Hey all, I've had the Marvel Select Juggernaut since it came out- I preordered it years ago and recently I've encountered an issue with it. Now, when I got the figure I was around ten years old when it came out, (I'm a teenager now) and I played with it often. Now, it sits on the shelf in my collection but I picked it up off the shelf for the first time in a long time to have a look at it, and I noticed the ball joint in his right leg was extremely loose. His leg is so loose that it just spins around and kick forward on its own when I picked it up. It really bothers me. Anyway, I'm just wondering how to tighten the joint on his leg. Any help appreciated!!! Thanks in advance!!!

Where does it say bass joint? There's no such thing as a bass joint. Autocorrect probably changed it. EDIT: I found where it says bass joint in my OP. Autocorrect changed "ball joint" to "bass joint." I just changed it back. |

Maybe drop some super glue in it and work it until it dries. That should tighten it. Or maybe wegde som cotton into it. Some wrap rubber bands around hip joints to tighten them.

Alright thanks man, I'll try the super glue thing, but I'll have to buy some first. Really appreciate the help, as Marvel Select Juggernaut is my personal favorite figure. |

As unorthodox as it sounds I've read other MS collectors use this...  And do the same thing PJ said about the glue. Couple drops and move the joint till it dries. I've yet to try it, but I'm hearing good things, so I'm curious. |

I think anywhere like Walmart or any other department store. Let me know how it works. |

I'd just buy a new one for display while he is still cheap online.

I'm going to be buying some of that Pledge stuff show in the post above to tighten the joint, I'd rather not buy a new one, even though they are cheap online and they have them cheap at my local comic book store. Plus, mine is the original version from when it came out in 2010, the detail is slightly different on the original that the current rerelease. (The rerelease has the new Marvel Select logo rather than the old one, and the rerelease is a slight repaint) |

Bought this figure a couple months ago at a local comic shop. I love it. Extremely detailed.

It's my favorite figure of all time period. I like it better than any figure from any toy line!!! The only thing that could possibly top it for me is if an even BIGGER figure of his current costume gets released.  |
