I've gotten some movement out of him without breaking the tubes. The problem is that the forearm is two pieces that aren't quite lined up correctly for arm bending out of the package, and it's hard to rotate that inner part (at the elbow) because the tubes restrict how far you can move the outer part. So it's necessary to try to move the inner part independently of the outer part - and it's not easy. Plus, the right arm on mine had some extra plastic at the elbow joint. I worked on it a while and managed to rotate those inner parts of the forearms and bend through that extra plastic on the right. By no means is it great, but his arms aren't restricted to being straight anymore.

I would replace them with black gun tubing, like the ones used on older figs. I would leave a little if the existing ones to "plug" into the hoses. Just a thought
