No, this isn't a thread asking if Johnny Ace ever wrestled pantsless. I got the BoPPV Christian today that comes.with Lauranitis' legs and I have a Ricard Rodriguez almost complete minus legs. So messing around, I put Lauranitis' legs on Rodriguez and now they're stuck. So I have a very tall Rodriguez with red pants... Any tips on getting the legs off? I never had this problem with Michael Cole. His legs would practically fall off on their own. *EDIT*

It is very funny looking. I need to take a pic to post on here.

Yeah, post a pic, you tease!
Heat the figure up to separate it. Hair dryer, hot water, whatever method you prefer. It really helps when parts get stuck and lock. I have to run a bath to take my elite ring apart.

Sounds to me like you actually put the Cole legs on wrong, and that is why they fall out.
With the BAF legs, they click in place as the torso as a piece in it that once the legs are in, the only way to get them out is by splitting the torso.

Try twisting the waist around to get them off. They need to be aligned correctly in order to be put on so I'd assume it's the same deal to remove them.

This thread is on point. I'm cracking up. We got red pants on Ricardo and people bathing with their ESR.

Just pull them apart. They will separate with a little force

Getting ready for bed so I didn't have time to use my camera. So I just took a pic on my phone. Here he is with other figures for scale.

I thought once the legs lock in place with the torso, you can't take them apart anymore.

No, not for the ring posts, although they're a pain too. To get the two halves apart, I don't know if the parts that connect them are warped on mine or what but they just won't disconnect unless I put them in hot water.

My cole legs were stuck and I heated him with hair dryer then pulled it feels like it's. Going to break. Pull enough to get screwdriver in and work them off. Like I said it feels like its going to break, but it's ok. I had to do this with 2 cole figures and it worked with both.

OMG this thread is priceless.
If you are still struggling you could try soaking them in hot water (from a boiled kettle) which will soften the plastic.

Yeah bro you just got to be a man and pull the posts straight out. It's not hard at all. You will be ashamed and hitting the gym all the rest of the year for not being able to pull those posts out of the ring i bet. lol It's easy enough. They won't break unless you pull them to one side while they are locked in. Same goes for Johnny Ace.. Just grow a pair and pull the legs straight out. They are "Build-A-Figure" parts and are meant to snap in and out. They don't get "Stuck for good" inside there. Pull those legs straight out and then go hit the gym too StoneColdLiger.

I've never had any trouble taking Mattel's Baf's apart after I had put them together. And they snap back together firmly as well.

You'll be able to snap them off. Like everyone has said soak them in very hot water for a few minutes. Hell my BAF Teddys arm still pops out every time I move it sideways.
I legit LOLd at giant red pants wearing Ricardo though..

Ricardo Rodriguez and John Lauranitis are once again two seperate entities. Thanks for the tips guys. I used the hot water trick then popped them apart.
