Hey guys and gals,

After being recomended him, I purchased the Oversized KO Beast Hunters Abominus toy (in takara colors) from sir toys. He needs some work though since Hungar's arms dont lock in well and a few joints feel really loose. Does anyone have recomendations on the fixes I could bring to it?

Other than the arms being a bit floppy, mine has no issues. I remember getting the legs to snap in the first time was a bit scary, but they did go in and I havent un-combined him yet. I dont know the resistance to wear and tear on KO's. I generally just display them and avoid frequnt transformations.

You didnt need to cut any of the excess plastic away?

Right HERE

Its 13$ shipping to the US, flat rate shippng (I think). I can also recomend the G1 combiners. They are perfectly in scale with the offocial products and can intereact with them. Its a great way to get the hands and feet some of my G1 combiners were mising.

Well looking at the pics the figs are mostly ball joints and mushroom joints? You can do the floor polish, clear nail polish fix for any of those.

Are the arms supposed to peg to lock in? If so and the pegs don't fit you need file some of the plastic away...
