    judging by the pack, it looks like tab a goes into slot a? if so have you tried a few layers of nail polish or super glue? Might help, but im used to having the super glue fix work only on ball joints.

    1. on the back of the piece that slides the head up, there is a small hole.
    2. the black hole you have circled in your pic has a peg on the back of it. It fits into the hole in the sliding head piece.
    2. Line those up and then insert the backpack peg you have circled in your pic on the right.
    4. it will snap in place and his armpits will rest on the small indents on his sides.

    hope that helps!

    sweet custom BTW

    Great custom! Hope something similar gets released, I don't really know if I should buy WFC Soundwave. He's cool, but he has clown feet :(

    Better getting a bad ass soundwave with clownfeet than looking like a harlequin like wfc bumblebee, and please don't laugh: I get frightnened when I see clowns or harlequins

    Maybe it is so, cause the first clown I saw was pennywise in ES by Steven king when I was 4 years old (stealthy, my parents never knowed it)
