That works even better if you put the model in a Ziploc baggie
along with a teaspoon or two of water.
If that doesn't work apply some mineral spirits (white spirits in
the UK) to the glue joints - that will often loosen them after a few
minutes.
If that trick fails apply some bottled Testors liquid cement
instead (other liquid cements usually evaporate too quickly).
If all the above fail you'll have to resort to the careful
application of brute force... ;-p
