    The stupid balljoints in its feet are loose as hell and if I do managed to make it stand without toppling forward I can't do anything with its pose. There's no way for me to lock the feet into place with the joints like that. Oh and my MP-05 always lean to its right due to the massive cannon. Anyone else having these kind of problems?

    Are you raising the top of the foot panel to help support it?

    If all else fails, do what I do to tighten ball joints:

    Pop off the foot.

    Fill the cavity with hotglue from a hotglue gun.

    Quickly pop the foot back on.

    Give it a wiggle, wiggle and it should be nice and tight.

    Put some kind of glue in them, then move them around. Try not to use superglue though - if you stop moving, the joint will be locked up forever.
