How much did you get yours for, and where from? My Arkham City Catwoman had a similar problem, but it was possible to just squish it in a bit more. No other problems with her so far, and the other figures I've got (Harley and Ivy) seem fine. Lara Croft's legs haven't flown off yet either, despite her falling off the shelf.
hey buddy....this is exactly what i have going on with mine....its one of my first enix figs...but was so annoyed abt the arm being slightly out of the socket as you described..and stiff....can you just let me know how is it that you took out the arm?...i may go ahead and do this as i don't want to leave mine like that as i fear it will eventually break if i dont do something....let me know buddy...and thanks in advance...
@Mr Grimm, I got mine from Orbital in Central London for £60, on the shelf price is £70 but I got mates rates. I have an Arkham Catwoman too, but there was nothing wrong with her, just Wonder Woman, which was a bit annoying seeing as WW still cost me over twice what I paid for CW. @ Arkitect76, I had the arm straight out and gently pulled while rotating. It'll just pop out and once out it'll look like this; My post is a tiny bit shorter as I filed it down a little bit. Remember for the shoulder socket I used a 3.5mm or 4mm drill bit and spun it with my fingers to try and keep maximum control. It bothered me a lot when her arm protruded, but now her arm is flush with the socket so no complaints. I also only used a tiny amount of baby oil, which has seeped through the joint and coupled with some repeat movement her right shoulder is now the same as her left.
hey buddy...thanks for the tips....ill get going with this beacuse it does bother me to see that on this otherwise impressive figure....
Got WW in and checked out her shoulder. I noticed that the peg on the left is not visible, but on the right, about a mm is exposed. Not much to annoy me though. Only thing that annoys me here is her whip. They could have given her a whip and a piece to replace the wrapped up one. Plus her whip wasn't even painted completely. It looks like they dipped it in paint halfway.
Agreed the lack of whip (or preferably, a sword) is a big shortcoming on WW. But it's the only one, I really like mine.
Yeah, I have an extra Catwoman whip that could be painted, but I would prefer a sword since the whip is already there.
Ah, so the right shoulder thing is a widespread thing. Her lasso not being fully painted, I thought it was meant to be like that, to try and give it a multi layer glowey effect thing? My lasso left a nice blotch of paint on the back of her right thigh, which I had to scrape off with a scalpel. It also irks me it's not removable. So yeah, this figure is hardly perfect, but it is still very nice. If you get my meaning.
The shoulders on mine don't fit flush with the sockets, but it also doesn't look like they're quite sculpted as to do so. Neither seems to be sticking out any further than the other. Mine did wind up with some rather nasty paint transfer from her briefs to her... err, groin, however. Gonna have to clean that up. Looks nasty. Can't remove her right hand for the life of me. At least, not at the right end. Pops out of her forearm easily, but the peg's stuck fast in the hand. It's not fused in there, it twists just fine. Just can't seem to pull hard enough to pop that sucker out. Got Batman and GL with her, though, and they seem to have turned out well enough. This series seems to be overall a step up in quality compared to some of the earlier figures after the jump to 10" scale. Ratcheting joints seem to be a little more precise in movement, molding is a bit cleaner, figures overall feel a bit sturdier. Still not a fan of the ginormous 10" scale of PAK overall, but they're pretty nice figures for what they are.
Ooof, that lasso is pretty bad. Mine is only missing a bit at the top, so I thought it was deliberate, but looking at yours... well that's not acceptable for a premium product. This is my Wonder Womans left shoulder, pretty much as it was out of the box. This is her right shoulder after fixing it a bit. I think it looks the same as her left now, and after lubing moves as smoothly too. Hrm. Looking closely maybe it's protruding a tiny bit... but much better then it was. Considering the price tag you'd expect better quality. It's my second PAK and probably my last, especially at the larger scale... but having said that I wish all PAK figures were the same size. Hrm.
Larger scale? Are these bigger than the Arkham Asylum/City ones? I have Catwoman and both Harleys, but they're all boxed up right now, so I've not seen them side by side with GL and WW.
Aww, I didn't know they were different sizes. Guess I won't be displaying them on the same shelf. Oh well.
Official pics of Cyborg and Aquaman: Official Photos Of DC Variants Play Arts Kai Aquaman and Cyborg Figures - The Toyark - News These two look AMAZING. Best designs of the series so far imo.
Cyborg is pretty MEH to me, Aquaman looks great, I'll end up with him for sure. I still think Wonder Woman is my favorite though.
Wow, that Aquaman and Cyborg look great. I might pick up the Aquaman. Are they available for preorder yet?
