    So I bought Earthrise Wheeljack this morning, and I love him.

    But while messing around with him, I noticed something odd. The hip joint for his right leg, circled in green on the left of the photo, refuses to move!

    So far I've tried to move it using a grip mat for opening jars and a heavy duty work glove with grip pads on it. This evening I might try pliers.

    Sadly I have no idea what it is, or how to fix it. Maybe it's mould flash of some sort...?

    Is anyone else's figure messed up like this?

    Been messing with him since I picked him up. He moves fine in terms of my figure. Maybe you just got unlucky with the QC. Sorry to hear that.
