Any of you have problem with Armada Wheeljack?

[dreamer]

This is my 4th Armada purchase, I am pretty impress by the look. Well, I must say this is one of the better looking Tranformers in the Armada series. However, I find the joints used in Wheeljack are pretty bad, they should have used the ball joints.

 

Anyway I want to know if any of you find the yellow color joint that connect the upper arm loose? I don't know if I m the unlucky one again, but my Wheeljack is swinging his arms side to side like a crazy monkey whenever I play with it

Mine doesn't seem to have that problem.

[TheSlup]

Mine doesn't have that prob. Sorry.

you may have to tighten that, when you transform it it is loose, but once you tighten it the arms stay stiff

I cant even find him...

They are made that way. If you pull the arms all the way out to the sides then postion them forward some, the yellow part of the arm is held by the hood.

I have the same problem as Nguyen_Dragon.

I have the same problem as Nguyen_Dragon.

 

I had the same problem before, but lucky I found one hiding behind the Hulk toys. You guys should look around, a lot of times, children or other people just hide the toys. In the past, I have found numberous rare items (especially MOTU, it's almost impossible to find some of the secondary characters). Anyway good luck to you guys.

 

As for the joint problem, I am quite surprised that I am the only one. Since there's no screw or anything holding that joint together, I thought many of you will have the same problem. Anyway I put a tiny piece of card paper to fill in the gap, it sorta works..

 

Some of you thought I was talking about the joint connecting the shoulder and the arm. To get a better idea what joint I am talking about, I used Remy's pix below.

 

 

After putting the tiny card in the gap, the arms stopped swinging... However, when I put the weapon in his hands, maybe it became heavier? It starts to moves slightly.

 

If you guys have any good idea to fix the problem, please let me know. Or will you guys just refund and find a better one?

Honestly I haven't yet seen Armada Wheeljack but I can probably help after I get him. #=$

Uh, if you pull the arms all the way out, you hear a snap and the arm is nice a snug, and the yellow is not even touching the hood..

Morbo you are in S.A. right? I saw wheeljack at the walmart by marbach as recently as yesterday, they had two. They also have hoist,rhinox,air razor.

[Three Storms]

Yah I'm in San Antonio. Thanks for the tip.

[O_B1Killa]

Mine is fine.....no problems as long as he stays MISB :lol:

I havent even seen the Air milatary or Emergency teams, Im not expecting to see Wheeljack for a while. Well, I managed to get Thrust back in March, and Ive seen him all of twice since then, so I cant expect to be lucky all the time.

Crapping Hell,
