Problem with Voyager Ironhide's arms?

Ok so I have 2 voyager Ironhide's and something I noticed is that on both figs, is that one of his arms is messed up. It's like one is fairly easy to move while the other one makes a clicking noise and is really stubborn to move. Anyone having similiar problems and does anyone know a solution to it? Thanks in advance! :)

My Ironhide's right arm joint is a ratcheting joint, but his left isn't. It's action is much different then the other. My theory is that it's not a mistake or problem, but intentional. His weapon when it's combined is pretty big, and they may have decided to make the arm ratchet so it could hold that big gun and not droop. But then again, his left holds the weapon just fine as well, because it's still pretty stiff even though it doesn't click through it's movement.

My Ironhide that I display has a ratcheting joint on his left arm and not his right. It's not a big problem, but when I try to move his arm his tab that connects his bottom half to his upper half disconnects.

Mine is the same way. Both his arms are ratcheting, but the left one is a lot harder to move. Maybe Ratchet should look at his ratcheting problem.

Haha!

Welcome to seibertron my friend!

Yeah, my Ironhide is the same way. He's so big and bulky tho, that his arms can only move so much anyway. I still love him so tho.

Once I push those tires down horizontal, his arms move like the wind. I'm sure it still works.
