I finished my theft of this today. I’m currently using a Captain America head, and while I love the sculpt, it may be a smidge too small.

Does anyone have both this Vulture figure and the new Cap from the Joe Fixit wave? If so, can you let me know if the Cap head fits on the Vulture body with no modifications?

i broke the ball joint on the dj figure any suggestions?

It happens. Hasbro's plastic tolerances can be inconsistent from one figure to the next.

Is the ball still stuck in the joint? If so, your best bet it to drill into the ball, eventually drilling off enough to reach in with a pair of needle-nosed pliers to get the debris out.

This tutorial shows how to replace a ball joint on a figure with a small screw. Guide to Repairing Broken Pegs with Screws - Mint Condition Customs

I found an older Captain America head that fit better and captures Hawk more precisely. I’m in love with how it turned out. Thanks, mcbarkerton.

My only issue is one leg is really lose because of how I feed it from DJ’s body. I am tempted to get a couple more and try again.

By the way, I saw that you tried to send me a message but that my box was full. I tried to send you an email via the website. Feel free to email me at [email protected].
