I have a Mumik I bought On ebay and its assembled poorly. Does anyone know how to strip the glue and not damage the plastic?

First, soak in hot soapy water to help loosen the bond between the glue and the plastic. Then add some simple green into the joint to help loosen that bond further. Try to slowly pry the parts apart at the gaps. CA is pretty brittle and should break apart before you deform the plastic. After that you should be able to pick off whatever remains.
