    Hello Radicons! I'm hoping you can help me.

    My MMC Tyrantron has a super tight lower waist. As you may know, this figure kinda has two waist joints. I am talking about the lower one. The *UPPER ONE* moves fine, but when you clip on the chest plate, that one is immobilized. So I want to free up the movement of the lower waist. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem, and maybe solved it?

    I've tried on a previous attempt to take out the 3 screws that are on his robo-butt to take it apart from there, but the parts won't budge. The screws come out, but the parts don't separate. Should I keep at it, is this the part that will free up the waist? Or is it the torso that needs to come apart?

    Unsuccessful there, I took out the 3 visible screws on his back, and discovered that the raised areas that are his "shoulder blade protectors" can slide, fully revealing 2 more screw ports with covers. How do I get those out, without damaging the paint?

    Thank you very much in advance for any help! :)
