I know this has been discussed ad nauseum, but I can't find the thread. Does anyone have a picture of a Marauder torso cracked open? I'm considering swapping arms and want to see what I'm getting myself into.
Thanks fellow Tankers.

Note the rubber band which appears to be inserted at the factory to fix the loose left shoulder.

That's awesome, man, thanks. So it looks like the pegs will probably snap, so gluing the seams will be the best way to put it back together. I wonder if that rubber band is present on all of them.

if you are not simply swapping MTF arms and want to add Joe arms - you have to modify the torso as the pegs on Joes are shorter and fatter. So the hole needs enlarged and the groove needs shortened.

No, I'm just gonna swap Marauder arms, so it shouldn't require too much interior modification. I was just curious about the pegs and if a rubber band would be necessary on the shoulders.

The rubber band is on the left arm of every figure I lift the arm on.
