Anyone else having trouble with them staying snug? If so, does anyone have a remedy? Thanx!

[Mourningstar]

Anybody?

You mean the way his shoulders swing around and lock to his body? Yeah, they're not really that tight and shaking mine around will cause them to separate and swing back. There's not much you can do about a really loosey loose one. I hear people recommending supergluing a joint and moving it constantly until it has dried, but the construction of this hinge joint is probably too large and heavy to allow the gluing trick.

I haven't had any problems with this figure.

I'm sorry that you got one of the lesser quality ones.

Don't feel to bad though, Leader Brawl is about to go out the window!

[Mourningstar]

Mine isn't that loose per say but whenever I move the arms his panels move with him and my Leader Prime is really stiff too so its a major inconvience

[Mourningstar]

Thanks everyone, does anyone else have any suggestions to fix it?

[Agent 007]

well you could build some longer tabs. Other than that there's not that much you can do. Mines got the same prob but it dosen't bother me.

[Mourningstar]

Thanks, my leader Megs is the same way so I'll just overlook it, afterall TF's can never always be perfect

A very tin layer of clear nail polish might help buffing up any sockets, tabs and joints that have endured too much play time.
