    A dab of silicone oil wouldn't hurt.

    I had a beast of a time with those. I was wondering what I was doing wrong but finally got them to fit.

    Cool, did you had to force it or was there a trick to fit them together easier without scraping off at the tab haha

    It was a combination of forcing and moving it around. Watching Emgo really helped.

    Those long plastic hip-to-thigh posts scare me, they have wayy too much give. Wish they had diecast in the center of the cylinder while the outer cylinder with teeth remains as plastic of course.

    First off, you will need to disassemble the joint to see what happened. Then take some detailed high res pictures of it and post them here on the boards for other, more experienced users to see. I wouldn't try to fix it myself until you get the second opinion cause you can make it worse/irreparable. I'm sure someone here will be happy to help.

    Tab the arm panels into the torso sides first, then tab the shoulders in, it's just a leverage thing, and....finally!

    Ah, I still hope that tab doesn't wear down over time.

    That's the one area I dislike on this figure, those hip ratchet teeth start to fray and bend outward like a funky goliath tigerfish.

    Hmmm that's too much force for the teeth to handle, lube should prevent that from happening.
