[TALK] S.H. Figuarts Thread: The Next

[musashi03]

Yeah, it is unlikely for Double Extreme to be an exclusive since it's a final form and we know how much Toei loves to spam final forms nowadays... So more screentime = less likely to become an exclusive.

I didn't say it was for sure, just more likely.

Decade Complete and Kuuga Ultimate are regular releases after all.

is there anyway to fix it?

To fix a squeaky ratchety arm, this is what I've done with my Figuarts.

I use a teeny tiny dab of petroleum jelly or vaseline. If it is deep within, put it on a toothpick to carefully deliver the lubricant to the joint. Then carefully work the joint back and forth until it squeaks no more.

will it leave an odour?

HAHAHA! Ratchety arm with odor... hahaha Vaseline should not leave a bad odor.... Funny.

You might want to try WD40...

Why not try soaking the stiff part in hot water, then after loosening it, run it in cold water again.

Tried that. Didn't work very well. The vaseline though, sounds interesting. Will it leave any sticky residue or smell?

so true...:laugh:

Vaseline/petroleum jelly can have scentless type. I just use a generic brand. And it isn't sticky, it feels more greasy. So try to avoid getting it on any parts other than the ball joint; hence I recommend using a toothpick and steady hands.

If you do get a smudge a bit on a part you didn't mean to, tissue wipes it off easily enough.

Thanks. I'm going to try using it on a squeaky arm joint right now.
