That heavier caked on dust doesn't easily blow out or even washes out from tiny crevices from joints or smaller moulded details. You need to poke at it with something tiny and small enough to get into those corners, but not sharp enough to scratch the figure. It's really hard to find an appropriate tool get that done right and often forces a person to accept an incomplete cleaning job.

Anything you can't get with 20 minutes, rubbing alcohol a q-tip and a toothpick, I've never encountered. Even that was for value village toys, not from boardies, regardless... if it's that gross and unacceptable, OP could, you know, not accept it, not buy the figure, go home with his money, and avoid this problem altogether
Don't buy toys from filthy hoarders, you wouldn't buy anything else from their home, would you?
