dippergames420 Ouch.! Thanks, For the Head´s up though,. I Don´t Have a Dragon Ball super Broly Armored Broly Figuarts Yet. Yeah, apart from mine pulling a Saibaman on me, he's pretty cool. I did, thankfully, get him put back together again. He doesn't feel like he'll fall apart, but you can never be too cautious... |

I'm not sure if this is the best thread in which to post this, but I'll start here: does anybody know if Bluefin can do anything about a broken accessory? Yesterday I picked up my Roshi figure, which I hadn't touched in a few months, to mess around with my new King Piccolo. I took Roshi's glasses off, and they snapped in half at the bridge of the nose. I know I can try to glue them, but that area is so tiny that I'm not sure I'll have any success. What I really need are replacement glasses!

So unless you just got him, I'm afraid you can't get replacements unless you look on eBay or something like that. |

I've seen at least 3 or 4 problems like this one with Jiren. We all better be careful:   |

Tamashii Nations Quality is a joke, my friend.

Well, the list raised from 4 people to more than 10 by what I've seen in FB groups. Sh*t is real. Be very careful when trying to pop off his arms...

It seems I wasn't the only one who won the lottery here. I was unlucky with kid Goku, and this guy was gifted with his golden Frieza.  |

There probably isn't any good way to fix a break like that. From what I can tell, this probably stems from overly-stiff joints. I would recommend heating the peg hole up and pulling it out with tweezers, but you could very easily warp the joint with the wrong size of them. Judging from the images I've seen, the peg usually gets stuck pretty high up in the arm, so good luck pulling it out. This is precisely why I say that, while I am a Figuarts purist, Tamashii Nations quality is a laughing stock. gokubr I want to be that guy in the Facebook group. Twice the OHOHOHOHOHO for the price of one. |

Be careful. I've heard it's best to grab the base of the shoulder and the base of the bicep swivel (somewhere in the middle for both) and pull very gently. No twisting, turning, or finagling it, just lightly and slowly pull. |

I got my Jiren today and the right arm comes off easily, while the left arm is very stiff, even to swivel it it`s not easy, so I won`t force it. I`m not going to use the crossed arms as I had planned. I didn`t expect this kind of issue from Bandai.
Edit: the arm broke just by swiveling it...
