Bonds' 700 home run figure owners, I need your help

This is really random, but I bought the commemorative 700 home runs Barry Bonds figure yesterday. I opened it up to get it ready for display in my room, but I can't figure out how to get the bat into the hands. The hands are closed, so I can't open through the fingers. The knob of the bat doesn't fit through the hole, so I can't just slide it in. I feel like I'm going to break it if I do anything more to it. Can anyone who also has the figure shed some light on this puzzle?

For the time being, Barry will be holding a mini screwdriver.

Giving the term “He hit it right on the screws” new life and meaning.

She said this.

I dont have one but just out of curiousity does the knob of the bat unscrew and then reattach after you place it in his hands?

That was my initial thought, but minutes of twisting it yields no results

Yeah, that’s what she said.

How much? and where?

That is a cool piece of memorabilia.

I have one of the 7,373 bonds 2001 73-homerun bobbleheads which for some reason i thought you were talking about.

20 bucks at a sports collectibles shop in the Great Mall in Milpitas. That’s probably a bit far for you.

Never mind

I was able to pop the knob off with a bit of force and get the bat set. Yippee!

She didn’t mention getting the bat set , though…
