One foot is slightly looser than the other on mine, but both work fine. I wonder if you could heat up the foot and take the plastic cup out, then glue a rubber washer or someting like that in there to grip the peg/post, not sure of the mechanics as i haven't looked that close, but it might work. As far as the shoulder goes i'd go for Jun's idea, as i haven't a clue. You could always try emailing Hot Toys, send some pics and you never know you might get a replacement (prob have to ship the old one back to them though).nondisclosed_email@example.com (wookster)Mon, 08 Oct 2007 02:58:32 +0000 Re: Hot Toys ALIENS Alien Warriorhttps://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259202,from=rss#post259202https://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259202,from=rss#post259202will do. he's standing proudly next to my pred 2 for the moment. thinking about emptying some cases of 1/12 stuff and for the time being just filling it with cool alien stuff. definitely makes more of an impression than the 1/12 stuff. nondisclosed_email@example.com (eighthsamurai)Sun, 07 Oct 2007 10:44:08 +0000 Re: Hot Toys ALIENS Alien Warriorhttps://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259192,from=rss#post259192https://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259192,from=rss#post259192No probs Eight! glad to be of some help to a fellow collector. Actually you can apply the glue on both the ball and the socket, just remember to let it completely dry and harden. Also do not that over time, the glue may wear out and you may have to re-apply them again. The aliens are pretty sweet figures. Infact, I have been excercising a fair amount of self-control to stop myself from buying any of them. Do post some cool pics of them! nondisclosed_email@example.com (kazukiJuN)Sun, 07 Oct 2007 07:19:02 +0000 Re: Hot Toys ALIENS Alien Warriorhttps://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259191,from=rss#post259191https://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259191,from=rss#post259191thanks very much jun, i may try that. it is an ankle ball joint so this might be a very good solution. no metal parts, just the usual plastic so should be fine. so the glue goes onto the actual ball or in the socket? at the moment i'm using the stand i got with a generation life body to hold him up, coz any movement knocks the ankle off and one of the spine things on his back. total pain in the a-hole. on the plus side he looks frikking sweet. wish i'd got a couple more in the blister sale when these were going for dirt dirt cheap. thanks again jun!nondisclosed_email@example.com (eighthsamurai)Sun, 07 Oct 2007 06:43:15 +0000 Re: Hot Toys ALIENS Alien Warriorhttps://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259190,from=rss#post259190https://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259190,from=rss#post259190I dont have a hot toys alien warrior....cant really help u But if the joints of the alien are ball joints and the other side is a bracket to hold the ball you can try this trick. Just use some modelling glue, apply a layer at the ball joint. Let it dry then put it back. The joints should be tighter now due to the glue acting as an additional layer of "skin". Of cos, this is provided that the joints are the type where u can apply glue and wont damaged the figure (e.g metal parts will rust) not sure if this helps, hopefully it does.nondisclosed_email@example.com (kazukiJuN)Sun, 07 Oct 2007 06:39:18 +0000 Re: Hot Toys ALIENS Alien Warriorhttps://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259189,from=rss#post259189https://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259189,from=rss#post259189ok, solved the teeth thing. it was a simple push into place thing. stupid me. but does anyone else's alien's teeth hit his outside teeth and get blocked while coming out? nondisclosed_email@example.com (eighthsamurai)Sun, 07 Oct 2007 06:32:01 +0000 Re: Hot Toys ALIENS Alien Warriorhttps://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259188,from=rss#post259188https://bmedicom.runboard.com/p259188,from=rss#post259188guys i'm having some problems. i have just opened up my alien (after putting the pred together i'm on a bit of an HT box opening craze) and although he looks fantastic i'm really disappointed by a few things. but maybe you can help. 1. my left ankle is really loose - i think i remember this being a widespread problem. anyone else experience this? is there a fix? 2. my left shoulder is also very loose - the arm just won't take a pose at all, it just drops after a few seconds 3. how do you get the inner teeth to stay out, mine are difficult to force out and then spring back inside straight away. am i not doing something right? is it supposed to click into place or something? i don't want to force it in case i break something. 4. ALWAYS ALWAYS take your toys out when you get them to check them. i have nowhere to put them yet which is a bummer but from now on i'll take them out, check them and put them back. at least within the 30day returnable period. any help and i will love you guys forever. not that i don't already. nondisclosed_email@example.com (eighthsamurai)Sun, 07 Oct 2007 06:28:43 +0000 Re: Hot Toys ALIENS Alien Warriorhttps://bmedicom.runboard.com/p253501,from=rss#post253501https://bmedicom.runboard.com/p253501,from=rss#post253501I got mine today from Sideshow, great figure.
