How to fix a bent Mickey Ear?

I am very interested in a Mickey hat with plastic ears that I found on Ebay! The only problem is one of the plastic ears is dented/bent on the top. Is there any way to fix this? A hair dryer and reshaping it to the way it should be? I just really don't wanna miss getting them for my trip in December because of the dent.

The plastic of the ear depending on how bad it’s bent might or might not crack. I ‘d maybe try placing a towel over the ear To offer some protection and then gently run a mildly warm iron over the towel. Trying to let the heat mold it back to shape. The problem is that the plastic is fairly thin so you’d have to be careful about bringing too much heat.

That's true. I suppose all I can do is test it out and see.
