Every single time I take my vintage figures apart to replace the O-ring and then put them back together, they have a loose head. Why is that? What can I do to make it tight again? They are not loose before I take them apart. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Check to make certian the body halves are properly mated up, as well as arm alignment. That done the heads may still be loose. I have used balsa wood shims, for verticle alignment issues, or small strips of cloth medical tape for the neck tightness. Good luck w/ that

Plummers tape works pretty good you can use multi layers of it and it doesent have any aheasive that would mess up the plastic or paint.
