    Posting some pictures for my previous post. Sorry if the formatting is wrong dont really post on many forums. It appears to be a ball joint, and no how matter how much force I've used they dont seem to want to connect. Anyone have any info or tips on how to re connect these pieces?

    Have you tried heating the socket with warm water or a hair dyer yet? Assuming the socket is plastic and not metal that should do the trick. If the socket is metal i got nothin.

    Did you make sure that there’s is enough room for the gray plastic pieces next to the metal ball to slide in outside of the top socket ? Check to see if you can rotate the top socket. I see the notch on the back of the socket, but Eva arches forward so maybe the notch is suppose to be a the front ?

    After playing with it a bit, it seems like I get the joints to connect its just they dont want to stay together. Is there any DIY way to keep the joints socketed?

    Try heating the socket up with a hair dryer then very firmly seat that metal ball into it. It might not be fully inserting with the pressure you're using.

    While this looks promising, I'm not a fan of the excessive amount of detail. I have been dying for a good 1/100 sazabi.
