JAKKS' production suffered horribly from this problem. It's also a problem in regards to half of my Basic figures. I wish Mattel would work on this. It's embarrassing when the Bootlegs from Dollar General have more even limbs, than a basic Brock Lesnar.

its not that its actually longer... one is bowed... boil some water.. put the figure in the water like you're going to do a boil n pop part switch... pull it out, get both legs perfectly straight, toss it into the fridge for 10 minutes... should fix the problem.. have had maybe 3 figures like that Thanks for the tip. I have a wobbly legged Texas Tornado that is in need of a quick fix. Sent from my HTC6600LVW using Tapatalk

Boiling a figure and then freezing it is a TERRIBLE idea. Rapid temp change is hell on plastic. If anything, hold the warm parts straight then run them under the faucet. It'll cool it more gradually and safer than heating and freezing joints, which is a wonderful way to damage the little plastic pegs.

Never said the freezer. The refrigerator would be no worse than cold water.

Good point, I was multitasking at work and missed that. People do freeze things often to unstick joints which is why my brain saw "fr-" and jumped to freezer haha

My Sheik from the legends two pack was like this. One leg is clearly at least 1/4 inch longer than the other.
