So, I was doing a print yesterday that kept lifting off of my blue tape. So I got some elmers and mixed it with water and removed my tape and applied it to my glass.

Man did that work! no lifting at all.

Unfortunately I now have a 200x200mm piece of glass stuck to the bottom of my .05mm slice Yoda. Im trying not to destroy it's base too bad trying to get it off.

How about soaking the whole thing in water, that won't ruin my PLA print will it?

The PLA will be fine soaked in water.
I've found giving the model a whack on the edge of a table will release it, but with something like Yoda that might result in damage.

Next time use a thinner solution of glue and water! but when I have some parts that stick that well spray some water or glass cleaning fluid around the bottom of the part - capillary action kicks in and the part usually pops off in a few seconds.
