Hey everyone, I went to TRU to see if I could find Elite Kane which he's the only one Im missing but didnt find him!!! Anyways they had the legends series and I bought all of them to display loose and I notice that all the legends i got have loose joints  , anyone else had this problem  ? I just think it was odd!!!! |

I have 2 of everyone (3 Hawk) and none have any loose joints. The closest to a loose joint is on one of the Austin's shoulders but even that is tight enough to hold it's poses
Actually the problem I'm having is most of their ankles are too tight (forward/back motion) to put them in any really hyper exaggerated poses which is pretty much the point of Elite styled articulation.

it's just the nature of the beast....sometimes you'll get tight joints,sometimes loose...no matter what figures,from what comapnies,from what brand's,from what property, etc....there's no way to ever guarantee you'll get tight joints on any figure you buy...

^^ I had that same issue with my Legends Austin. Felt like anytime I tried to move his right foot that it would snap off at the joint.

My Steamboat and Hawk have extremely loose ankle joints. They've been up on display for about a week now and Hawk's fallen over twice. Steamboat hasn't fallen but he keeps leaning forward.

I have the opposite thing happen to me. My Sgt. Slaughter has what looks to be a super glued right leg joint. I tried to work on it but it seems I am close to snapping the peg that is in the crotch. So he looks funny in poses because one leg has no upper leg movement.

I had A problem with my Hawk having loose legs but some clear nail polish in the joints fix it (Thanks to my girlfriend and her macgyver mind). Elites are just made that way, some of mine are perfect but A few had A loose joint or two which doesnt really bother me but i'm fixing em all with the clear nail polish.
