You broke it completely? Either way what and how did you fix the issue? No more broken than it came out of the package. I'm referring to the factory defect in which the elbow joint falls out whenever the left arm is posed. I believed this issue was brought up by several people on this thread and the SDCC Gohan thread. Could you add it to the defect list? Also, I used some fancy super glue and glued the hinge onto the inside of Gohan's bicep. It's holding up very well, and I can mess around with my figure without worry of his arm detaching itself every two seconds. I just read this! My Gohan has the same problem, but it only pops off when I move the upper bicep. Did you put the super glue IN the socket? Doesn't that mean the elbow can't swivel anymore? (but then again i'm not even sure if the elbow is supposed to swivel slightly) Can you tell me what super glue you used, and how you stuck it in the hole? |

I saw this review and to this day it is the only ssj3 goku with hair that just falls. I recently got an SS3 goku loose. The first joint on his hair is fairly loose but I fixed it using some hot glue gun to tighten the joint. See: www.angelfire.com/mech/jinsaotome/WorkspaceSetup/HotGlue.htmlAlso anyone find a fix for SDCC Gohan? I recently got mine and the left elbow seems to fall of everytime I move the upper bicep swivel... Hey cool, that's the site I learned years ago from. I use the head articulation advice, except I use Vaseline, not olive oil or... nose sweat lol. |

Sure, I'll post a little tutorial some time. |

I would really appreciate a tutorial as well. My Gohan's arm falls off if you touch it. Thanks!

My Krillin's left foot pops out easily. I'm not sure if this is only on my figure.

I just got my SH Figuarts Vegeta today and I was really surprised that the legs were really loose. Is there anyway to fix this? Thanks!

It is a common fault with the Saiyan Saga Vegeta unfortunately. There are a few tips on the forum you can try.

Posting this here since no one responded to my post in the vegeta thread:
This is kind of a weird issue but the peg hole on the head that holds the scouter has appeared it has shrunk, lol. I know it sounds weird but when I first got this Vegeta I had him set up with the scouter head on for the longest time. Then I swapped heads for the normal one and have had that one on since and now when I try to put the scouter head back on it doesn't fit at all. Even the peg hole looks smaller than the other one. I feel like if I try to force it in the peg will break. Has anyone else had this issue? Any advice on how to fix it?

You might try using a hair dryer and heating the head for about twenty seconds and see if it will go back on the peg. I can't speak from experience with figuarts, but that's what I would do with any other figure, and I'd have success.
