Thanks for posting. It’s crappy that even with the “fix,” the fenders still won’t stay in place when in alt mode. I read of someone shaving down the tabs on the roof that clip into the front hood. It supposedly makes it feels less scary during the transformation to alt mode. I wonder if that would take off some of the pressure on the fenders and lead to a more flush appearance.

Thanks for sharing the remedy, actually I have exactly the same problem you have with the tracks in this video, but what i am doing is try to make the leg end (thigh end) tighter by adding contact glue over mushroom joint, because the leg end of mine is pretty loose as well, which is a common issue of this figure

i think dipping it in freshly boiled water first is a good idea. softens the plastic so you don't need as much force to push in the pin, and the plastic is less likely to crack. when heated with boiled water you can also bend the panels inwards a little, reducing the gap in the side panels in vehicle mode.

Good video 👍 I worry your pliers are too strong. I used a flat pair and the same sorta cloth but double folded and from both sides so it's softer. That way the cloth molds to the pin and creates a more precise force with no plastic damage

Wouldn't it be better to use a nail or another pin and use a hammer to drive that pin deeper into the hole? This way there won't be any issue to potentially scratch or break it.

Use a blow dryer to heat the plastic up then use the Vice grips with cloth. This will limit you getting a crack when pushing in the pegs.

I knew he had the loose legs on many copies. Found one at Ross for 9.99 and I got it. For that price it was hard to pass up. The legs on mine don't wobble. They are nice and tight. Atleast on my copy. The hood splitting gives me some trouble when transforming. And the lower corners of the forarms, the grey part there got a little scrape there on each one due to taking them out during transformation. That part also gives me some trouble getting them out. He is good. Not great or bad.
