To finally follow up on the 'heat and bend' question with regards to Skaven tails. It doesn't seem to work.
I tried dunking the mini in boiled water for about half a minute, took it out and the tail was still pretty stiff. Stuck it back in for about a minute and I was able to get the thinnest part of the tail to curve a bit forward. More soaking, more twisting, and *snap*. That pretty much set my mind to shortening the tails, which I think is what mikeyc22 did. I remember seeing someone's post on shortening the Skaven tails, and it appears to be the best option. The other worrisome bit will be outstretched fingers.
