Cyclops arrived. Weirdly, I didn't have to pay any import tax.

The leg straps are separate and are only held up by friction. If you don't push them up tight enough, they fall back down. Looks like the shorts on mine got caught on the leg and crushed in on one side. Hopefully nothing I can't fix with a hairdryer.

Anyone else have an impossible time trying to get the hands out of their arm sockets? I cannot for the life of me, remove the hands from the “jacket” arms. I feel like I’m going to break something if I pull any harder.

Damn.. cycke so good!!
Cyclops and Gambit arrived this week! 
This was the reason for me getting into 1/6 scale. Cyclops was always my favorite X-Men.
I was always disappointed with Hasbro and felt unsatisfied. It has nothing to do with the scale, but the quality and accessories.
ALl I wanted was some blasting heads, angry heads, unmasked heads and they kept failing. Finally they made them a year or so ago, but to get a good cyclops, you had to buy all, then there might be skin tone differences and costume differences. I quit and banked on Mondo.
This was so worth the money. I have ideas for using the extra heads already down pat and to make multiple Scott Summers's.
What a wonderful product and company.
I love the cell shading. More paint the better. It makes it so eye catching.

Were you trying to swap hands? I had the same issue. I couldn’t, for the life of me, get the peg out of the arm. It’s way too tight. Not sure what to do but it does seem it’ll break from what you’re saying.
I did hot water treatment came right off

Ok. Good to know. Run it under hot water for a bit?
I let it sit in a small cup of hot water for a minute or two.
Other have said to also let it sit in room temperature for a while and let it warm up. Most likely was in really cold temperatures and got really hard.
One guy used a blow dryer and still broke and the reasoning other said was due to it going to quickly from cold to hot and plastic becoming brittle. Definitely read that warm water is the way to go.
That said it may make sense to give your figure some time to just naturally warm up to room temp as well.

Guys, what am I doing wrong?
Lol, Hydro-Man from Mondo's Animated Spider-Man line.Guys, what am I doing wrong?
I dipped my own in hot water, not boiling.
Did both shoulders, the hands and everything looks okay. I removed the shoulders and put on the coat, and nothing broke.....
I am happy.
