Post subject:  Question for those with 7 pack Alley-Vipers

So, I broke down, ordered the 7 packs and I'm wondering if I got a defective Alley-Viper.

The knife is removable from his chest sheath, but it seems glued in place to his wrist sheath. Not just stuck. I yanked on it hard as could and won't come out. I checked some online reviews before posting this and it seems others have no problem removing that knife. Anyone else have this problem, or am I the only unlucky one? And how can I fix this without breaking anything?

Also, I can't for the life of me, figure out how to attach his grappling hook gun to his backpack. The space for it is clearly molded, but there is no peg or hole or anything. Just how does it fit on there?

Any feedback on either issue is much appreciated. :alleyviper:

Have you tried heating it up? Maybe dip it in boiled water for a few seconds to soften up the plastic?

Mine were kinda stuck, but not so badly I couldn't get them out. The grapple gun doesn't actually attach to the backpack. Hasbro dropped the ball on that one.

That's just plain "LASER BLAST"! All they needed was a small peg and hole like they have done on other guns/backpacks. Its a very cool figure, but I guess it follows Hasbro's line of coming so close, yet screwing up a minor detail that would have made it perfect. :verymad:

The wrist knife on mine was stuck. I had to boil mine too.

The back pack is a head scratcher. Make that plastic a little thicker next to the gun and there isn't a problem. Add a post or two and there isn't a problem.
