I agree that that particular pose is prone to glue-overload, and for some reason, the G3 glue around the neck seems to sometimes even melt the plastic together. I can probably count on one hand the number of G3s I've been able to pull apart on the first try. You might find it easier, if you don't want to try to slice the entire thing off, to kind of perforate the seam with and exacto knive. Just a little dotted line *should* be able to do, and it's easier to keep a broken line straight in this sense than an all-out cutting of it.
