So I found a G1 Soundwave

Over all he is in pretty good shape for a toy nearly 30 years old. Found him mostly complete too. Has both his battery weapons and two (orignally with 3?) of his chrome missiles. Sadly no mini-con cassettes were with him. I think he has most of his orignal stickers too. No rubsign either, so I assume its from the 1984 run.
There are only two problems with him aside from the lack of cassettes. One is that one side of his tape door is broken. The button to release the door still works but all you have to do is pull on the door and it opens. Afraid that over time if mishandled the door will break off completely.
The other problem are his joints. They are extremely loose. Especially the legs, to the point where he'll slouch forward so he looks like he's snoozing on the job. Is there a fix for this? If not, its not huge problem.
I paid about $125 for him. Not sure if I paid too much for him or not.
I'll post pics later.
