Hey guys, i just got a hold of Steeljaw and noticed the same trouble everybody was talking about with his feet and being unable to stand well. On looking over the feet i noticed something interesting

there is a slot and notch in the grill that you can fit a small item into

like the spikes from Kreo Predaking
Image

they fit in very well, nice and snug
Image

and with those spikes acting as heels, he stands very nicely

easy fix and works so much better now

Interesting fix; i think if someone could Shapeways up a cheap set you might be onto something.

He needs a fix? Once I transformed him properly I had no problems getting him to stand. He's just not meant to have near-straight legs. Although, if you want that, this is a neat way to get him more stable. The parts look appropriate too.

Agreed. I have no problem standing my Steeljaw figure. You don't even have to use his tail as a "third leg" to keep him stable. Just adjust the angle of his knee bend, and you're good to go. You can even have his tail sticking straight up and back and still get a nice, stable stance out of Steeljaw. Just remember, his legs are like a canine's, not a human's.
