If this is an imported mesh use the grouping tool. Select the mesh, then open the GT. Create a "NewGroup" called "Junk" and "Add All", then click "Spawn Props". Every part of the figure that is a separate group will be come a prop in the scene. Delete "Junk" and the cape. If this is just a poser figure wearing a cape, select the cape and hit "delete" on your keyboard. -JH.
