Hey guys, I have a quick question, hopefully it's okay to ask it here.
I recently got SHF MMPR Yellow (the US female mold), and the right arm is REALLY tough to move forward and back. It makes this awful creaking noise, and I'm sure it will break if I move it too much. Is this common with MMPR Yellow/Tigerranger? Is there a way to fix it? I'd really appreciate some help. I don't want to break it! Thank you in advance!

I had this problem with my HurricaneRed when I first got him. What I did was take the arm off and applied baby oil to the joint. I posed him as usual and the creakiness went away about two days later and the joint isn't tight anymore.
Hopefully this helps! |

Keep in mind time will wear away the tightness and then you'll have loose joints to tighten up. Just a word to the wise.

And be careful with tight hand joints. Because if you grab the arm too roughly trying to put the hand on you'll end up making that arm very loose. Trust me, my CycloneJoker is proof of this.

If you can pop the ball out of the socket, I think a much more accessible answer to your problem is household bar soap. Put a TINY chipping of it into the socket and reattach the ball. Work it around for a bit, pop it back out, and clean off/out the excess with a cue tip.
It works great with the leg joints, but I don't own and MMPR/Sentai Figuarts, so I'm not sure how their shoulders are built. |
