I'm gonna have to disagree with you on that one. I can pull my knees straight and get that harsh undercut and still get them out of the mold no problem, been doing it for about a year now. I don't know why BM's pulling them like that...probably easier to get them off the mold would be my guess (if they are in fact plastic, I know that he's just started producing his new stuff in plastic...I've seen his FG one's and they're flared straight back if memory serves me correctly).
Here's mine -

But yes Tin, you should be able to hit them with a heat gun and get them to bend back some more...although I don't understand why that wasn't done BEFORE they were painted. I've never done that with a painted piece before. I would be extremely careful doing it that way if I was you. You could possibly ruin the paint, just a heads up. Good luck with it either way mate!
