I am not really sure if this is the right place to post this so im sorry in advance :)

So i have some old finecast Men at arms (dol amroth) still in blister but their pikes are a little bend, i havent open the pack yet to keep the chance on replacing it in worst case.
But i have read some times to straighten with hot/cold water or a hairdryer. is this any true? anyone tested it?
Or if not any other ways to fix them?

Thanks a lot in advance

immerse in boiling water - pull the pike straight and immerse in cold water while still holding straight.
