I'm assuming it's the ball joints in the shoulders.
The Boukenger mold is easy. Just maneuver the arm out so you have a clear view of where the ball joint is and put a small drop in. Hurricane Red was tricky, but doable. You have to maneuver the shoulder so you have a little space between the arm and the shoulder sleeve where you can see inside. You have to try and get a small drop in through the space so it will fall onto the joint.

use a toothpick, you don't have to coat the entire joint, just rub some on the joint that is exposed, and then work the joint around, it will spread through out. But don't put a drop, as it would be too much and will become too loose, use the toothpick tip to apply very little, and then slowly add more till you find the shoulder is no longer tight.

This is Burning Agito, but the concept is similar. Just shave some off, and take a few bits and mash it into the joint. I know that sounds weird, but it works, I've used dry bar soap on three Figuarts to save them from the SQUEAK. Just put it into the shoulder joint where it is in this picture, and move it around SLOWLY. Especially if it squeaks, because it's already got way too much friction if it's squeaking, and is possibly tearing already. When you do this, the soap should do the trick nicely. The best part is, most people HAVE dry bar soap already!

And per my Hauls post, there'll be no local/stateside release of Gokaigers, according to my source at Image Anime. Asked about the "back ordered" post on the Gokais and he said yes they'll be re releasing them soon, as they (Bandai) won't be releasing them here in the States. Take it for what you will. Until I hear different, I'll stick with this. Those who missed out (like me), this is your second chance. I'd hope so! Otherwise, we'd have the smelly fanboy syndrome! And no one wants that.

Personally i would rather spend the 3 dollars for the shock oil and get some toothpicks because it works faster and longer and it doesnt end up looking like that!! lol no offense but damn!
ive used the toothpick method with oil for my ryuranger and my kibarangers shoulders its very easy and it helped so much! |

I'm counting on it. And since it went down to a unheard of $27, figured it'd be a great time to order Odin who I've been playing a waiting game on. But man.....my trip....gonna be eating pb&j for the next week to catch up!

It happens, with Kuuga Growing Form, N Daguba Zeba, and the Dopants being among the ones that fall below the 3000 yen mark it just depends on the character and popularity.
