I was opening a few this weekend. The figures are great. The head swapping has been hit or miss so far. Sometimes they snap in perfectly, but two so far have ended up floppy and loose. That was the case for my Horrid Elite, but maybe it's because of his big headdress.
Does anyone have a suggestion for loose necks?

Does anyone have a suggestion for loose necks? Or, you could put a tiny piece of paper in the neck hole first. That might work too.

Thanks, the bit of paper sounds more up my alley. Less permanent and less likely for me to mess it up.

I just got mine and realized I messed up the backerkit somehow. Totally my fault, but I didn't order the right figures. Instead of my top 4, I apparently selected my 3-6 picks. I had selected 6 overall, then backed out on two due to finances. Because I didn't read closely enough in the final process, I had apparently deleted my two favorites. Fortunately I just preordered them now (finances have improved and there was a nice 15% off coupon in the box), and am happy with the ones I got. The only criticism I have is that the hands feel a little fragile and seem small compared to the rest of the build. A small nit to pick though, and they look great overall.

I caught an Fb exchange with one of the AWoK mods and a customer with the issue of the head socket being too loose to properly grab the upper neck ball. The first advice was to simply heat the head up as usual and squeeze it in place around the neck circumference. The idea is that the head was put on the neck ball while still hot and cooling down; with the neck ball a hair's-width out of place, which caused the retention ring in the socket to deform. Reheating it should enable the plastic to re-expand to normal.

Arrrrgh! USPS strikes again! AWOK didn't arrive. I checked the tracking and they are stuck in limbo somewhere! Can we do away with the postal service please? I never have issues like this with the other providers.

I got my 15 figures in an hour ago here at work and I have Pale and the Horrid Knight battling the Iron Factory Cybertronian Dinobot Swoop on my desk. SO MANY COLORS.
