I saw a tip that suggested to detach the hood panels and clip them to the arms that hold his door-wings, but this kind of hinders the figure's show accuracy. What I've done is detach the hood panels, but ineasted of clipping them to the arms that hold the door-wings, I basically tucked the hinges under those same arms. In order to achieve this, you have to take the wheels that tab onto the chest plate, and point them slightly outward to create some clearance. Once you have tucked the hinges under the arms that hold the door-wings, press on the wheels to hold them in place. You can then position the panels, so that they rest just under the two tabs found on the figure's lower back.

Hopes this helps, everyone!

Perhaps I won't pass on him a third time....provided the price isn't the insane $17.50 or whatever at Target, as I think their ten dollar Deluxe sale ended yesterday.
