So I opened my Undisputed Era 3 pack today, & I’m having trouble with his left arm (shoulder joint) , it won’t rotate any further in either direction other than what’s pictured....this happened to my E56 AJ, & when I pushed it down it just became extremely loose, and was basically garbage. Any hints on how to get it to work properly? ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181209/c1198a2fccd611359dd158a875e2b1a3.jpg) ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181209/6a4780e559e3f34ec9294907ad896c10.jpg)

Do the same thing you did with the styles then wrap one of those clear elastics around the arm and push it into the shoulder socket. And the figure’s arm will work good as new.

Haha I threw the Styles out & bought a new one lol....don’t want to do that with Cole because that’s a 65$ purchase lol. What, I’m not sure what your telling me to do?

Unfortunately I haven't been able to do anything about this. Whatever they're using at the factory for this mold is clearly defective considering it has happened with every single figure I've bought with that torso for last few years, not sure why it's not being addressed.

I would heat it up in boiling water and try wiggling it around around a bit but that's all I can really suggest mind you.

Basically force the arm to rotate all the way. The arm will become very loose once it is able to do a full rotation. Then put one of those clear elastics used to hold the figure around his arm a few times so it’s tight. The just push it up his arm until it goes into the shoulder socket and the arm will be tight enough to hold poses. If you have a rubber band for braces use on of those. I have about three bags of those left from when our daughter had braces and they work great at tightening loose shoulders.

Although it really aggravates me this is a thing we have to do

I had the exact smae problem with my E56 Styles as well, made me so mad when it broke, thankfully the clear band method helped somewhat fix it. Fortunately my Cole wasn't the same as Styles
Aside from that arm problem, to be honest that Cole looks horrible, the hair line is misplaced horribly & stains on the head. Hopefully those are just bits of fabric on the torso and not actual stains. Whoever passed that Cole needs to rethink the job they're doing.
