    Over on another thread, Boggs mentioned the lack of articulation in Rampages arms. I had to grab mine and check. Whoa! That sucks!

    Five (5) minutes later, I bring you one of the easiest mods to add elbows to this guy.


    Basic tools needed:

    1. screwdriver;
    2. X-Acto knift;
    3. disposable lighter

    It's possible. Another solution would be using a tack nail as a flat headed pin. Drop some glue into the orange part (just a touch where the nail reaches into the hole), then put the arm back together and put the pin/nail in.

    Nope. It keeps the arm [at] the exact same length.
