Buying Loose/Bad Odor?

Put that **** back in the mail

Burn it

Toss it in some tupperware with a healthy amount of baking soda and let it sit for a few days.

13 for a dm jericho is a steal good luck getting rid of the odor

Lmfaooo smells worse than booty. I really don't know how to describe it. Smells kind of like cigarette odor fused with a piece of metal that's been mixed with copper mixed with a burnt fuse. It's probably not even the right description, but it's really strong though. Gives you a headache every time the smell goes through your nostrils and it really makes you wanna vomit. The main odor that you can definitely sniff is cigarette though. The odor is also currently on my hands and I can't get rid of the smell from my hands.

Soap does nothing, I can promise you that, and, on top of that, if you're trying to wash it without gloves, you'll have a heck of a time getting the stink off you as well short of lavasoaping the skin away.

Mythbusters did an ep ages ago on methods to remove cig smoke. IIRC, nothing worked. Every method they tried, you can't get the smell out.

As a former smoker myself, I'm telling you now, short of extended, repeated washing with powerful ish, and copious amounts of time, no conventional methods will get that smell out. I've had items I bought from obvious chain smokers, while being a smoker myself, and even 8 years later, they're still in a bin because I can't stand the smell. And that was a metal item. Plastic is far more porous and will retain smells longer.

I don't know how to help you. Although, if you smell something besides just cig smoke, it could be mold, at which point, throw the figure in the dumpster immediately. Even a little mold in your house can spread and then your entire damn house will smell like that.

They call that The Beast, you need a priest to get rid of it!

Return immediately or throw it out and take the loss as a learning experience. Do NOT introduce the figure into your collection. Once The Beast infects the other figures your collection will be done. Cleaning, spraying, scrubbing only masks The Beast, you think you’ve defeated it so you put the fig in a bin with others. A week later The Beast has rejuvenated stronger than ever and you’ve ruined a full bin.

$13? Throw it out, give informative feedback to other buyers, move on.

Butt figures me thinks lol. 🤭.

Somebody enjoyed their figures a little too much lol. 🤮.

I used to work in the restaurant industry many years ago and used to use lemon juice to get strong odors off of my hands. It really helped when handling garlic or breaking down fish. Not sure how the acidity would react to plastic, but should help get rid of the smell on your hands. Definitely sounds like you got yourself a butt figure.
