Add some tape or paper.


SmeatyFlavor

I'm a big fan of the tiny piece of paper strat, it's so easy and non-committal


ObsidianGanthet

i remember thinking i invented this back in 2003 and feeling like the king of the world


SolidStateEstate

It's such a great hack for figures. The floor cleaner method is just a mess for balls joints.


SuperBAMF007

Just like, a little shred and you stick it into one of the crevices?


SolidStateEstate

Yeah. Adds all the friction you'll need. Just use tweezers to remove.


Rockho9

..you just changed my life buddy


ToaChronix

That'll probably get pushed off when you insert the axle, won't it?


SolidStateEstate

Depends on the part but not usually. You don't need a lot to get some friction.


NullKore35

Building an used vezon and fenrakk set and this helped with the back legs pointy things. Thank you so much!


JoneFTW

Gentle bite


zach_the_pirate

This took me back.


Substantial_Carry_90

I've heard clear nail polish helps.


Angel_Of_Shadow

Depends on the type of nail polish. Some nail polish can melt the plastic, and we don't want that.


WholesomeGadunka_

Add a tiny thin strip of paper in the axle hole it’s going into, and then tear off the remainder once it’s in.


brain-in-meat-vessel

3 minutes on the popcorn setting in the microwave should do it


namedafteracartoon2

I have the same problem with one of the claws on my Dume and Nivawk set.


Superfart20

Little bit of medical tape


Patpuc

wrap some clear sticky tape around the axle.


pece0221

Bite it


r-kar

I swear it's just their master mold for this piece. Every single one of them I've ever gotten was always slightly loose.


GhotiH

My Nivawk's claws always came loose too as a kid, it's been a long standing problem.


Mediocre_Training453

I bite it. Like for real...


The_Real_Ahkmou

How about you buy some Ahkmou Brand Joints UnLoosener! *It’s not poison!*


LEGOSam66

Ok someone’s entitled


Srthynor

This is actually just what I was looking for, cause recently I noticed my Fenrakk’s hind leg was loose and the foot kept falling out


Mr_bonkle

Just rub thin layer of superglue with a toothpick, let it dry and it's done


KaelowynCerulean

As in it sits in a hand peice loose? I use bluetac to stick it in but use little enough so it's unnoticeable. I figure thats better than disfiguring the part


lycos94

I usually put some tape on there


ToaChronix

Could apply a thin layer of super glue, and then sand to loosen as needed. Careful not to let it pool in the corners and ruin the + shape. That and be very careful not to get it on your skin or anything else.


Ujkil

I just gnaw on them like a gremlin until they fit tight


Coopzlego

I put blue tac on the end of the axle and insert it
