Right Here's the problem. I had bought a Deluxe Aggression 2 Carlito, as I feel they are the best figures available, however I am bothered by the arms that have been used on this Carlito, as they have used the heavyweight mold, which, as you know tend to look huge, especially against the smaller torsos, such as the singlet and the Middleweight (Cena/Orton/Edge) I have no problem with the arms on heavyweight torsos, and they look more in place, but I decided to switch Carlitos arms for some smaller RA arms. However, the arms don't seem to fit correctly. I have used the boil method, and swapped the arms around but there is an odd looking space between both the shoulder balls, and the bicept as t is. Now I ahev seen pics on this site, and they show no such fault. Here's some pics of the problem, I don't know how they'll appear. I'm sure that's enough pictures for you to see my predicament. Now here's my question: Is there a way that I could lose this space, and the arms fit normal, like the arm would in an RA socket. If not, I'll change it back to the large arms that he came with. Thanks Wordlife

Try boiling the pin part of the shoulder ball point, and the hole area of the bicep again, quickly get them both while they're still hot and soft, and push them together really hard, that should do it.

Thanks
Just before I do it, can anyone who has done an arm switch between RA and DA confirm that the switch will actually work, and fit nicely. There's no point wasting my time in trying it, only to find out that the arms will never fit right.
Thanks again

Yes RA arms do struggle on DA but just make sure that there both soft and push it really hard....it should go in. Once you've done it send in the pics!!!!
