    Is it the ball joint or the pinned neck joint (commonly found loose) the ball joint is attached to? Either way Future will solve both problems.

    Hey y'all, I've seen Aurawind's mod that fixes the "A-stance" problem with this kit. Does anyone know if it will work to cut away some plastic to also improve the forward-backward hip articulation? Has anyone tried cutting away some plastic to make that possible, and does it work?

    And another set with new hands and feet?

    Future tends to work well on some things but not good enough on my menasor head so I used a coat of clear nail polish which is thicker and now mine is near perfect. No pun intended.

    Another good fix for loose ball joints is lazerbond. you have to clean the ball with alcohol then thinly coat it with the fluid, then just zap it with the UV light. Make sure to shine the light till it is good and solid as it doesn't seem to harden by itself over time. Also,don't use it outside in direct sunlight. It starts to harden quickly in the sun and can plug up the little dispenser pen. i used it on all my combiner wars hip joints (limb bots) and it stuck perfectly, but only to figs i cleaned their balls (quit chuckling) first.

    I wss going to say the quickest way to get hands and feet is part of a full combiner. Then I noticed the post right above yours lol. Keep your eye on ebay and the junkion exchange, and be patient.
