Commercially available is a solvent for cy-ac glues, it may also be
avilable 
from hospital supplies (people glue the damndest things together). And
if all 
else fails any acetone fingernail polishe remover will probably work - 
However try rapping the base sharply on the table while you hold the
figure - 
cyano-acrylate glues are terrific to hold things together when they are 
pulled apart, but it ain't much good against sheer pressure (pressure 
perpendicular to the layer of glue).
