brake.
Does someone have a solution for this problem?

Please show us some pictures. I think that is not finecast, that is finecast. Try to use some heat. Maybe very hot water, or something. It will be difficult. Oh, GW, why cant you be better...

Maybe if you go to your local store or send them back, you can get a replacement?
I've never done that, but I've heard some good things about that part of the customer service.

Yes you don't even have to send in the bad ones, they will give you a new pack and let you keep the bad ones.

If they won't let you replace the ones that aren't in good shape, Bastion.HUNs suggestion should work. Heat will help you put the swords back into shape if this resin is anything like usual resin.

I tried to do it with hot water, and it worked.
But i did find out that if you don't hold it in it's shape it bends back.
So after they had there hot bath i hold them in shape and put them in cold water.
That way i didn't had to hold them for several minutes.

Thanks everyone for the good advise.
I'm sure my brother will be very happy.
