Just bought the Predaking re-issue and have a few questions. Do Predaking's arms revolve at the shoulder in the style of Bruticus? It looks like they ought to, but every time I try to move them there's worrying resistance. Also, Tantrum's fists don't seem to be able to hold his guns...

Welcome to Seibertron!

I recently got hold of the Predaking re-issue too and I see what you mean about the shoulders. I would have thought the arms would revolve - but maybe it's a case of taking the arm out of the joint and placing it either vertically or horizontally?

Tantrum's seems to hold his guns well on mine though.

The arms do turn, technically.

Be careful, the joint is always tight and since the connector is plastic well, accidents happen.

I think (and I always confuse which is tantrum) but I think the guns connect to his body somehow. Only the sword goes in his hand I think.

Thanks very much for the welcome and assistance, most grateful. I may be forced to find a piece of metal the right size to loosen the joint a little.

For Tantrum, the intructions say that the gun should fit in his fist, but the back of the gun clashes with the area immediately around his fist.
