    I got TFA Ldr Megs and transformed him to Alt, which is how i intend to display him
    The rotor blades on mine are a bit loose.
    loose enough that there is maybe a 15% droop from the hub.
    anyone else have loose rotor blades?

    I am gonna try the nail polish fix as soon as i can get to a store saturday afternoon,

    I dont know if this needed a second topic...

    anyways, as I posted in the other one:
    are you folding the right one back? because there's a small bit that will stop the correct one from going down further than it should.

    I did not double post. i had to reboot my PC about the time i tried posting this thread, but i didn't get a chance to post it. so i was as surprised to see the other post below this one.

    I checked it and i folded them properly. will double check it when i can get to my magnifier, just to make sure.

    I noticed this on mine. While both blades will fold into position, there is a correct direction that each of them go. That probably doesn't make sense but I can't explain it better than Valkysas.

    Mine are perfect, and they always stay in place. Try dropping a bit of super glue/nail polish in the joints. That should help.

    Yes!
    When you turn the wrong blade on the sword, it's loosey-goosey. The right one should not be loose.
